Question Question about brakes TSB

I have about a month left on the manufacturers warranty. So, how exactly do I go about getting these squeaky brakes fixed?

I'm 22 and I just bought an 04 AT and seem to be one of many that is having this problem. I also saw that there is a TSB on the problem.

Which dealer do I go to? What exactly should I tell them?

The thing is, I told the mechanic at the used car dealer about it and he said there is nothing he can do about it. He is also an a$$hole.

Please help!

used car dealer dont give a **** about manufactures warranty.

if I were u , i will force Mazda to do ALL TSBs before warranty runs out.

just Read ALL TSBs that applies to you, walk in to a Mazda dealership and tell them *oh I got this and this and this and this .... problem, I checked the internet and its all known issues, and I want them all be fix*

check to make sure its not because the pads are down to the wear indicators. if they are, they just need to be replaced. they will not be replaced under warranty for being completely used up.


if they are squeeking because you have the GOOD pads that came on the car then you are crazy to get rid of them for pads that won't stop the car as well.

^yeah. And if you're miles are high enough that you're almost past warranty I doubt the will do brake pads under warranty anyway. New pads for free is asking a bit much when the originals are close to their expected life.


grats on the 8, & welcome
