Are there safety recalls on the 1985 Mazda 626?

NHTSA lists no safety-recall campaigns for the 1985 Mazda 626 model year. That covers the model year, not this individual car: to see whether a specific vehicle still needs a recall repair, check its VIN on NHTSA.gov or ask a franchised dealer. Recall repairs are free.

What fuel economy does the 1985 Mazda 626 get?

The 1985 Mazda 626 has U.S. EPA estimates of 23–33 mpg combined, depending on engine and trim (3 versions).
