1994 Mazda Protege 287,000 km review from North America
"Reliable, surely satisfied"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radiator replaced at 283,000 km.
Exhaust replaced twice, - cheap parts.
Fuse replaced -car left in snow storm.
Battery replaced three times over the last 8 yrs.
The gas gage fails at about half a tank.
General comments?
The car is doing fine at 280,000 km.
Squeaks a little, but at 280,000 km I guess you should expect a little noise.
I am generally satisfied with the car will continue to drive it until I can't no more.
