Yesterday when I got home in my C3 Aircross Flair automatic, at 11am my next door neighbour was outside with her brand new Mazda 3 SUV. Nice. How is it I asked, expecting a glowing account, nut no this is what she said
I picked it up at 10 am drove home and it's going back now.
Why?
The tyre pressure monitor keeps going off and won't reset. There's no drivers mini handbook or the emergency number card.
Well done Mazda 1 hour of ownership.
This must be a record.

I went camping in a very remote part of Scotland. A chap turns up in a brand new Mazda 3. We sit having brekki watching him clearly in some distress, pressing buttons and looking confused.
Long story short....it was the Citroen rescuing the Mazda....jump starting it...so he could atleast get going to a Mazda dealer ( in the middle of remote Scotland ). Turns out it was plagued with electrical gremlins and a battery drain.
Saw him a few days later after he'd called recovery a further 3 times. He packed up and went home calling his trip short, so he could get some new parts fitted.
Ouch.
