| Purchased a 2001 mazda miata new, transmission was hard shifting from day 1 taken in for repairs numerous times, finally resulted in trans. locking in neutral and car would not move resulting in a very serious situation. no accident occurred during this period and mazda would not repair car because it was out of warranty at this time. car was fixing by independent trans. shop and paid for by me. *tr | |||
