1995 Mazda 626 LX review from North America
"A great car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to have the Ford transmission replaced at about 63000 miles. It was replaced free of charge (except for labor).
I finally had the original front struts replace at 361000 miles. I have a bit of play in the control arm of the right front wheel.
General comments?
This car is the most reliable car I have ever had. The engine is excellent and still purrs like a kitten (it does have a lifter that sticks sometimes). I have always had the required maintenance done and I change the oil every 3000 miles. This car has never broken down on me. I never had this type of performance with the prior cars that I owned.
