Consumer Description

2001 MAZDA 626 WITH AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM A MAZDA DEALER, IT WAS A 1 OWNER TRADE-IN WITH ONLY 25,000 ORIGINAL MILES. THE VEHICLE WENT THROUGH A 100 POINT INSPECTION FROM THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT. I ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR 5 DAYS BEFORE THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT. WHEN I PLACED THE TRANSMISSION IN REVERSE OR DRIVE, IT JUST REMAINED STILL AS IF IT WAS STILL IN PARK OR NEUTRAL, IT WAS TOWED TO A MAZDA DEALER AND DIAGNOSED WITH A TORQUE CONVERTER FAILURE. THIS IS APPARENTLY A MAJOR ISSUE WITH MOST MAZDA 626'S, OLD AND NEW! *TR
