1994 MAZDA 626 Power Train Problems

TRANSMISSION WON'T SHIFT PROPERLY. WHEN IT DOES SHIFT, IT SHIFTS HARD. OD LIGHT FLASHES. WAS DRIVING VEHICLE FROM WORK AND TOOK OFF FROM A COMPLETE STOP. THE CAR REVVED UP REAL HIGH BUT WOULDN'T SHIFT. MADE IT HOME, AND NOW VEHICLE WON'T MOVE.

THE HOLD LIGHT IS CONTINUALLY FLASHING. THIS STARTED ON SUNDAY MAY 16, 2010. I CALLED MAZDA MAPLE SHADE MADE AN APPT. I TOOK THE CAR IN ON MAY 19TH AT 7:30 AM. I PICKED THE CAR UP ON MAY 20TH AT 7:30 AM AND AS I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AT 3 PM., THE PROBLEM HAS WORSEN. I CALLED MAZDA ON MAY 21TH AT 8 AM AND I AM WAITING FOR THEM TO RETURN MY CALL. IT IS NOW 10:24 AM. *TR

THE PROBLEM, I HAVE IS ABOUT MY TRANSMISSION. I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY FROM TAUNTON MA ABOUT 20 MILES AWAY FROM BROCKTON MA WHERE I LIVE. I WAS GOING ABOUT 60 MPH, THE SPEED LIMIT. OUT OF NOWHERE, MY TRANSMISSION STARTED SLIPPING. WHERE I WAS DRIVING, THERE WERE THREE LANES. LUCKILY I WAS IN THE MIDDLE LANE AND HAD JUST ENOUGH SPEED TO GET TO THE BREAKDOWN LANE. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WITH NO PHONE I DID KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON MY CAR NEVER SHOWED SUCH SIGN OF THIS SORT I WAS WITH MY FRIEND WHO TOLD ME TO PUT THE CAR IN D2. THE CAR STARTED TO MOVE SLOWLY, THAN STARTED SLIPPING AFTER I LET MY FOOT OFF THE GAS, THAN PUSHED IT AGAIN, IT STARTED JERKING A LITTLE, THEN STARTED TO MOVE AGAIN. I BARELY MADE IT TO BROCKTON.

THE HOLD LIGHT IS FLASHING AND IT DOESN'T CHANGE GEARS CORRECTLY. HAD THE TRASMISSION FLUID CHANGED AND UN-HOOKED THE BATTERY FOR 5 MINUTES AND IT FIXED THE PROBLEM FOR A DAY AND A HALF. A FRIEND IS A MECHANIC AND FIXED IT THE FIRST TIME, BUT NOW WE WILL PROBABLY HAVE TO PUT IN A NEW OR REBUILT TRANSMISSION. I BOUGHT IT USED IN JAN 03 WITH 122,000 MILES ON IT.

WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PUT INTO GEAR, THE VEHICLE VIOLENTLY JERKED.*JB

VEHICLE HAS THE SAME DEFECT AS RECALL 99I005000/SPEEDOMETER FAILURE, SPEEDOMETER GEAR FAILED, CAUSING TRANSMISSION TO STAY IN THIRD GEAR. ALSO A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER.*AK

MY CAR/TRANSMISSION IS AN ACCIDENT JUST WAITING TO HAPPEN. YOU NEVER KNOW IF YOU ARE GOING TO PULL OUT SAFELY IN TRAFFIC BECAUSE OF TRANSMISSION FAILURE. I HAD IT REPLACED LAST YEAR AT A COST OF $2,200 AND IT STILL DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY. HAD THE SPEEDOMETER GEAR SET REPLACED BY RECALL AND IT STILL DOESN'T WORK. HAD A NEW NUETRAL SAFETY SWITCH REPLACED TODAY ALONG WITH THE "NEW" TRANSMISSION NOT HAVING ENOUGH FLUID WHICH CONSITUTED A FLUSHING OF THE SYSTEM AND MORE FLUID BEING PUT IN. UPON LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP TODAY, MY "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT CAME ON. CALL DEARLERSHIP, NOW THEY TELL ME I NEED TO BRING IN MONDAY TO HAVE THE "02" SENSOR REPLACED. MY COSTS ARE CLIMBING OVER $3,000 NOW. ALL I WANT IS A SAFE CAR TO DRIVE FOR ME AND MY CHILDREN. I'M A SINGLE MOM RAISING TWO CHILDREN AND THIS IS DRAINING ME, PHYSICALLY,...

OVERDRIVE OFF LIGHT FLASHES ON, AND TRANSMISSION STAYED IN 3RD GEAR . THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A CRASH. ALSO, RECALL 99I005000/ SPEEDOMETER/ODOMETER WAS ISSUED. BUT THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL DUE TO VIN ALTHOUGH IT HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. *AK *ML

WHEN TRAVELING AT REGULAR SPEED SPEEDOMETER JUMPS BACK AND FORTH. *AK
