Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2003 MAZDA 6S WITH THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. SINCE IT WAS NEW IT MADE NOISES AND DID NOT FEEL AS THOUGH IT WAS SHIFTING RIGHT. IT HANGS BETWEEN GEARS AND THERE IS A CONSIDERABLE HESITATION WHEN ACCELERATING. HAVE HAD IT TO THE DEALER FOUR TIMES, WENT THROUGH THE LEMON LAW, AND EVEN THOUGH WITH THE TECH IN THE CAR I GOT THE CAR TO GLITCH AND HANG, HE INDICATED NORMAL OPERATION. HE INSISTED THAT THE SWITCH TO SYNTHETIC TRANSMISSION FLUID IS THE CULPRIT; HOWEVER, QUALITY OF OPERATION HAS DECREASED SIGNIFICANTLY SINCE THE DEALER FLUSHED THE FLUID AND WENT BACK TO CONVENTIONAL TRANSMISSION FLUID. *LA
