1993 Mazda Navajo LX (4X2) review from North America
"Maintain a vehicle, and it'll last like luggage!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Surprisingly only a few minor things:
Shock for the rear lift-gate glass.
Minor rattle under the dash.
Has Explorer/Navajo shake at 65.
General comments?
I love it! My Navajo is a 2WD, with the 3.37 LS axle. So in comparison to most of the SUV's of the same vintage this one really moves out!
That Ford 4.0L, just keeps on chugging, both down the road, and gallons of gas.
I installed a remote starter/alarm, and with nearly 146k on the clock it has never left me stranded, and always fires up in the morning with the touch of a button.
