Consumer Description

MY 1996 MAZDA 626 HAD BEEN EXPERIENCING TROUBLE SHIFTING AND THE O/D OFF LIGHT KEPT FLASHING SO I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS ABOUT TO GO. I FOUND THIS REALLY STRANGE SINCE THE CAR ONLY HAS 81K MILES ON IT AND I THOUGHT MAZDA WAS SUPPOSED TO BE REALLY RELIABLE. I HAVE SINCE FOUND OUT THAT MANY HAVE HAD THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM (SEE THESE 2 WEBSITES: HTTP://WWW.CARTRACKERS.COM/FORUMS/LIVE/YOURLEMON/189.HTML ; HTTP://WWW.CARSURVEY.ORG/VIEWMORECOMMENTS_REVIEW_17103_3.HTML ) AND MAZDA HAS DONE NOTHING TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM. *AK
