Consumer Description

MY 1997 MAZDA 626 HAD A FAILURE OF THE TRANSMISSION. THE OD LIGHT KEPT FLASHING AND THE CAR SHIFTED ERRATICALLY. THE COST TO REBUILD WAS $1800.00. I HAVE READ ABOUT THIS PROBLEM OCCURRING IN MANY OTHER OLDER MAZDA CARS AS WELL. THE PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED IN THE SUMMER OF 2006. I WAS FORCED TO PUT THE CAR UP FOR SEVERAL MONTHS WHILE I SAVED THE MONEY FOR THE REPAIRS. IT WAS REPAIRED IN THE SUMMER OF 2007. THE CAR TRANSMISSION IS AGAIN ACTING ERRATICALLY. THERE ARE MANY POSTINGS ON THE WEB THAT INDICATE THAT THERE IS REASON TO BELIEVE THAT THE TRANSMISSIONS IN THESE CARS ARE FAULTY. *TR
