Mazda 626 Gearbox & Transmission Problems
Auto transmission puzzles
IT IS clearly unacceptable for an auto to fail at such low mileage, and I would be pressing Mazda for at least part of the cost of replacement. Servicing is important on an auto to keep the oil fresh because the most common reason for an auto to fail is overheating. But as you don't tow and aren't a lead foot, it is unlikely that your driving has caused the problem.
