2012 Mazda Mazda3 consumer reviews

My car was in excellent condition, the milage was low, the engine purred like a kitten and I loved it. It will be a very reliable car.

No problems, owned for 4-5 years ran 80k miles up to 136k. No work what so every except brakes, pads, fluids and oil. Handles very well, quite sporty for 2.5l 4cyl car. Gas mileage is good, but a little lower with the 2.5l engine.

We loved it so much we bought another one. Very fuel efficient car. Good car to commute to and from work. It is a good value.

This is a great small car! Excellent gas mileage. Very comfortable and has all the bells and whistles. Runs smoothly without any tranny issues. We've always been a Honda or Subaru family, but with this little performer we may easily become a Mazda family.

This car is reliable, fun to drive and easy to maintain. The only reason why I’m selling it is because we are expecting and we need a bigger vehicle.

This car has been the most reliable and good quality vehicle I have every owned. I have owned for 6-1/2 years, it has 81K miles on it and I have not had any mechanical problems/repairs. The car is as reliable now as it was when I first bought it. Interior quality is good and is holding up well over the years also. This car has supreme handling, very sharp turning radius and strong performance taking sharp turns at steady speed. Fuel efficiency: 26 city / 35 highway. I stay on top of the maintenance, change the oil and filter every 6,000 miles using full synthetic. Replaced spark plugs near 70K miles, serpentine and A/C belt at 75K, replaced front brake pads at 75K. Also have routinely flushed A/T fluid and filter every 25K to 30K miles. Replaced battery at around 50K miles. The only cons I would say is the ride is a bit rough and has lackluster acceleration. Also this car wears through tires quickly despite rotating tires every 6K miles.

I have only owned the vehicle for a week, but I’m very pleased. The drive is smooth and the handling is flawless. The model is the igrand touring...so, it’s classy. Bose sound system, moon roof, auto everything, navigation, heated leather seats and more. Everyone I’ve talked who’s owned a Mazda has said they loved theirs. I’m hoping I’ll be able to say the same in years to come.

My car radio doesn’t even work . Gas don’t last . Car payment to darn high . They are rude at the place when I call . Etc

Great fuel economy. Just enough room for my commute to and from work. I’m sure my kids will want it as soon as I buy my next car.

I have got my money's worth literally 2 times over ...I started with protege5 hatchback and this is my second Mazda3 the previous ones push 350,000 plus easily ....Tks Mazda for not disappoint me....z u soom soom....
