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/or 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 inspect your vehicle to verify the cause of the abnormal 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 five hours to complete. However, it may take longer depending on parts availability and the service workload at your Mazda dealership. Mazda will provide alternate transportation if needed,when your vehicle is at an authorized Mazda dealership for this repair.
