Consumer Description

MY 2001 626 (4 CYLINDER) TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT UNDER 81,000 MILES!!!! THE ONLY WARNING SIGN WAS IT WOULDN'T SHIFT INTO REVERSE ONE DAY, THEN BOOM, IT BARELY MOVED FORWARD AGAIN. I HAVE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR AND I HAVE MOSTLY OWNED MAZDA'S SO IMAGINE MY SURPRISE AND DISAPPOINTMENT THAT IT HAPPENED JUST AFTER I LOST MY JOB. NOW I HAVE NO JOB, NO TRANSPORTATION AND NO MEANS TO GET A JOB WITHOUT IT. MAZDA APPARENTLY KNEW THERE WERE PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSIONS AND CHOSE TO DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE OR RECOMMEND A MAZDA EVER AGAIN! AS A RESULT OF YOUR BLATANT FAILURE TO INFORM YOUR CUSTOMERS YOU HAVE LOST AT LEAST ONE GOOD CUSTOMER FOREVER.
