I noticed my breaks were smoking and stopped driving. I then noticed oil leaking from my engine which had blown into my breaks, causing the smoke. There was no check engine indicator on my dashboard, nor did it indicate that my engine had overheated. There was no indication that there was any issues with the vehicle until i noticed the smoke coming from my brakes. I towed the vehicle to the Captial Mazda Dealership in San Jose, CA.   Per Mazda Dealership Repair Estimate: \"cylinder head cracked by cylinders 2 and 3\".   When i asked the dealership service center why this happened, their only response was it was a engine failure and that \"over time the cylinder can become warped and crack\"  and while it that doesn't happen often \"it can happen\"  I asked if there was anything I did that caused this, their only response was \"i can check with the technician again\".   Apparently I did not purchase the \"extended warranty\" so while the repairs are no fault of my own, I have to pay the $6,000 repair cost.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2019","productMake":"MAZDA","productModel":"CX-5","manufacturer":"Mazda Motor Corp."}]}]}
