The Mazda 626 transmission is not known for its reliability. It fact, there have been numerous complaints about problems encountered with the Mazda 626 transmission. A common problem on the vehicle is the failure of the automatic transmission. When this fails, this may cause the overdrive light to flash. Other problems include slipping and vibration. Not understanding why there are no recalls on this product being that this has been going on for years why is Mazda not liable for this issue.......
