1 Battery Cable problem

Failure Date: 12/04/2016

My Mazda 3 will not start. I took my vehicle to a Mazda dealership and they gave a me a description of my issue and resolution (my issue: battery cable shorted and split in half due to a defaut wire harness). I googled the part number and I noticed a recall on my car related to the same exact part. Recall # 09v12600 Mazda is now telling me my issue is not covered under the recall because my VIN does not show it has been recalled. My confusion is as follows; the issue is the same, the resolution is the same, the part number is the same, the vehicle is the same (model and year). I really need your help in resolving my issue. Mazda is charging $1400 for the fix, I am looking any help from nhsta please, to help resolve my issue and have my issue be covered under a recall. The recall states potential impact of 25. 400 vehicles (leaving the door open for more or less vehicles). I am lucky the short did not cause a fire, I need your help to ensure the issue does not occur again. Looking for any good faith thank you very much for you help. Jessica.
