Consumer Description

IMMEDIATELY AFTER USED CAR PURCHASE IN JUNE 2003 THE 1997 MAZDA 626 REQUIRED TRANSMISSION REBUILD. SIX MONTHS LATER AT MY EXPENSE OVER $3000 REQUIRED TO REBUILD TRANSMISSION.

THE ENGINE THERMOSTAT REPLACEMENT, BATTERY REPLACEMENT, OIL CHANGE AND TUNEUP HAVE NOT PREVENTED A RECURRENCE.
