Purchased a black 2001 Mazda 626 LX on August 13. Within one week, alarm would randomly go off and not stop. We took car back to Harris Auto Group. They sent the car to Bordentown Auto. Car sat over in their parking lot for 4 days. We kept calling asking if it was fixed. After all we are now making payments on this car and do not have access to drive it now for 4 days. Next repair came two weeks later, when we started hearing a squealing noise. We brought the car back to Harris for repair. Their mechanic said it was alternator belt and replaced it same day. Two weeks later, car started making noises and going backwards while in drive. Took car back to Harris Auto Group, they sent us to A-1 Economy Transmissions for a transmission repair. The car stayed at A-1 from Monday – Friday 10/1- 10/5 for repairs, but would be under warranty. We would only have to make $100 deductible payment. Mind you we are still supposed to continue to make our regular car payments during all of these repairs. We pick up car on Friday October 5. We paid $187.50, our deductible plus sales tax. On Saturday, October 6, we decided to ride to Burlington from Bordentown to get some Chinese food. Well we never made it back home. The car’s alternator belt broke and the car overheated and shut off. Well we call Harris Auto Group and ask about a tow and repairs. We were told sorry, “I can’t authorize a tow”. What the hell? Well, now we have to spend $75 for a tow back to Bordentown. On Monday, October 8 I paid $130 for replacement belts only for the mechanic to tell me the water pump is about to go. WTH!!! What more can go wrong with this stupid car!!!
