Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I own a mazda tribute 2004, it was taken to the mazda servicing shop for various repairs ranging from a leak of water of rain through the front windshield, the transmission of the sub would not engage in reverse, the condensation of the air conditioning leaks on top of the catalytic converter which is rusted, along with various other complaints. the suv currently has a mileage of 8695 miles and is experiencing transmission problems, it does not shift into the 40-55 mph shift and exceeds the #3 rpm's. the vehicle was taken once again to the mazda dealer and i was informed that the suv is no longer under guarantee because my vehicle is over 4 years old and the warranty has expired. how is it possible for a suv with only 8695 miles which is driven only locally can be experiencing transmission problems. and know it is so convenient for the dealer and the central office in puerto rico to state that my warranty has expired and that this is not a case of manufacturer's defect or recall. *jb
