| Ever since i got my car it seems all we've had to do is relplace parts. we have had transmission problems from the start. until recently when our car was failing to go and getting stuck evey time we came to a stop light, i got the idea that it wasn't how i was handiling it, that their was a manu. problem. i saw many complaints about this make on the transmission, and i don't think i should pay anymore to get it replaced. everytime i try to put on the gas it fails to accelerate. now it makes a clicking noise everytime i press the gas. | |||

| My car was wanting to stall at stop lights. i broght it to my mechanic, he ordered a part for the vehicle (i believe it was an intake valve) and asked me to come back in a couple days. when i broght the vehicle back, he called to tell me the intake valve was the least of my problems. i had an electrical fire under the hood, which had melted the fuse box! luckily i was not driving the vehicle at the time of fire. my mechanic stated the cause of this electrical fire to be the cooling fan. i had the cooling fan, wiring, wiring harness, intake valve and a water pump replaced. when i got the car out of the shop, a week later the hold button started to flash on and off. this was determined to be a swith, which a had replaced. approx. 2 weeks later the transmission started slipping, i brought the car to aamco and there we found metal in the pan. i told him i would bring the car back in a few days for repairs, a quarter mile from aamco the car just would not move. the transmission had ceased to work. i had the car in to mazda dealer 7/98 for transmission flush. | |||

| Transmission hold button locks transmission in gear and requires up-shifting from gear at which hold is engaged. with transmission in d and having automatically upshifted into overdrive, hold light will flash and transmission will downshift, causing a sudden/radical slowdown. | |||
