This car has a lot of recalls and a lot of issues. I bought the 2014 Mazda3 Sport and, so far, all I have are recalls and time wasted. First, I had a recall on the engine oil and container that might contain less than EPA regulations which would cause the car to catch on fire. The second recall was for the gas tank that might have been made one of the faulty tanks that has a hole in it. The third was the wind shield liquid might have been faulty and contain less than EPA regulations. I swear this entire car is like it's made less than something. It has good gas mileage and drives real well, though. But, for this price, I wonder if it was a good deal.

The skyactiv engine is not only reliable but extremely economic with it's gas mileage as well! I am currently at 55,000 miles on the vehicle with no issues and have only had to do minimal maintenance on the vehicle. Even though the Mazda 3 is considered an economy car there is still plenty of space on the inside for passengers to fit comfortably for long trips. The I-Touring model comes equipped with a very useful detection system as well, this will alert you anytime something is in any of your blind spots. I have owned many vehicles now but this one is by far my favorite vehicle that I plan to keep for a very long time.
