My Mazda has a reset next to the gear shift. Check to see if yours has one it is just a little slider doesnt even look like a switch but it will slide forward or back. Try that next time it wont start. I would definitely have it checked out by a certified mechanic. I would hate to have my wife and stranded somewhere cause it usually happens at the worst of times.

Thanks for your response, however,
the only switch I have is on the shift lever. The car starts fine if the Hold light does not come on and the button on the shift lever turns the Hold on and off. However wen I turn the ignition on and the Hold light is blinking there is nothing I can due except turn the ignition key off and on x times and hope the Hold light goes off, once it does everything works. I called the Mazda dealer and was told the Transmission needs to be overhauled, which I don't believe.

Well it might not be a matter of 'calling'...I would go get it checked out by a Mazda dealer. It sounds like there is either an internal problem in the transmission OR a wiring harness issue with the car. Either way, get it to a dealer.
