rental car
what kind of rental cars are you guys getting from mazda. my 8 was in the shop twice and the dealership tells me"mazda only pays for like 15$/day or something like that. " Then, I have to get the car from some outside company. All the guy had was a ford escort. mazda really likes to cut corners

I think that Mazda has a contract with Enterprise Rental cars.....When my car was in the shop, that's where they sent me to get my car and I've seen some other posts where others have done the same thing.
At first they gave me a Cavalier, but I complained about how crappy the brakes were and they gave me a Mazda3 until I was rea ended....They then gave me a SUV to drive.

I had mine in for the TSB brake replacement this week. They gave me a Mazda 6. When I have had my wife's MPV serviced they gave me a Mazda 6 as well. Seems like my dealership keeps several of those for customers.

Everytime mine has been in the shop (all minor) I have gotten a courtesy shuttle home from some friendly chap who must be really low on the totem pole. I guess my situations never warranted a rental. The most recent visit they had my car for roughly 25 hours. Not too bad considering I had a pcm reflash done, new brakes, oil change, tire rotation, fixed a seat prob, and fixed a prob with the lights on the radio. It was all done in about a day so I guess I cant complain about no rental...

I got one of the used cars off their lot, a Toyota Camry, accelerated ok, handled like pushing a wet noodle, felt like riding a 2000 lb marshmallow. It felt SO good to get back in the 8.
