POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
OVERDRIVE LIGHT STARTED TO FLASH AT AROUND 70K MILES, THEN STOPPED. THEN STARTED AND STOPPED FOR THE NEXT 20K MILES AFTER WHICH MY TRANSMISSION IS LEAKING OIL AND MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THE OVERDRIVE IS BURNT. I LOOKED ON THE WEB AND FOUND OUT THAT THE MAZDA 626 '95 TRANSMISSION IS POORLY DESIGNED BECAUSE IT DOES NOT PROPERLY COOL THE TRANSMISSION OIL. *NLM

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:LINKAGES
I PURCHASED AN AUTOMOBILE, MAZDA 626, FROM SHEROLD SALMON AUTO SUPER STORE, IN ROME, GEORGIA. THE CAR IS DEFECTIVE. I SPOKE WITH THEIR MANAGER, MR. MAC JONES ABOUT THE CAR AND HE WAS VERY UNCOOPERATIVE AND RUDE. I WAS LEAD TO BELIEVE THAT IT WAS A GOOD CAR. MR. BILLY QUARRELS, THE SALESMAN WHO SHOWED ME THE CAR, STATED TO ME, THAT THE CAR WAS IN PERFECT CONDITION, A FANTASTIC QUALITY AND GOOD GRADE. WHEN IN FACT, THE CAR NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. THEY ADVERTISED GOODS AND SERVICES WITH THE INTENT NOT TO SELL THEM AS ADVERTISED. MR. QUARRELS MADE A FALSE AND MISLEADING STATEMENT ABOUT THE CAR, WHEN HE SAID, "IT WAS IN GOOD CONDITION", "AND THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH IT". THE RESPONCE I RECEIVE FROM THE COMPANY IS SIMPLY, "WE'RE A BIG POWERFUL DEALERSHIP, DO WHAT YOU CAN". SO, I'M WRITING TO YOU. THANK YOU.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I HAVE A 95 MAZDA 626 W/109K MILES ON IT. I AM RELIGIOUS ABOUT THE MAINTENANCE, OIL CHANGES EVER 3K, FUEL FILTER, WHATEVER MY CAR NEEDS- IT GETS. A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO I NOTICED SOMETHING INTERMITTENT HAPPENING W/MY CAR. I'M NOT A MECHANICAL TYPE, BUT I KNOW THAT IF I CAN'T REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM FOR MY MECHANICE CHANCES ARE HE CAN'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG TO FIX. LAST WEEKEND 2/15/03, I WAS OUT RUNNING ERRANDS AND IT WAS NOT JUST AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM ANYMORE. MY TRANSMISSION FELT LIKE IT WAS SLIPPING. I CALLED MY MECHANIC, HE REFERRED ME TO A TRANSMISSION SPECIALIST. HE SAYS THESE TYPES OF CARS (MAZDA 626) ARE KNOWN FOR THESE PROBLEMS. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET, IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF OTHER CONSUMERS OUT THERE WHO HAVE HAD FAILED TRANSMISSIONS EVEN WAY EARLIER THAN ME WHICH INDICATES TO ME THERE IS A NEED FOR A MANUFACTURE RECALL. I ALSO SAW THERE WERE MANY PEOPLE WHO HAD PROBLEMS WITH THEIR OXYGEN SENSORS, AS DID I. I HAVE CONTACTED A LAW FIRM IN MICHIGAN WHO I BELIEVE MAY BE FILING A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST MAZDA AND/OR FORD AND DEMANDING A RECALL ON THESE TRANSMISSIONS. HERE IS THEIR CONTACT INFORMATION LAW-FIRM OF ROY, SHECTER, AND VOCHT, P.C. IN MICHIGAN - THEY CAN BE REACHED AT (248) 540-7660 FAX AT (248) 540-0321. ALSO, HERE IS THE INTERNET LINK FOR ALL THE PEOPLE I FOUND COMPLAINING ABOUT THEIR MAZDA 626. I WONDER HOW MANY PEOPLE THERE REALLY ARE, THAT DON'T KNOW ABOUT THIS FORUM.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE, THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO JERK AND THE CARS RPM'S WOULD SHOOT UP WITHOUT THE CAR ACCELERATING. I HAD TO SLOW THE CAR TO 20 MPH TO BE ABLE TO SAFELY GET IT OFF THE INTERSTATE BUT THE CAR STILL JERKED VIOLENTLY.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I OWN A 1995 MAZDA 626 AND THE TRANSMISSION IS ABOUT TO BREAK. IT HAS 120,000 MILES ON IT, I KNOW ITS A LOT BUT STILL THE TRANSMISSIONS IN MY OTHER CARS LASTED TO ALMOST 200,000 MILES. MAZDA SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS DESIGN DEFECT AND I SHOULD NOT. I HEARD OF OTHER OWNERS HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE AND RIGHT NOW!
