Question Recall Help

I am interested in buying a 1993 RX-7 right about now, and the recall history of it is unknown. What are the chances that it can still be fixed for recall bugs by mazda? Any help on this would be very much appreciated.

Thank you

If the recalls haven't been done, you can still have them done. There were only 3 that I know of for the '93.

If you get the car, you can call Mazda USA with the VIN and they will let you know if any of the recalls haven't been performed on the car.

this is from the 1993-1995 mazda rx-7 buyers guide. ---


Recalls

There were 3 recalls on these cars: brakes (vacuum hose modification), new (high temp) fuel lines, and cooling system (pressure cap and fan control module). Most cars have had the cooling system recall done (the recall was issued early on). However, I have seen quite a few cars that had not had the two remaining recalls done. Mazda dealerships are supposed to place a sticker on the driver's side door jamb when they perform a recall... but the cars are often missing the sticker for various reasons (fell off, never applied, etc.). '94 and '95 models may not be subject to all of the recalls. The best thing to do is to call Mazda Customer Relations (1-800-222-5500) with the VIN number and ask which recalls the car requires and if they have been performed. You can also find out what, if any, warranty work has been done on the car. If any recall has not been performed, a Mazda dealership should perform them free of charge.

Thumbs up Thanks for the help guys

Thanks a bunch...that's exactly what I needed to know. Also, since this is my first 7, I've been trying to do a lot of basic care reading. Do you have any suggestions where to find a good online site for this? Thanks again for any help.

Yeah, you already found it, right here. You may check the archives of old questions. You can find other vendors sites and things, but you'll learn a hell of a lot more from this site just by asking questions! Good luck>
