This being the "Problems" board, you're going to find what? Problems! If you look at the Problems board for the Accord, Civic, Camry, Corolla, you name it, there will be plenty of problems griped about. In particular, the Accord had a lot of squeaks and rattles after its 2003 redesign, and there was a some talk about starting problems with the V6 (caused by the fuel-pressure regulator). If you base your purchasing decisions on the Problems board for any car, you won't buy any car. |

good post...nobody builds a perfect car. Even the so called best manufacturers have service departments attached to their showrooms for a reason....and its not to do $14.95 oil changes. The key is how well do they handle problems that pop-up. Mazda does a pretty good job of fixing problems. Some car companies create the illusion that their cars don't break and if they do it's the owners fault. haha |

I used to follow the Saab 9-3 board, when the new model came out in '03.. but, eventually, it just became too depressing... If that didn't scare you off...shewwww The Mazda 3 looks relatively good compared to most. regards, kyfdx |

But then there would be a Horse Owners: Problems & Solutions board where people would be complaining about their horses crapping all over the place.

Replying to: mazda6s (Jun 29, 2004 1:44 pm) I don't mind a few problems (especially in a car's first year) as long as the manufacturer seems prepared to fix them. Some people on this board seem to feel that this is not the case with Mazda. Your thoughts?

Replying to: janamax (Jun 29, 2004 6:16 pm) Basically, any time they need a part, they have to get it from Japan, so it takes a bit. No one's stocking them here yet, probably because there's very little stock to be had. But you DO get a free loaner car (you're entitled to one under the Mazda warranty) so they won't leave you stranded. That's guaranteed. Those two cars at the top of your list...as I Toyota and Honda do NOT provide a loaner car as part of the warranty. I understand some dealers choose to provide something, but it's NOT always guaranteed with them. With Mazda, it's written in the warranty, and corporate policy. |
