NHTSA complaint #10199852, filed 2007-08“Mazda is aware that the CX-7 is a horribly made car which can be noted with the extensive list of recalls which the company has put out since its creation. Engine failure being the biggest concern to the safety of people on the road. Engine failure at 70mph on a busy highway can result in death.
