What 1993 Mazda MPV owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Engine makes a terrible knocking noise (tapping noise). I was told that lifters are not getting lubricated. Advised to use thinner oil on next oil change. Thinner oil did not help.
No summary
Cooling system keeps failing, timing belt keeps failing. Vehicle not reliable...would never buy one again.

Engine makes a terrible knocking noise. Sounds like a bad lifter. I was told it was just that engine.
My main concern is the failure of automatic transmission. We want the" recall". We don't want anybody getting hurt. This mini-van has just a liitle bit over 50,000 miles. We couldn't believe all the failures happened in the same time. Thank you for your help.
Loud ticking noise from engine.
Rocker and lifter replace twice, transmission replaced, failed without warning, cylinder head problems which has resulted in the engine burning excessive oil.
Gear shift indicator not lining up, rocker and lifter problem replace two times. Transmission gave out with no indication. Squeaky steering wheel, engine noisy, now cylinder head troblem.
