| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The first transmission failure was in july 2003. it was repaired by aamco transmissions. the transmission failed again in october 2003. repaired again by aamco. it failed again in april 2004. repaired again by aamco. now the transmission has failed again in september 2004. this is 4 times within 1 year and 2 months. this is utterly ridiculous. it is obvious something is wrong with the mazda 626 automatic transmission being that there are many complaints about this same problem. mazda needs to step up and take responsibility for a major defect in the 626. no wonder they stopped producing the 626 in order to avoid the problem at hand.*ak |
