1 Power Steering Fluid problem

Failure Date: 04/14/2014

On or about April 15th , during an oil change and all fluid inspection by ewing ,plano ,TX, it was discovered that there was a power steering leak. And was told that I should bring the car to a Mazda dealership ASAP after I called Mazda USA. After several attempts that lasted a week, to get Mazda USA on the phone, I was able to speak to a anthony that refused to give his last name, I explained him all the details and he told me that the car 3/36 warranty had expired by few days( I purchased the car new on 3/16/2011) I only had less than 32000 miles on the car,however good news he said the power steering was covered under the 5/60 warranty, of course he didn't know what he was talking about, because everyone I spoke to told me that the car steering was not covered,after lengthy phone conversations with anthony at 18002225500 opt 6- 2 and then extension 1151 complain # r18311329, I was able to secure an appointment at el dorado Mazda in mckinney,TX and a loaner car for 2 days, the manager lee tuckett, a total run around ,lee tuckett told me that there was a seepage of fluid from the power steering and was not covered under the 5/60. I called Mazda headquarters infuriated but anthony was never available and never returned my phone calls , my young children drive the car, power steering leakage are dangerous, I found out thru internet blogging many people have the same problem. I would never buy anther Mazda,and hope the agency would investigate Mazda ,safety item should always be covered under warranty ( parity sincerely joe capasso 4699649322).
