| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I don't remember the exact date of failure but it was close to the date i provided. i was driving down the road and my 2000 mazda protege started bucking. when i called the dealership and told them that i thought the transmission went bad they treated me like i didn't know what i was talking about. sure enough i dropped it off and they dianosed it with a bad transmission.it was 2000 miles out of warranty. thankfully mazda paid for the transmission being so recent out of warranty but i had to pay $700.00 in labor. since then i have found that those vehicles were plagued with that problem and since then the car just hasn't driven like it used too. i am sadly dissapointed since i used to work at a mazda dealership and the mazda b4000 i had also purchased has problems too. |
