Engine Burning Oil problems of the 2008 Mazda CX-7

There was blue smoke in 2013 and the engine oil had been burned to nearly empty. It was fixed with my own pocket but in happen again. Fyi, the first time it happened at almost 40,000 miles and right now is 62000miles. Right now there is a problem of the power steering pump which may out of control when it makes turn. I read anticle say that Mazda will recall cx 7 including year 2008. When I call them today they said no such kind of recall. I read a lots of article complaining Mazda Cx-7 regarding of these two issue. Hope your department can follow up to protect consumer. Also when the car runs in highway of fast enough there's no smoke but when it runs slow the smoke come out tremendously. Thanks.

I have white smoke coming out of my tailpipe when it idles. I also have a burning oil smell in my car. I have to roll down the windows when I get into my car. I have a 2 1/2 year old and I cant imagine its safe for her to breath this in. I took it to green Mazda in springfield IL to be repaired, this is a known issue with this vehicle. They installed a ventilation kit. That did not solve the problem. I took it back and now they say there is no problem. So they saw a problem and installed a ventilation kit but now that is doing the same thing there is not a problem. The next step is to replace the turbo, which they will not do. This should be a safety recall.

Sudden loss of power as the turbo stopped working. The Mazda dealership claimed that the turbo broke due to sludge in the engine. There was a lot of sludge in the engine, however, the car was well maintained with regular oil changes. It seems that the median engine temperature is hotter than is appropriate for the specified oil in the owners manual. This results in oil burning and sticking to the inside of the engine. Eventually a piece of "sludge" will come loose and clog the oil tube to the turbo, resulting in the turbo unit overheating and breaking. Mazda seems to be aware of this problem as they were pressured to extend the warranty on this part. However, the problem is very serious and there should be a recall of the turbo unit and clarification in the owner's manual. Mazda has yet to agree to fix the turbo and "sludge" in my engine. They are still insisting that I did not maintain the vehicle well. Fyi- I was a car designer with Honda/Acura for 4 years who designed the 2009 - 2012 mdx. I am stating this because I know SUV's and how to maintain them very well.

Mazda cx7- turbo engine failure. Excessive oil consumption and burning oil lead to turbo failure and ceased engine. June 30, 2010. Had to pay $10,000 to replace engine and other major parts in SUV. Mazda blamed customer although there are 100's of complaints regarding this very issue whereas the customer was ultimately blamed. It is well documented about the excessive engine oil consumption and engine ceasing on these vehicle. Each complaint has the same problems and end results. Customer is blamed for lack of oil changes and therefore blamed on the failure of this vehicle. I eventually had all of my oil change certificates and was told by Mazda they do not honor hand written receipts. Mazda only wanted computerized receipts. All of my maintenance was done by mechanics that have a combined 50 years in business . That was not good enough for them. There fore I had to pay this huge bill to get my vehicle back.
