RX-7 Road-side assistance program?

I recently purchased a 1993 FD with under 29,000 original miles on it. Stock engine bay, nearly perfect interior and original paint.

I found this road-side assistance card with the car manual. Most of the original documentation including the original window sticker are still in the car.



More pictures can be found in an old listing for this car here:

Motorcars Washington | Dealer | Sterling, Virginia

I'm happy to be back on the forums after selling my last FC seven years ago.

Very neat! Wonder what happens if you call that number....

BTW, that car looks AMAZING. Crazy to think that ALL FD'S looked that nice, shiny and new at one point in time!

i remember that road side program, Mazda would have called you a tow truck.

ironically, the Rx7 didn't need it, as its really rare they leave you stranded, the 626 people used it all the time though, the v6's had $1000 distributors that failed constantly (we used to stock 4-6), and the 4 cylinder cars needed a transmission every 30K miles, like clockwork. we had a tech that could almost replace 4 of those transmissions in an 8 hour day, he did 3 a day on a regular basis.

i have a feeling the 626/millenia people called the same number, but they got the number as a number, and not Rx7.

I'd argue that the 626 was Mazda's worst car ever. Id take a GLC over a 626.
