1994 Mazda 626 LX review from North America
"Horrible not worth the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I bought the car from a dealer at 63000 miles everything was fine. last month at 75000 miles my transmission went out. The problem started by the o/d light flashing on and off. It would not turn off and the next day it started slipping bad. It cost me about 2,000 thousand dollars to get it fixed. I was very upset because it only had 75000 miles on it. This was my first car I bought when I was 17 and my biggest mistake was buying this car and I will never purchase another Masda in my life.
General comments?
Around 70,000 miles my head lights had problems. They would not turn on. Apparently it was a known problem with this car and I am upset there wasn't a recall on my car and all the problems I got from my 1994 Masda 626.
