2004 Mazda 3 review from North America

The air conditioner does not cool things down as efficiently as my previous vehicles (Nissan and Toyota). Took it in several times, but each time I was told that it was working correctly.

The driver side window has jammed several times due to the tinting that was put on by the dealership when I purchased it.

Love this car! Aside from the two issues mentioned, it has been a great vehicle. It was my first brand-new car and it has been all that I hoped it would be when I purchased it.

I love the "pick up and go". It drives smoothly and is powerful for its size.

It is sporty and fun, and yet classic and reliable.

It is a little difficult to see out of the vehicle when changing lanes, but I have gotten used to that, and now it I don't notice it unless I've been driving another vehicle.

I would hold on to this vehicle until it died, except the interior is a little small. It was great while I was single and then when my son was an infant. Now that he is growing, there is no leg room in the front if he has leg room and if the passenger has leg room, he is cramped. I can't get his stroller in the trunk and expect to have any room for anything else. There is just not enough space for us. :-(

I am sad to get rid of this car. I love it!
