To Flieger. Went to my Mazda Dealer this morning to replace the one door handle under the recall program. Remember, it had already been inspected Sat. before and it took less than 15 minutes to replace the handle. Was even offered a free rental for the day. How do you like that for customer service. I said I would rather wait, talked to the service manager and before I knew it, the car was done and ready to leave.

Replying to: aspen8 (Feb 25, 2009 8:48 am)  aspen8 That's great news. I'm glad it went smoothly. I had a problem the second day of driving my car (6i Touring, 4 cyl, convenience pkg): it wouldn't start! I called my dealer and they told me to call their roadside assistance. I contacted them and an hour and a half later i was at the dealership via tow truck. They had to keep the car over night to figure out the problem. They gave me a not-so-nice old Mazda 3 for rental. They got the problem fixed the next day. It turned out to be two problems at once: 1. The remote key "lost its programming" 2. The shifter didn't make contact correctly when in park, so it wouldn't allow the engine to start. Anyway its fixed now, and i'm loving the car. |

Hey Guys, I am planning to buy the new full size sedan this march. The two vehicles that I have finally decided on in this category are Honda Accord 2009 and the new Mazda 6 2009. I have test driven both these cars and found them very similar. however I have a love for Mazda's interiors and exteriors. So I had planned to buy one soon. I have a couple of questions that still are bothering me. 1. Honda Accord is said to have no scheduled Maintenance until 100k miles. (Couldnt find that on their website but I have read blogs where people have mentioned that) 2. I have the new Mazda has transmission problems when its COLD, does anyone know about this? 3. Overall, how has your experience been with the Mazda 6. Would you recommend buying it? Thanks |

Replying to: stewie2 (Mar 04, 2009 5:03 am) I can't imagine that the claim of no scheduled maintenance for the first 100k miles is true. But that should be easy enough to confirm via Google. I've had my 6 for 6 weeks now, and although we only had one day of freezing temperatures here in Texas, I've had no problems with the transmission. I really like the look of the 6 and it's interior (convenience pkg + moonroof/bose pkg). I also feel the engine (4 cyl) is a little spiffier than the Honda's 4 cyl. The Honda felt a bit underpowered to me. Although I loved my 95 Accord, which i sold to make room for the 6, I didn't have a problem switching to Mazda. I really enjoy the car and recommend it. |

Replying to: flieger (Mar 04, 2009 6:37 am) Certainly oil changes, which are scheduled maintenance, must be required prior to 100K mi.

Replying to: jeffyscott (Mar 04, 2009 12:09 pm) Most cars now do not require these maintenance items. |

Replying to: flieger (Mar 04, 2009 6:37 am) I have posted a question already in Buying and Pricing forum but I thought it would be a good idea to ask you guys here. I have decided on M6 - i- Touring (auto) with Moonroof and Bose Package. I am sure about this car and I am looking for some good deals. How much did you guys buy you mazda for? what should be a good price for this car? I would really appreciate any help! Thanks |
