Well everyone, it seems that this may be the last week with my Protege 5, and it is going to be spent in the shop. On the highway this evening on my way home, not even 10 minutes after being on the highway the engine started bucking and the RPM's were jumping all over the place, all power dropped off, and damn near seized right there on the highway.
The dealership cant seem to tell me whats wrong with it, just like they couldnt tell me what was wrong with it the other four time this happened, yet supposedly "fixed" it. So at this point I think after a year of ownership and 21360 miles it's time to say good bye.
If anyone has a suggestion on a NON-MAZDA vehicle to look into a possible trade for I would appreciate the suggestions. Thank you.
