My car has less than 50000 miles and had to replace turbo

My car has less than 50000 miles and had to replace turbo and not covered by Mazda but they will cover a air-conditioner compressor but not the turbo??? And you knew the motor and turbo were not compatible. Not very good customer relation situation.

Low cost of ownership

Owned for 6 years. Almost no maintenance required. Just oil changes, new brakes and tires at usual intervals. Great car. Runs well. Performs okay in snow. Better with snow or all season tires. 4 cylinder engine is fine for city use but not great when more power is needed for accelerating and highway passing. Design is good but becoming dated. Interior is good but some nice features are only found on the highest trim level, grand touring.

Exciting new ride

This car meets all of my needs! It's fun to drive and it is a comfortable ride. A great every day driver because it also gets decent gas mileage. Not to mention, the speakers sound pretty decent.

Fun Car

Fun car to drive with excellent fuel economy. Minimal maintenance. Oil changes, rotate tires and a battery. Have 87000 miles on it and still runs great.

Most reliable car I have ever own. Great features

This car met all of my needs. It has enough leg room front and back and to be a 4 cylinder it drove like a 6 cylinder. It has turbo engines and a sunroof that I love. I brought it in 2013 with only 12,000 miles and had minimum issues. My best car so far.

One of the best cars I’ve ever owned.

Great car. Good storage. NO mechanical problems. Dependable. 130,xxx miles and still going strong. Would buy again. Original brakes are still like brand new. I maintained it very well.

Great car for the money.

This is a great car, very reliable and handles like a sports car. I even took this little SUV over a Colorado mountain pass that was for 4WD vehicles, and it was a beast ! Handles like a dream on the twisting, turning mountain roads of Colorado.
