626

  • 11,678 miles
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.
