Good/Bad experience with Mazda(had an accident)LONG

[Street KingFD]

Ok, 1 night awhile back my gf was cooking dinner and asked if I could go wash her car, NO PROB! Who would pass up a chance to drive the MSP. Anyways I get it nice and pretty and stop at the corner store for my usual red Powerade. Off I go about to exit the parking lot with a old ass work truck in front of me with a tow hitch in the back. This ****** REVERSES! and did not see me and ran into the MSP. The bumper had a hole in it that the tow hitch punched. Anyways the guy had insurance thank god and we took it to Mazda service cause they had a paint and body repair shop on hand. Ok couple days go by and it was fixed and looked really good. Good experiance with Ingram Mazda(the one were we bought the MSP from)

Next the ECU flash came out and we went to go get it done at Ingram Mazda. Well they said they needed to drive it first and then if they feel it, they will flash it. He said he hasn't had ANY P5's come in for the flash. I laugh I said that's because it's soley a MSP problem, go look it up. I gave him print outs and he said he would give a call back. Early next morning the call came in and they did feel the hesitation and are going to do the flash. It's done we go pick it up and it rides great now, good turbo responce now. YAY! Good experience.

Ok 1 day my gf walks out to the garage and her windshield is cracked. I do a search here and find it's another one of the quirks MSP's have and again THIS SHOULD be covered under warranty. I felt it was a stress crack because it started from the bottom BELOW the plastic ridge adn plus it was in a garage on it, what rock can hit it there right, WRONG! We took it to Ingram Mazda to get this fixed and they looked at it and I guess there is a tiny ridge on the crack near the bottom so they say no it was a rock, by the way this chip is UNDER the windshield wiper! We are pissed, I talk some s*** and we leave, it's going to cost us 250.00 for the repair. While we were there we put something in the back seat and hear a POP noise. Everytime you push the seat in it makes a pop noise. Wanting to take care of the windshield first adn deal with a warranty item like the seat I know will be under warranty, we decided to **** with it later.We wern't going to stand for that ''it was a rock'' BS, so I had a plan, take it to another Mazda dealership and if that doesn't work start talking to Mazda USA. Bad experience.

We took it to another Mazda dealer(World Car), funny story this Mazda dealer tried screwing us on the MSP, after we agreed on the price they changed it so we didn't buy from them. Anyways we go and they said it IS a stress crack and have them fix the windshield, YAY! While we are there we tell them about the seat popping noise. They say WTF! that is not normal. It's like someone took all the padding out of it. Weird, so they ordered a new back seat and should be in, in about a week. Good experience.

So far that's our life in the MSP. All this built up over about a month. So far everything seems to be going good, just a couple bumps in the road but we got over them.

I'll never understand the mystery of the disappearing padding of the driver side back seat. I was like, It's the clunk but then it wasn't .

I know your in SA right? You have to be. Well Ive only dealt with Ingram once and theyre ok but the Sales dept at World Car and their dumbass Sales mgr Tony Maldonado are a bunch of fuckups. But the service dept there is cool. J.R. is cool man and he listens and doesnt give you attitude like you dont know what your talking about. But im glad they got you hooked up there

 

[Street KingFD]

Yeah, I was told by Mazda workers to never take it to World Car cause they are idiots. We had to though after Ingram declined the warranty on us so we had no choice. I'am just glad to get teh car outta their hands and that they did warranty the windshield.

When I went to different Mazda dealers searching for my MSP, I sat in a yellow MSP on the showroom floor and the back seat made the same noise...lol...it sounded like the car had a heartbeat.

I bought my MSP at world car. 19800 out the door. NO hassle no nothing. I said I had a trade and told them what they were going to give me for it. They did, even a little bit more. The guy was pretty knowledgeable about the Speed's. Even gave me a mazda speed pen. JR had no probs fixing anything up there. Dropped my car off for the flash, and he fixed my door without saying anything. He also ordered me a new sub too. I can't complain about them.

"have tooken"

uh huh.

 

[Ljspeed]

Yeah JR's cool. I just had a bad time with the sales dept at World Car, that I had to make a complaint to Mazda USA. That turned out ok, but World Car's service dept is good so far
