2003 Mazda Protege 5 review from North America
"Nice car, poor service"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brake rotors were warped at 5,000 miles, which the dealer would not replace, instead had them ground down.
General comments?
This is unacceptable because I will have to pay for new rotors in 40,000 miles or so, when I have brake work done.
