2016 Mazda CX-3

"The first CX-3 that we bought was in October of 2015. It was involved in an accident that did not require the airbags to deploy and we were told by the autobody we bought it to it would require about $10,000 worth of repairs but that was just a rough estimate but should not be more that that. This would require a $500 deduction from us and the car would be fixed. A few days later we were told that the car could not be fixed because Mazda had not entered details for repairing the new model to the 3 databases used to repair cars. The autobody shop had no idea what parts were needed nor any idea how to make the repairs. A few days after this the insurance company said they would have to total the car, even though the damage was nowhere near the value of the car. The car had cost $32,000. Mazda and the dealership were of no help. After a month of a leased car, the insurance company took that away and left us with no car. We had to rent a car on our own. We ended up with a several thousand dollar loss on the car.In spite of this and against my wishes, my daughter purchased a replacement CX-3 which is the one you are writing about. So far it has been good but yesterday she ws hit in a parking lot with minor damage. It will be interesting to see how that works out.The rating of 1 star is only because that is the least available.It will be interestin also to see what you do with this review.Peter Egan"

"Car is great on fuel and easy to drive. Veg lacks space for groceries etc.. The navigation system should not stay up all the time and is hard to see at night"
