Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: (1) jerking motion of vehicle when driving. mazda dealership informed me that was normal for mazda transmissions. (2) transmission failure. (3) rebuilt transmission $1600.00. 1 year later, it failed again, due to over heating. needs to be rebuilt again. i had no knowledge that there was a tsb on the transmission for this vehicle requiring a cooling unit to avoid overheating. now, i have to pay for more repairs to the transmission, with no end in sight. this is not fair. had i known about these problems, i would never have purchased the vehicle (brand new) in the first place. this is just not fair. *jb
