NHTSA Complaint #10070769 — 2001 MAZDA 626

I'VE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR SINCE 03/2001. I PURCHASED IT NEW FROM MARLIN MAZDA. THIS CAR HAS STALLED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING. THE SUNROOF AND CORNER ROOF BETWEEN THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND DRIVER DOOR LEAKED WATER WHEN IT WOULD RAIN. JANUARY 2003 MY CAR RAN HOT, THE AIR CONDITIONING WAS NOT BLOWING.THEY SAID THEY REPLACED THE HEAD ON MY ENGINE AND THAT SOME HOSE WAS NOT CONNECTED, THIS IS WHY MY AIR WASN'T BLOWING? MY CAR STALLED ON ME 08/27/03. NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. THE CAR WASN'T EVEN HOT. TOWED TO MARLIN MAZDA.I PAID FOR NEW BATTERY. I ASKED THEM TO CHAECK UNDER HOOD TO BE SURE NO OTHER PROBLEMS, THEY TOLD ME AT LEAST $500 TO CHECK ENGINE THOROUGHLY? WEEK LATER STALL AGAIN. THIS TIME TOWED TO OCEAN MAZDA,KNOCKING NOISE UNDER HOOD, THEY SAID IT IS THE ENGINE AND OIL PUMP. THEY TRIED TO LOOK UP FACTORY WARRANTY, THEY'RE NOT REPAIRING IT BECAUSE MARLIN MAZDA VOIDED MY WARRANTY(MARLIN SAID SLUDGE IN ENGINE/ CODE W8.) THAT WAS A LIE! I HAVE BEEN GETTING SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ON MY CAR. OCEAN MAZDA CHECKED ENGINE NO SLUDGE BUT THEY CAN'T DO REPAIR WORK WITHOUT WARRANTY. THEY TRIED TO CALL DISTRICT MANAGER BECAUSE CODE W8 DOES NOT EXIST!!! ALSO, I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY WHICH THEY SEEM TO HAVE NO RECORD OF? I HAVE SPOKEN TO MAZDA AMERICAN CREDIT TO GET COPIES OF LOAN PAPERS THAT SHOWS PURCHASE OF EXTENDED WARRANTY. I GUESS THE NEXT STEP IS A LAW SUIT. AFTER ALL THESE HEADACHES I DON'T EVEN WANT THIS CAR ANYMORE. I AM ALREADY PAYING A HIGH CAR NOTE FOR EXTRA COVERAGE AND THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE THE DESCENCY TO REPAIR MY CAR.
