Brake Disc problems of the 1999 Mazda 626

Two problems related to brake disc have been reported for the 1999 Mazda 626. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Brake Disc problem

Failure Date: 12/01/2001

I bought the car with 5000 miles. Just over a year of owning it I had to put new brakes on the car. In April of 2002 it needed a brake job again. For a car that is less than 3 years old it is having to many problems with the brakes. Now the brakes think they are on at all times and the car vibrates. I have went to three mechanics and they can't find what is causing this problem. I feel that they sold me a car that was in an accident or something was really wrong when they sold it to me.

2 Brake Disc problem

The front brakes on the above mentioned vehicle wear out every 10,000 miles or so. There is currently 47,000 on the vehicle, and I have changed the brakes 7 times!!! I notified Mazda USA, and nothing was ever done. I took it back to the dealership, and was told several times by service manager that this was "normal wear" and that I might want to change my driving habits, which. , by the way, are not bad.
