Mazda RX-8 - Mazda RX-8 recall in the UK - shareen

I have a 2005 RX-8 which I purchased last year from a private seller. The car has had 3 previous owners. 2 weeks ago I discovered an oil leak and my engine flooded. My mechanic used to work for Mazda and told me that I needed a new oil cooling pipe because that is where the leak is coming from and it should of been recalled just as my starter should of been recalled too.

When I contacted Mazda and asked them if my car had any recalls they told me that they were not aware of any recalls for the RX-8 and I told them I read many statements on the internet about recalls and they just told me not to believe everything I read...........they keep on denying all knowledge......so I handed the phone to my mechanic who they told was a recall but if the car is not under warranty I would have to pay..................

The oil coling pipe is £600 and the starter is £400. I refuse to pay for the parts and service if it was a recall. If it is a manufacturing fault why on earth am I paying for it???

.What can I do about this??? Please help. Thank you for reading this long winded post!!

The whole car is a design problem I would not hold any hope of getting anything from Mazda,they are normally scrapped at this age due to so many expensive problems you are experiencing the start of many breakdowns to come.
