CX-5 bolt gave out 8 days after oil change and inspection at Mazda, causing catastrophic engine damage
They said it wasn’t due to the mechanics making an error, but how do I know that?
It was 8 days after an oil change and full inspection where they were touching the engine and they didn’t say anything about it.
I looked it up and it’s commonly caused by technician error during the oil change.
Mazda corporate agreed to pay $2,500 but that’s only a third of the cost
How do I know if it’s due to the mechanics and if their insurance should pay?
It’s a 2017 CX-5 GT for context
Thank you so much!
