Used Mazda Mazda6 for Sale in Seattle, WA

I have 2 concerns that make me rate this vehicle lower than I'd ideally like to. The first is the car's inability to handle inclement weather, such as snow. (The fact that the dealership wasn't that forthright with me initially about that is also a deterrent.) The car does not have enough clearance room to handle chains, so driving it during the winter is a problem. Given that I regularly want to use the car for skiing, or on ski trips only magnifies the problem. I can use it, but only when the state department of transportation is on top of keeping the mountain passes clear. The second issue is a design flaw, in my opinion. On other vehicles I own, changing a burned out light is relatively easy. I can do this on my wife's Ford Windstar in a matter of minutes. On the 6, the front headlights can't be changed without some serious work. As a matter of fact, the owner's manual tells you to bring it in to be done. This is because it needs to be jacked up and done from underneath somehow. Very inconvenient.

Cloth seats transfer dye too easily.
