Mazda5 2009 Factory Security Alarm Going Off For No Reason

Re: Mazda5 2009 Factory Security Alarm Going Off For No Reason [alohadave]

Written by: baggers on Oct 02, 2009 03:14 PM

I've had a very similar thing. We bought our 2005 Mazda 5 from a Mazda dealer a year ago, and ever since the alarm has gone of randomly. Its been in with the dealer for the third time today and once again they have found nothing. It doesn't seem to go off in any kind of predictable pattern and it can be weeks between occurences. All the dealer can suggest is I leave the car ... Read More...

Mazda5 Prices Paid and Buying Experience

Re: An Update - I Purchased the 2009 Mazda5, Sport Trim with AT [newcarbuyer18]

Yes, you're probably right that the dealer split the $1,750 engagement cash from Mazda with my wife and me. So, if you take the perspective that the invoice price, as a result, should be adjusted downward we paid over invoice as you indicated. In regards to the key, I informed Mazda about it. Here's their reply: Hello Ken, Thanks for contacting Mazda. I regretted ... Read More...

While you were anywhere from $700 to $1000 below invoice on the price of the car itself, you have to remember that the dealer actually had $1,750 of engagement cash from Mazda he could use to discount the car if you arranged your own financing. It sounds like he basically split that with you, so you ended up anywhere from $750 to $1,050 OVER invoice after factoring ... Read More...

Mazda5 Owners - Give Us Your Report

Re: 2010 Mazda Mzda5 - nowhere to be found [vicenac]

Written by: coolmazda5 on Sep 21, 2009 06:00 PM

The Mazda5 is not Mazda's best selling model so it has been never overstocked around, especially as it is only built in Japan (except China, they get their own plant). That and C4C basically depleted all the inventory around. Having said that since 07 Mazda has been always late for launching the Mazda5 in the US (and Canada) so I doubt there are any 2010 around yet... ... Read More...

Re: Dealer's Reply on OTD (Out-The-Door) Price [bgrass2]

Written by: vikg on Sep 02, 2009 07:01 PM

If I read your story right, the dealer is offering you to buy the car for the 17949 + tax, license and fees. 6% tax on that brings it up to only 19025.94 though. So I don't know if it's really $573 for license and fees or if there is some other trickiness going on. I would clarify exactly where that $573 is going. Cash 4 Clunkers has cleared out the sitting inventory of Mazda5's, ... Read More...

Following up to my own post, University Mazda in Seattle appears to have the rebate on their site. According to http://www.umazda.com/NewModelsPage, the 2009 Mazda5 can be had for "0.9% APR for up to 36 MONTHS PLUS $500 Customer Cash (7)". Doesn't sound like cash4clunkers ... anybody know what's up here? Thanks! Vik Read More...

Mazda5 Extended Warranty

Re: Extended Warranty [Quickbeam]

Just bought my new 2009 Mazda5 GT, love it. The fiance manager from the dealership asked for $1795 for a zero-deductible 10 years / 120k top of the line extended warranty covering most everything from Mazda the manufacturer. She quickly dropped it to $1400 when I said I don't need it. At $1400 it is very tempting especially it is zero dedutible and last 10 years /120k. ... Read More...

Mazda 5 vs Kia Rondo

Re: July 2009 Sales (US) [tourist1292]

Written by: coolmazda5 on Aug 06, 2009 08:22 AM

So it seems that in this case KIA is being bitten back by offering way too many options for a single model nowadays. That was its strength in past months however. Oh well, I hope the Rondo and the Mazda5 stay in the KIA and Mazda line-ups in the US for the next generation, competition is always healthy (those KIA numbers don't help today though, the Rondo is just ahead ...

Coolmazda5.... So what do you think? Our Mazda5's are not cars but are not really mini-vans. They are not SUV's because they do not classify as that type of vehicle so therefore they do not come standard with privacy glass. Most people call them wagons but they raise contraversy because it has slider doors like a mini-van...which is not, and now the government ... Read More...
