2016 Mazda MAZDA6 Steering Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1614154
Internal NHTSA #	11271621
Manufacurer	Mazda Motor Corp.
Brand	MAZDA
Model	MAZDA6
Model Year	2016
File date	23/10/19
Component	STEERING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Clunk noise driving on city street, on driver's side when wheels are fully turned to the left and when car is stationary and right before accelerating. Service advisor from the repair shop informed me not to drive the car because it is not safe and may cause an accident. The manufacturer warranty is no longer effective and it expired 2018. The invoice total is $901. 25, parts cost is $83. 34 labor of $809. 99 + tax. Called mazda's 800 number and informed if manufacturer defect is my recourse with no avail. I am reaching out to nhtsb if other mazda owners have encounter the same problem and avoid future costly expense for senior citizens. I feel that since it is a manufacturer's defect, as attested to by the service advisor and mazda hotline representative, the least they could do is cover the expense since our current mileage is so low (21,589 miles for 4 years). We hope that we can be assisted with this dilemma as it relates to safety and cost. Invoice is attached thank you for you assistance.
