#758717February 27, 2002
POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I FEEL THE NEED TO DO MY CIVIC DUTY BY REPORTING THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE A LOT OF 626 OWNERS ARE HAVING DRIVE-TRAIN-TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS AND EVENTUALLY ENOUGH OF US WILL GET THEM TO RECALL AND PAY FOR THE PROBLEM. FLASHING O/D OFF LIGHT STARTED FLASHING PERIODICAL ABOUT 12 MONTHS AGO. TOOK VEHICLE IN CONCERNING OTHER PROBLEMS TO INGRAM PARK MAZDA, 6990 NW LOOP 410 SAN ANTONIO, TX (210) 406-0122, AND THE AFTERNOON I PICKED UP THE CAR THE O/D OFF LIGHT STARTED FLASHING. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED JEFF VARHOFF, SERVICE CONSULTANT, AND HE TOLD ME THAT THE CLUTCH ON THOSE CARS ARE REALLY THIN AND THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS PROBABLY FIXING TO 'GO OUT'. HE SUGGESTED THAT I EITHER REPAIR IT NOW, LET IT GO ALL THE WAY OUT AND THEN GET IT FIXED OR GET RID OF THE CAR. IT WOULD BE AROUND $2500 TO FIX HE TOLD ME. ON THE EVENING OF FEB. 26, 2002 THE TRANSMISSION DID FINALLY GO OUT AND THE CAR WILL CRANK BUT THE ENGINE SPINS. I HAVE FOUND A LOT ON THE INTERNET CONCERNING THIS PROBLEM BUT MOST OF THE PROBLEMS HAPPENED EARLIER IN THE CARS LIFE-SPAN.*AK

STEERING:GEAR BOX (OTHER THAN RACK AND PINION)
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FAILED UNDER 80,000 MILES. IT WAS SUBJECT TO SAFETY RECALL BUT DEALER IN ATLANTA, GA, (RICK CASE MAZDA IN GWINNETT COUNTY) SAID THAT PROBLEM WAS DIFFERENT FROM RECALL AND CHARGED $2,954.03 FOR FIXING IT. IF THE DEALER WAS HONEST, AND I BELIEVE IT IS, THEN MAZDA HAS A PROBLEM WITH THIS TRANSMISSION.*AK
