| I've had numerous problems with this car since 03/2001. i purchased it new from marlin mazda. this car has stalled several times while driving. the sunroof and corner roof between the front windshield and driver door leaked water when it would rain. january 2003 my car ran hot, the air conditioning was not blowing.they said they replaced the head on my engine and that some hose was not connected, this is why my air wasn't blowing? my car stalled on me 08/27/03. no warning lights came on. the car wasn't even hot. towed to marlin mazda.i paid for new battery. i asked them to chaeck under hood to be sure no other problems, they told me at least $500 to check engine thoroughly? week later stall again. this time towed to ocean mazda,knocking noise under hood, they said it is the engine and oil pump. they tried to look up factory warranty, they're not repairing it because marlin mazda voided my warranty(marlin said sludge in engine/ code w8.) that was a lie! i have been getting scheduled maintenance on my car. ocean mazda checked engine no sludge but they can't do repair work without warranty. they tried to call district manager because code w8 does not exist!!! also, i have an extended warranty which they seem to have no record of? i have spoken to mazda american credit to get copies of loan papers that shows purchase of extended warranty. i guess the next step is a law suit. after all these headaches i don't even want this car anymore. i am already paying a high car note for extra coverage and they don't even have the descency to repair my car. | |||

| The electric system seems to be defective, because always something related to it is out of work. frequently it is reflected in the air conditioning. for instance, the last time the air condition (a/c) was repaired, that repairman left the claxon and the rear defrost out of work. the a/c has been repaired too many times that it does not fit with a new vehicle. nowadays it is out of work again. i fear that next time is the lights to be off when just driving. in incident date, next data required in this scheme, i am putting the last repair in the dealer. *la | |||

| My 2001 mazda 626 has had two transmissions installed and now installing the third one @104000 miles first time the overdrive light flashed and would not shift into the proper gear at 53000 miles we had to fight with mazda north america for several weeks to take care of it. also wheeler mazda in yuba city did not help or care witch the car was purchased at new. i have had the car serviced at the dealer for all recommended service. now the second one just went out @ 104000 miles and the mazda rep for mazda north america will not help at all. the cost to repair this one is2,900 dollars. i have 3 children and one on the way. this is not what i expect from a new car that has been well taken care of. the axles went out @ 70000 miles the stereo went out 2 times in the first month. the 2nd transmission started squeaking for about 10 minutes then the transmission just quit. thanks. *jb | |||
