When is a warning not a warning?

published

March 2018 Model SP25 Astina randomly displays warnings lights for 1 - 30 minutes while driving. 3 visits for repairs and they couldn't locate any fault (and had never heard of the issue) the first two times. Luckily I have taken pictures each time. Third time they found the problem and replaced the camera. Two days after the 'fix' the same issue happens. They still do not know what is wrong. Now that I am trying to enforced my rights under consumer protection I have been hand balled to Mazda Australia.

Love driving this car!

published

Bought this Mazda Touring brand new! Great to drive and exceptional fuel economy. We are both retired so only around the area driving so far and so far so good. Love the gadgets inside and the rear reversing camera took a while to get use to but now it's all second nature. Not so sure about easily fitting 5 people, only if they are small or very thin. 4 nice and comfy. Great Boot size. The one problem that I have found from going down from an Xtrail to a small sedan is that I can't see the front and adjusting to turn and to stop. I have scratched to right and left bottom guard a few times.

Great Car But mazda Engineers need to drive one on sydney roads

published

For the price of the car it is excellant.All of the features of a bmw or merc.The only downside to the car is still ecsessive tyre noise even on smoother roads.Not a deal breaker but for a major automotive company not as good as it should be considering it is trying to get a bigger market share.I dont expect a dead silent car, but a slight droning on smooth roads is not acceptable.Is it the Tyres?

Love it

published

I owned a Mazda back in the 80's . Loved it. Now with the opportunity to buy another new car I knew exactly what I wanted. Mazda 3 MAXX. It is like coming home. Perfect in every way. My only wish is that Mazda would introduce capped servicing and services were not schedule every 10K. Surely with today's technology it should be between 15-20k.

Good choice

published

I have driven this car now for 12 months and have had it serviced once in this time I have been able to become very confident of the reliably and the servicing that Penfold Motors Burwood have shown. I have owned many cars in my 54 years of driving and had quite a few ordinary ones and must say this experience so far has been one of the best. I would recommend Burwood Mazda to my friends and family any time.

A good small car for drivers.

published

If you're after a smallish car with great handling, a punchy non-turbo engine, a semi-luxury interior, good equipment levels, great looks and good customer service from the dealer, this is pretty much your best bet. Not the best car for back seat passengers and the boot is not the biggest in its class.

Great car to drive

published

This car is a fantastic car to drive! I love getting behind the wheel and I make any excuse to. The car is very smooth to drive, quick to go from naught to whatever speed limit it is. The seats are very comfortable as well. I love the feel of the wheel. Its great to be able to just jump into the car without pulling the keys out. The running costs are great, at $1.29 for 91 unleaded with 3 bars left in the tank, only cost just under $50 to go full tank! The fuel lasts a lot longer than the precious car we owned. The car is an extremely reliable car basically a dream to drive. Highly recommend buying this car.

Fast, little zippy car!

published

We purchased a brand new Mazda last year and it's been my favourite car by far. It's zippy, quick and very nice to drive. Downfall would be the seats are a little narrower than our Toyota. Boot is small too. Couldn't get the Leather option in the Maxx which was disappointing. Otherwise, I love it!

Great bang for your buck

published

Performance wise, the handling feels tight, very responsive - some might feel like the steering doesn't feel nice to drive in comparison to luxury cars but you get what you pay for. Not too noisy and the 2.5L is definitely recommended if you travel a bit more than the average person due to it being easier to overtake on highways, etc

Interior is average but for the price it does feel like you get a bit more for what you pay for. It's comfortable for 4 average sized people and the fuel economy is good for a 2.5L engine.

Great family CAR

published

Nice Family Car for small and medium sized families. Fulfills basic city needs. Decent interiors and comfortable seating. The touch screen hangs at time and is not to standards of other parts. Car's performance and fuel consumption are decent. Though on hilly terrains performance is not that great, Speaker and music systems are good

Mazda 3 Maxx Sedan Zoom Zoom

published

Mazda Car is the best car on the market. You can get all the latest smart features, new technologies and best performance in this car which normally you can find only in the very expensive car models from BMW, AUDI etc.
Very smooth driving, no noise, good performance and very stylish interior & exterior also. Yearly once servicing required.

An awesome car

published

The Mazda 3 SP25 GT has many refined features from previous models, the car has a powerful engine, about a 130 kilowatt powered engine. The Bose speakers are a sensation for the music fanatics and the aircon is amazing, climate control with a strong gust of cool air. Heated seats are great use for winter, other features include istop, built in voice control, navigation and analytics from the car itself.

Amazing car

published

Wow. The Mazda 3 Maxx is an excellent all round performance and value. Mainly the car is the cheapest on the market, and the quality in my opinion tops everything else. The sleek 'Kodi' looks suit the cars sporty style and handling. No excessive road noise. The running costs are minimal and the istop engine reduces full consumption
