1994 Mazda Navajo LX 4X4 review from North America
"A capable off- road vehicle, with excellent street handling!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At 105,000 miles the transmission started to make sporadic shifting errors, but it still runs very well. The errors occur very rarely though.
General comments?
The vehicle is surprisingly agile. It is capable of very quick maneuvers without the threat of rolling over, like in some other light duty trucks.
The steering is amazing well designed for this type of car. The turning radius is excellent.
The Navajo's leather/ vinyl interior is very pleasing, and is comfortable as well. The seats are very easy to clean and maintain, as for the rest of the interior.
There is a fair amount of space in the engine compartment, which makes home servicing very easy. A person can reach nearly all engine components without much trouble.
Sadly the vehicle lacks acceleration, although it is surprisingly fast once it gets moving.
I love my Navajo, I do not think I will ever sell it. It is a very well built, sturdy, rugged, comfortable, and practical machine!
