WE RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE IN AUGUST 2016 AND NO REMEDY HAS BEEN MADE. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. BALL JOINTS AND LOWER CONTROL ARMS ARE REPLACED EVERYDAY - WHAT'S THE DAM HOLD UP? I CALLED THE HOTLINE TWICE TODAY AND WAS DISCONNECTED AFTER BEING ON HOLD. I GUESS I HAVE TO GET MY ATTORNEY INVOLVED WITH MAZDA AND NGTSA.
