The warranty coverage for applicable repair is extended to 7 years (84 months) from the original warranty start date or 90,000 miles, whichever comes first. If you are a recipient of this notice, your vehicle is included in this warranty extension program. What is the problem? On some vehicles, when driving under high load or at high speeds, increased oil temperature inside the transfer unit may result in poor lubrication. Continued driving under these conditions may result in abnormal noise and transfer unit damage, and may cause PTU oil leakage. The warranty extension applies only to this condition. What will Mazda do? If your vehicle experiences this problem, your Mazda dealer will insepct your vehicle to verify the cause of the abonormal noise and/or oil leak. If necessary, the dealer will replace the PTU, free of charge during the terms of this warranty extension program. The repair should take approximately three hours to complete. However, it may take longer depending on parts availability and the service workload at your Mazda dealership. As a reminder, Mazda may provide alternate transportation when your vehicle is at an authorized Mazda dealership for a warranty repair. To be eligible for alternate transportation, your vehicle must be within the mileage and time limitations under the Mazda New Vehicle Limited Warranty or Powertrain Limited Warranty for 2007 and newer model years, and adhere to the Rental Car Reimbursement policy. Ask your dealer for details about the Mazda Rental Car Reimbursement Program.
