1993 Mazda 626 DX review from North America
"Don't bye a Mazda with no warranty"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The rubbers fell off the doors.
I put 4 alternators on it in 2 years.
I replaced the timing post twice, costing $800.each.
I put 2 c.v. joints in it.
The wheel bearings have to be replaced.
General comments?
The point that I want to make is that this car is very expensive to maintain.
Where I live the parts are very hard to get and cost a nice bit of money to get.
