Purchased a secondhand BT50 (great car) we had it serviced at Toowoong Mazda before departing on 5 month trip to Darwin and back with our van on some very rough roads. Servicing was fine car went well but developed some really, really annoying rattles and bumps in front end. Decided to take to Toowoong Mazda to have it checked out. As it has aftermarket front suspension was told we would have to pay for labour for them to look at it.We paid, they looked, they found nothing and said nothing they can do until car returned to original state with genuine Mazda parts. Service rep was a jerk to say the least, very condescending to my wife who dropped car off and spun me some real rubbish about having to rebuild front end (car has only done 50k by the way) not happy paid for an hours labour and i think they probably spent 15 minutes on it at the most. I get the std text from Toowoong Mazda, please rate service or send "R" for reply for follow up call, sent R, still waiting for follow up call. Any how finally got around to checking front end myself, I am not a mechanic but can see when a bolt is missing, found three different bolts had rattled loose and fallen out of a brace bracket on each side of genuine Mazda bullbar, (same bar they still use today) replaced the bolts myself, noises gone, car lovely and quiet to drive again. Buy a Mazda by all means (its a great tow vehicle) but dont get these numpties to service it, go somewhere else.
