2002 Mazda Protege 5 review from North America
"The most fun car ever!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only problem I had with the car was back in 2006, and at about 90,000 miles, the radiator cracked. It's a plastic radiator... not much to fix it. Other than regular up keep, I have had no other problems.
General comments?
I love my car!!! It is so fun to drive! I just had someone ask my the other day if I was driving the new Toyota Matrix! My car is 6 years old and it still looks brand new!!
