This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The vehicle is stalling during acceleration and after. Sometimes it's stops and clear itself up and then throws itself into overdrive (O/D off lights starts flashing) all while driving it in the street(city and interstate). When you let the car sit and not run it will not flash but after driving amd not getting any speed it does it again.
We recently bought or Mazda 626 from a dealer we were told that we were getting a quality car. We were fooled. With in the first week we had to buy part after part.change the trans fluid, change the distributor, spark plug wires, spark plugs, router motor, ignition coil, clean fuel injectors, replace fuel filter, still need to get a trans cooler as soon as I can. It took us a few years to save for a car. We trusted a dealer and got screwed! we have no money left and a car we can only use on a limited basis. We thought after loosing our income then our former car to repossession with only $50 left on it, then our home gets foreclosed on, and the loss of a father, and sister in a two year time frame was enough. Nope we buy a car with so many defects it crazy, I can believe these cars a even aloud to be sold to anyone. Face it they are death traps and anyone who owns one should get them replaced at manufacture cost.
My car idles back and forth like someone is pressing the gas and letting off. I had it put on a computer at advanced automobile and I got a throtle position sensor, and had it put on. My car still did the same exact thing. Had it put back on the computer, and had a mass flow sensor put on it. My car still did the same thing.took car to dealer, put idle air control valve and replaced wiring to this sensor. I even put an emc from a salvage yard in my car. Still my car did the same thing. Were there any other Mazda doing the same thing? I' spent alot of money to try and fix my car.
