2007 Mazda 3 review from North America
"Very nice car, but I would not buy it again"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air Conditioner performs very poorly
Alignment seems to be off.
General comments?
LOVE the color - it's the most beautiful blue.
Hate the automatic transmission, but that's just because I wanted a Standard and dealer could not find one for me.
I'm disappointed with the gas mileage, it only gets 20 mpg driving around town.
Air Conditioner is completely insufficient for hot Oklahoma summers.
Visibility to the side is poor, makes it very difficult when changing lanes.
Alignment has been off since appr. 2000 miles, will get it looked at at next service. Was hoping that I wouldn't have to get anything fixed yet at such low mileage.
