What was the WORST car you owned.

[S197CS]

We Leased our 2017 !Mazda CX3 AWD for 5 years as the Plan was for our oldest son to buy it for the $8,400 plus tax residual.

Car will only have 70,000 kilometers and it will replace his 08 Focus.

But in last year I replaced Front and Rear Brakes, battery and all season tires.

On Mazda's, brakes are a common occurrence. Speaking from experience here as well.

Alot of negative press on the Pinto bomb! It was my first car and actually I never had any issues with it. It was the first car that started me customizing because it was such a Plain Jane! Pic seems like eons ago...me and my girlfriend (later became my wife).

My Youngest Son bought a new CX5 Limited Sport in 2016.

100,000 kilometers on Vehicle He just replaced the brakes front and rear for the 4th time with Aftermarket Parts at an Independent Garage.

The last set from the Mazda Dealer were Rusted Out and Shot after only a year and he’s not hard on brakes.

When I replaced brakes on my CX3 I went with aftermarket parts.

Mazda’s Reputation for shoddy Brakes was a major factor in my going with Subaru for next vehicle.

Yup, we have a 2014 with +/- 83k kms and can confirm it's nothing but good ownership. Although I've had to do a front wheel bearing to get the sticker this year... oh well nothing's perfect!
