Description of the problem | I have a 98 626 mazda lx with 54k miles. My transmission is going out on me. I took the car to a mazda specialist. They told me it may cost a round $2800. This is not the first case of transmission failure on mazda. I heard and read that there are thousands of transmission problems with mazda.
