1996 Mazda MILLENIA problems and owner complaints

TRANSMISSION HAS SERIOUS LEAK. LOCAL DEALER REPLACED TRANSMISSION SEALS AND RINGS WHICH DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY NOW RECOMMEND REPLACEMENT FOR OVER $4,000!! THEY CHARGED ME LABOR COSTS WHICH I PAID SO I COULD GET THE CAR OUT. THEY TOOK OVER 5 WEEKS TO FAIL AT THE REPAIR JOB. THEIR BEST GUESS NOW IS THE TRANSMISSION CASE HAS A DEFECTIVE CRACK IN IT. *AK

I HAVE A 1996 MAZDA THAT HAS HAD TWO TRANSMISSIONS IN IT. AFTER RESEARCHING I HAVE FOUND THAT BETWEEN 1994-2002 THESE TRANSMISSIONS HAVE FAILED GREATLY. MY TRANSMISSION LOCKED UP AT A SPEED OF 55MPH AND MY FAMILY AND I ALMOST WENT THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD. SOMETHING MUST BE DONE BY MAZDA TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM AND COMPENSATE THE VICTIMS OF THIS POORLY DESIGNED MACHINE. *TR

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON AND OFF FOR TWO YEARS. I'VE TOOK IT TO 5 DIFFERENT MAZDA SPECIALIST INCLUDING THE DEALER AND EVERYONE OF THEM TELLS ME SOMETHING DIFFERENT... THINGS THAT WERE ALREADY DONE. KNOW ONE CAN SEEM TO PIN POINT WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE CAR. OH BY THE WAY... THE TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN REBUILT. I ALSO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE GEAR SWITCHING FROM THE FIRST TO SECOND AND IT'S NOT THE TRANSMISSION. THIS CAR HAS COST ME A LOT OF MONEY AND IT'S UP THERE WITH THE 626. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER MAZDA AGAIN. *LA

THE FIRST TIME THAT I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH MY 98 MAZDA MILLENNIUM. WAS 1 MONTH AFTER WE BROUGHT IT "MAY 2001". THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT ON THE CAR, THEY PUT AN NEW TRANSMISSION IN. NOW FOR THE SECOND TIME "MARCH 2003" THE TRANSMISSION IS ACTING UP AGAIN, AFTER SHIFTING INTO SECOND GEAR IT WILL NOT GO INTO THIRD GEAR CAUSING THE CAR TO JERK AND REDLINE. SINCE I HAVE BROUGHT MY CAR I HAVE COME INTO CONTACT WITH ALOT OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS OUT OF THIS CAR. IF MAZDA KNOWS THAT THESE CARS ARE HAVING THESE KINDS OF PROBLEM WHY ARE T…

I HAVE A RECURRING TRANSMISSION FAILURE ON MY MAZDA MELLENIA 2000. WHILE DRIVING ,THE CAR WILL DOWN SHIFT RAPIDLY AND CAUSE A QUICK DECREASE IN OPERATING SPEED. WHEN THIS OCCURS THE "HOLD" LIGHT WILL BEGIN TO FLASH AND WILL CONTINUE UNTIL THE CAR IS BROUGHT TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE DEALER SAYS THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THIS PROBLEM. I AM FORCED TO OPERATE A VEHICLE THAT IS NOT SAFE DUE TO THIS RAPID DECELERATION. *JB
