Re: anyone have any stock front coil springs?
I was recently informed by another user that there is a lifetime warranty on the springs and automatic seatbelts. I'll send you the links for the info if you still need the springs.

Re: anyone have any stock front coil springs?
Why would there be a lifetime warranty on a part that usually needs to be replaced.
No such thing on springs.

It's actually a recall on the front springs. And yes it exists. Quite a few members have taken advantage of it.Hoodzy wrote:Why would there be a lifetime warranty on a part that usually needs to be replaced.

Re: anyone have any stock front coil springs?
I believe the front springs only have a 1 time recall, so if its been done before on the car, it cannot be done again, where as the seat belts are a lifetime recall since it's a design flaw.
I'd call mazda to check, otherwise I've got a set of stock springs laying around I can sell to ya.

Re: anyone have any stock front coil springs?
Yes it exists. the recall number is kicking around on here.
You can tell if its been done or not by the bolted on extra brackets.

Re: anyone have any stock front coil springs?
I think it's canada only?? Plus it doesn't say they'd replace the springs. they'd only put on brackets to make sure a broken spring didn't puncture the tire.

Well everyone who's taken advantage of the recall has had their springs replaced. Ryan for one...Hoodzy wrote:I think it's canada only?? Plus it doesn't say they'd replace the springs. they'd only put on brackets to make sure a broken spring didn't puncture the tire.

Re: anyone have any stock front coil springs?
They will replace broken springs, obviously. What kind of retarded recall would leave the broken part? what if toyota only installed a big spring on their flucked pedals?
They replace the springs, put on the safety bracket, and will not replace your tire(s)
MX-3 SUSPENSION:FRONT:SPRINGS:COIL SPRINGS Recall – ID# 19979
Description
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER VEHICLES ORIGINALLY SOLD OR CURRENTLY REGISTERED IN THE FOLLOWING STATES: CONNECTICUT, DELAWARE, ILLINOIS, INDIANA, IOWA, MAINE, MARYLAND, MASSACHUSETTS, MICHIGAN, MINNESOTA, NW HAMPSHIRE, NEW JERSEY, NEW YORK, OHIO, PENNSYLVANIA, RHODE ISLAND, VERMONT, WEST VIRGINIA, WISCONSIN, AND WASHINGTON, DC. IN AREAS WHERE LARGE QUANTITIES OF ROAD SALT ARE USED, CORROSIVE PITS CAN DEVELOP ON THE SURFACE OF THE FRONT SUSPENSION COIL SPRING. REPEATED USE CAN EVENTUALLY CAUSE THE COIL SPRING TO BREAK AND A TIRE COULD BE PUNCTURED FROM CONTACT WITH THE BROKEN COIL SPRING.
Consequence
THIS CONDITION INCREASES THE RISK OF A VEHICLE CRASH.
Remedy
DEALERS WILL INSTALL A GUARD ASSEMBLY WHICH WILL PREVENT THE BROKEN COIL SPRING FROM CONTACTING THE TIRE. IN ADDITION TO PERFORMING THE RECALL CAMPAIGN, MAZDA IS EXTENDING THE WARRANTY COVERAGE ON THE FRONT COIL SPRINGS FOR THE LIFT OF THE VEHICLE. IF OWNERS HAVE ALREADY PAID FOR THE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF THESE FRONT COIL SPRINGS, DUE TO ROAD SALT DAMAGE, MAZDA WILL REIMBURSE THESE OWNERS FOR REASONABLE EXPENSES.
Potential Units Affected
25000
Notes

Thats an american version, but its all the same.

Did you read it?
It sits in the spring base. You can't exactly wash in there.
