2001 Mazda 626 review from North America
"It sucks not worth the money at all"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My 2001 Mazda 626 had a rattling noise in the back passenger side tire.. The place I bought my car could never find anything wrong with it.. One day my car would not start had to have it towed into the Mazda dealership and they said it started for them after it sat there for a day in a half... Never did find out why it wouldn't start... When I bought the car when driving it sounded like I was in a truck with big tires.. I don't know how many times I took it to the Mazda dealership and they kept telling me it was tire and road noise.. I took my car to have the brakes done and come to find out my wheel bearing on the passenger side was shot... Had it fixed and now a year later I have to have the wheel bearing replaced again... I hate this car never liked it from the start... No go power at all... Would not buy another one nor tell anyone to buy one either.
