Summary
SPECIAL SERVICE PROGRAM - SSPD5 - WARRANTY EXTENSION - MULTI-MODEL - VALVE STEM SEALS CLASS ACTION In conjunction with a Class Action Settlement, Mazda Motor Corporation has decided to conduct an extension of the Engine powertrain warranty related to excessive oil consumption. In addition, there is a Reimbursement Program, for limited qualifying out-of-pocket expenses (prior oil changes and additional oil purchased before the normal oil change interval due to oil consumption concerns) on certain CX-9, CX-5, Mazda6, Mazda3, and CX-30 vehicles equipped with a 2.5L turbocharged engine with the affected valve stem seals. For all Mazda dealers, an FAQ document for this Class Action Settlement and all documents for SSPD5 will be available on Mazda Global Service Support (MGSS) on or before May 13, 2024 concurrent with notification to the Settlement Class. Please review this entire communication in regards to updated coverage for Special Service Program SSPD5 and vehicles out of Powertrain Warranty. Parts & Warranty Information and Dealer FAQ’s on Mazda Global Service Support (MGSS) have been updated. • Update August 2025: The Court has clarified that under the settlement agreement, the Mazda Powertrain Limited Warranty Extension includes coverage for 7 years, 84,000 miles for all Powertrain components in the Warranty Booklet under the Powertrain Limited Warranty Parts List (i.e. without restriction to engine issues, oil consumption or valve stem seal issues). • Vehicles are covered only for valve stem seal related repairs for an additional 12,000 miles (96,000 miles total) if the vehicle is presented to a Mazda dealer by October 15, 2025. The overall Mazda Powertrain Limited Warranty Extension (i.e., for all other powertrain warranty repairs) does not apply to this coverage period. • Reimbursement for paid repairs prior to August 2025: Reimbursement will also be provided for any Class Member who was denied Powertrain Limited Warranty coverage and paid out-of-pocket for a qualifying Powertrain Limited Warranty repair during the applicable period of the SSPD5 campaign. The customer will need to go to https://www.mazdavalvestemsealsettlement.com/ to file a claim and contact JND Legal Administration with questions regarding reimbursement. • All Mazda warranty limitations apply to SSPD5 including branded vehicles, W-1, total loss, salvage, rebuilt, etc.. and all other limitations as outlined in the Dealer FAQ’s and Mazda Warranty Policies and Procedures 3.26.
