Replying to: hiwaystar (Jun 20, 2009 5:38 am) I guess holding the line on mpg while delivering more displacement, HP and torque is pretty commendable. Still trying to come to terms with the new styling... |

On 2010 Mazda3 I Touring -- are the white on black indicators on the interior of the front doors supposed to illuminate at night so that they can be seen? (ie. mirror controls). They do so on our Honda Civic but they don't on the Mazda3 -- and we're trying to figure out if the indicators on the front door just aren't supposed to illuminate, or whether there is a problem. It can be challenging at night without the indicators on door being able to be seen. Thanks.

I thought I was just a few days from buying a new Mazda 3, but now I'm not so sure. I've read that JD Power & Associates rates the Mazda 3 as being much less reliable than some of the other cars I'm considering (e.g., Corolla, Civic). I also just read an article that came out today that Mazda is among the worst in terms of a recent customer satisfaction survey. Yet, this car seems to get great reviews everywhere. Are the reviewers weighing performance and other factors much more heavily than reliability? This is not the way I'd prioritize things as a long-time Toyota guy who can't seem to get a fair price on a Corolla these days. Is there some sort of bias against Mazda in the way they came up with the ratings? Thanks. |

Replying to: movinout77 (Aug 18, 2009 2:36 pm) Car review generally are not about "reliability" at all. As far as I know CR is the only one that considers that in their recomendations, but even there it has nothing to do with how they rank the vehicles it's just that they will not recommend a car unles it gets at least an average rating on their reliability surveys.

Replying to: jeffyscott (Aug 18, 2009 3:39 pm) Just out of curiosity, do you know where this car stands with respect to CR's recommendation?
