I’m currently dealing with the Cracked head issue. My mileage is at 120,433, just 400 miles outside of warranty, and Mazda is only willing to contribute $1,000 for good will, with the dealership helping a little as well, making my total repair bill $5,800. I’ve contacted Mazda and the dealership for reconsideration and neither will budge.

Anyone have any luck with some pointers? Should I contact BBBAuto for a dispute, keep trying something else, or just give in and pay the dealership for the repairs?

I owe about $9k on the car, it’s a 2016 Signature. Curious how you guys would handle this. Should I keep the car after fixing it, or try and sell it?

Pic for attention.

It’s my first year gardening, Zone 5b. I picked out a lot of unique varieties of tomatoes (and peppers, but those aren’t in the ground yet) and have grown them all from seed. (Blue Beauty, Black Cherry, Alice Dream, Romas) I went out of town for a week and my tomatoes didn’t get watered… Honestly, I’m surprised how bad they are looking, after just one week, but it’s where we are… Is there any coming back for these, or are they cooked? I have a lot of varieties that I won’t find locally, so I’m really hoping these can be recovered, but thinking I may have to dig them out and replant plants from a local garden store if I want any tomatoes this year. Can anyone share any insight? If they can be saved, what steps would you recommend I take from here? Thanks,
