I took my car to dealer to get the CEL for the cat cleared and they say it's not under warranty from Mazda. It only covers the engine (core). Where did you see the cat being under warrantied for 8 years. I would love to have the proof and shove it right at the dealer's face and have them replace my cat.

Federal law. Makers have to cover certain emissions systems components for 8 years or 80k miles. If you fail emissions because of a covered component, Mazda has to fix it. The catalytic is covered.
