Technical issues and repair guidelines

This transmission was also installed on Chevrolet Spectrum and Mazda started using this transmission in 1986 on the 323 model.Then GEO, Suzuki Swift, and Mercury had been using this transmission until 1995. Ford had been manufacturing a budgetary Aspire equipped with the F3A until 1997, when 3-speed automatic transmissions were ousted from the market. It’s a very rare case when the F3A transmission gets in repair services. Spare parts for repair of this transmission are only kits of gaskets and seals and kit of bushings. The open filter with a metal lath gets replaced quite rarely, in most cases it is just washed for reasons of economy.
