Emergency Break doesn't engage sometimes and have to repeat pressing lever.
Shifting into 1st and Reverse gear requires shifting into 2nd or 3rd first;this has been a problem almost since new.
At 123,500 miles have not yet replaced clutch!
Engine feels strong even after all these years.
It's an excellent vehicle in every way!
I do all my maintenance.
My B3000 has only 44,500 miles on it and I'm having clutch problems. They started when the temps went down to sub-zero. Now it's locked in gear when running and I can't shift gears. Fixing will require removing the tranny in order to get the parts that need replacing. At least a $500 ++ job.
I have owned my mazda truck for the past 2 years. I can say that I am very Pleased with my purchase. it was a 2001 b3000 auto. it has plenty of power and good gas mileage to go with it. I haven't had the first problem with my truck I change the oil every 5k as stated in my book. it had like 60k when I bought it. now it is at 98k. let me tell you one thing, I have given this truck hell the past 2 years. it has never let me down. it has been in the ditch once, crossed a lake with water coming in the cab with me, and pulling a buggy of fertilizer from the local coop the tranny started smoking by the time I made it home. it cooled off and it was OK and has been since. I love my truck and would most for sure buy another one. dave.
