#74 of 83 Rental from Enterprise by buckeye39 Sep 20, 2005 (9:09 am)
I turned our 5 in yesterday afternoon (and left the fire extinguisher in the back!). I was directed to an Enterprise next door to the dealer. I had to pick between a Kia and Chevy Cobalt, as these were the only two cars available at the time (very small shop). I was in a hurry and picked the Cobalt. It was very small, dirty, and smelled like a urinal cake! I guess there are worse smells, but I didn't want to be the one to take the Cobalt home to my wife and tell her "this will be your car for the next 30 days." I stopped at another Enterprise on the way home and was able to trade the Cobalt for a 2005 Toyota Camry. The Camry's bigger, cleaner, and smells a little better (there is a strange, yet unidentifiable odor in this car too).   I hope Mazda identifies the problem, comes up with a solution, and repairs our 5 soon!

I hope Mazda identifies the problem, comes up with a solution, and repairs our 5 soon!   The good news is Mazda knows the exact problem...It's testing the fix and manufacturing the parts that will take a bit. Mazda dealers want the issue fixed as fast as you do...We still have to pay the expenses related to carrying the unsold MZ5 inventory.
#76 of 83 Georgia Lemon Laws by hkeogh Sep 20, 2005 (10:49 am)
http://www.yourlemonlawrights.com/state_laws/georgia.htm   Essentially, the dealership has 30 days to repair your vehicle and if not the dealership must provide you with a vehicle or equal or greater value or a refund (the option is the consumers unless it is a lease, in which case it is the dealership's).   I have a strong suspician that this one will exceed 30 days folks.   As for greedy salesmen from the prior posting, I am not posting all the details primarily beceause I am negotiating a satisfactory response from Mazda USA.

Replying to: hkeogh (Sep 20, 2005 10:49 am) I have a strong suspician that this one will exceed 30 days folks.   I hope that you're wrong...we'll just have to wait and see.   I'm still optimistic about it: MazdaUSA has most likely overestimated the time frame, so that we'll all be happy when we get our cars back early. I'm hoping for 2-3 weeks. No use talking about lemon laws now when it's only been a few days.
#78 of 83 Door latch recall by dcdingo Dec 31, 2006 (8:10 am)
I've gotten two notices of the sliding door latch recall in the past two weeks. The second was on an orange card berating me for not responding to the previous week's notice. I hope Canadian owners, who first noticed the problem in freezing conditions, are getting as much attention.
#79 of 83 Warranty expire date on the ones bought in 2005 by athenasius Nov 25, 2008 (10:18 pm)
Does anyone know when the warranty date expires on the ones that were recalled. I remember they said it was reset to December but can not remember if it will expire on Dec 1 or the last day in Dec.

Replying to: athenasius (Nov 25, 2008 10:18 pm) My letter says: It has been reset as starting Dec 1, 2005 ending Dec 1, 2009. 4yrs or 50K miles Replies to this message: athenasius (Nov 28, 2008 1:39 pm) coolmazda5 (Nov 28, 2008 5:41 pm)

Replying to: athenasius (Nov 28, 2008 1:39 pm) Now that you mention it, in the US the 2006 Mazda5 was the first and last model that came with a 4yr warranty. The 2007s and beyond come a 3yr warranty.
