 Love the Car but it's time to go back to a 4-seater. I purchased from a friend in August 2013. I was really surprised how well it handled. I've gotten 30 mpg in town & 34 mpg  on longer trips. It had 208,000 miles when I got it. I have driven it to Ohio, Georgia several times, use it daily to town.  She's been very dependable.  Feb.  had waterpump, serpentine belt & timing belt replaced & also 2 heater hoses. Air conditioning is very cold, heater is very hot. The previous owner said tires wear well on it, & I agree. Tires are same as when purchased, but still alot of tread left. been rotated. Oil & filter been changed 3 times since I had. Plugs replaced once. Everything else same as since I had.

Paint is original and was faded when I purchased, 2 weeks after I got, our road was re-paved, thought it would be a good thing, but county is trying to save money and are re-cycle paving.  Bad for cars. Lots of little rocks & little chips in paint(see pictures)but it was faded. Then in January, someone backed into passenger door in a parking lot(so door repair or replacement will be needed). Door is still fully functional.  License plate piece needs to be replaced(a 2-liter soda dropped while unloading groceries-see pictures)

No body rust(except on edge of door that needs repair from a previous owner mishap).  Seats have covers on until car is sold.

Top had a cut in top that my friend put duct tape on(I removed & put a patch of vinyl with shoe goo inside & out; hasn't leaked yet). I use 303 protectant on top, vinyl & rubber.

All doors, windows, latches, door locks, and mechanical work. *PLEASE LOOK AT ALL PICTURES, MACRO ON CAMERA USED TO SHOW DETAIL*PICTURES ARE PART OF DESCRIPTION.

I still drive daily, so miles may end up being slightly more or less(I estimated to end of auction)No long trips planned.

Thanks & Happy Bidding.
 ** *Plan to pay, pickup or arrange for shipping. Payment in full required within 7 days of end of auction by money order/cashiers check/cash.  500.00 deposit required through paypal within 24 hours of end of auction.******

Mazda halts Mazda3 sales for fuel tank problem

Tue, Oct 6 2015

Mazda is issuing a stop sale and recall on 14,406 examples of the 2015-2016 Mazda3 in the US with build dates between May 21, 2015, and August 24, 2015, due to a possible fuel leak. There are no reports or accidents or injuries from this problem. According to the company, a defective fuel shut-off valve can allow gasoline to move from the tank and fill the charcoal emissions canister. If it gets too full, there can be a leak, which obviously carries the risk of a possible fire. The engine might stall, as well. Affected owners will be notified to bring their Mazda3 in "as soon as possible." Dealers will inspect the vehicles, and if a problem is found, the fuel tank and charcoal emissions canister will be replaced. During the downtime, customers will get a free rental or loaner car, as well. Those who are particularly concerned can also call Mazda roadside assistance to have their vehicle delivered for the check and possible repair. Related Video: Mazda Issues Stop Sale and Stop Delivery for Mazda3 Fuel Tank Recall WASHINGTON, DC (October 2, 2015) – Mazda Motor Corporation will conduct a Safety and Emission Recall Campaign for certain 2015-2016 Mazda3 vehicles (built from May 21, 2015 through August 24, 2015), which could have a safety-related problem. A defect in the fuel shut-off valve may allow fuel to flow from the fuel tank into the charcoal emissions canister. With this condition, the check engine light may illuminate, and if the fuel exceeds the canister capacity, fuel leakage could occur, increasing the risk of a fire and/or engine stalling. Approximately 14,270 vehicles in the U.S. and 136 vehicles in Puerto Rico are affected. Owners of subject vehicles will be notified by mail in early October. They will be informed to bring their vehicle to the nearest Mazda dealer as soon as possible. Dealers will inspect the fuel tank to determine if the defect exists on the vehicle. If the defect exists, the dealer will replace the fuel tank and charcoal canister at no cost to the customer. A rental or loaner vehicle will be provided at no cost to the owner, until the vehicle is repaired for this concern. If there are no concerns, the vehicle will be returned to the customer. Should a customer not want to drive the vehicle to the dealership, they may contact Mazda's 24-hour Roadside Assistance service at 800-866-1998 and have the vehicle picked up and delivered to the dealership. There have been no reports of accidents or injury related to this issue.

Mazda struggles to meet demand on rising sales

Mon, 23 Sep 2013


For Mazda there's good and not-so-good news on the heels of strong US sales in 2012: demand is high - especially for the Mazda3, Mazda6 and CX-5 - but supply is low, TheDetroitBureau.com reports. That's partly because all Mazda production happens in Japan, since it ended its alliance with Ford and pulled out of a joint venture with the blue oval building cars in suburban Detroit last year.
In 2012, Mazda sales here jumped 26.4 percent, but 2013 sales through August have just been keeping pace with the overall US auto industry, increasing at a rate of 6.8 percent. Mazda North American Operations director of marketing and communications Jeremy Barnes says that sales have slowed because the company is facing challenges delivering products here.
