1995 Mazda 626 review from North America
"Mazda 626's Are The Worst Cars EVER!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I hate Mazda's with a passion, I'm a college student, I purchased my car from a well known person, for a reasonable and affordable price. However, within the first year I had it...
* the o/d light was flashing
* my starter went bad
* and my transmission blew out.
I took it to a mechanic, they said it was best to fix it when the transmission was no good (when the car left me stranded) I was driving it for almost a year, then it started making a rattling noise, the o/d light was still flashing, and finally the rpm would go up, but nothing happened.. long story short...
Mazda from 1993-1997 are said to all have a bad transmissions.
General comments?
My car came with a nice CD player, rotating air vents, pretty cozy, leather seats, and spacious.
I have invested so much money on this mazda, it wasnt even worth it, I've spent more than what the car was worth.
The TRANSMISSION ALONE was 1,500.00.
I would not recommend any one buy a mazda, unless the transmission is
A) NEW or
B) RE-BUIlT.
