2001 Mazda MPV LX review from North America
"Steep Depreciation , Should have bought a Honda"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brakes grind, even though they appear OK.
Pedal sticks hard sometimes.
Low performance, have to turn off the air to merge, if fully loaded.
Transmission seems to shift at odd times, or stays in shifted down on acceleration.
General comments?
Resale value not good.
Depreciation high.
Dealer charged for lots of extras, Etched windows, extended service contract, gap coverage etc.
