Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I am having problems with my automatic transmission in my mazda 626 lx 1996 model. i bought this used car on jan 2006 and it started to give problems by showing o/d lights off. then check sign popped up and i fixed that one. again popped up and found torque converter failure. i took it to transmission shop and they quoted $1700 to change the transmission. in online, i read many complaints about transmission and it advised to use this site to file a complaint against mazda company. many people had the same problem like me and this raises safety aspect of this vehicle, which is a manufacturing defect. though i haven't invested any money now to change transmission but i am seeking whether mazda company is providing any alternative change or offer to their customer related to transmission. *tr
