Oh, that's just great. Tell me about a a steering recall that can cause a crash and then tell me you don't have the parts to fix it and you're putting me on your mailing list. Terrific. Meanwhile, let's all pray, is that what you're telling folks, Mazda? Sort of gives a whole different meaning to zoom, zoom.

If you've got a lemon Mazda, don't take a chance. Get a Burdge attorney. Getting back your money for you (and making them pay us for our time, so you don't have to) is what we do. Since 1978.
