I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR BALL JOINTS HOWEVER NO PARTS WERE AVAILABLE AT THE TIME TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. WAITED OVER A YEAR AND THE BALL JOINT LET GO SO I WAS UNABLE TO DRIVE MY MAZDA. I TOOK IT TO THE REPAIR SHOP AND HAD IT FIXED. 3 MONTHS LATER I RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM MAZDA THAT THE PARTS WERE IN. I CALLED MAZDA 3 TIMES ASKING FOR A REIMBURSEMENT AS I HAD TO PAY OUT OF MY OWN POCKET FOR A RECALL THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIX. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY CALLS BACK. I WOULD LIKE TO BE COMPENSATED FOR MY OUT OF POCKET COSTS TO REPAIR THE BALL JOINTS.
