Consumer Description

THE TRANSMISSION MODULE (TCM) IS DAMAGED QUICKLY BECAUSE IT MELTS THE SILICONE THAT PROTECTS IT, SINCE THE HEAT EMITTED BY THE ENGINE IS VERY DIRECT, WHICH CAUSES THE TCM TO BE DAMAGED AND THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT WORK. THIS PROBLEM IS VERY COMMON IN THE MAZDA3-2010 THEREFORE IT IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT
