2002 Mazda MPV LX review from North America
"Good car the first three years, now a lemon"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At 42,000 miles, I had to replace 3 cylinder coils.
At 48,120 miles my transmission needs to be replaced.
At 48,120 miles an oxygen sensor needs to be replaced.
At 48,120 miles I have an oil gasket that needs to be replaced.
General comments?
My first Mazda was the R-100. I have owned an RX-3, 323 and now the MPV. I never had a problem until the MPV. The problems I am experiencing with this MPV at such a low amount of mileage is very disheartening. I am hoping that MazdaUSA will repair the transmission at no or little cost to me.
