Used 2023 Mazda MAZDA3 for Sale near Mississauga, ON

Good value for the price and mileage. I own a 2013 Mazda 3 and love the reliability of this brand.

The car feels premium without the premium price tag.

The Good: Interior looks great, exterior looks great. Oil pan plug and filter are very easy to access. Sound system is great (thanks bose). Media center knob is better than a touch screen. Manual transmission + snow tires makes this car one of the best Ive had in New England winters traction-wise. Good gas mileage. The Bad... THE WHOLE THING RATTLES on the interior and Mazda will not address it. They cannot guarantee it is a warrantee issue and will not look at the car w/o assessing the hourly shop fees, even though the car is well within warrantee . Car is just over a year old with <20k miles and rattles worse than the 22 y/o CRV it replaced. Engine is very underpowered and turbo charger is not available w/manual shift transmission. The key fob is annoying beyond words, the car seemingly decides when it will/wont lock which is a fun feature. Shift knob leather is very cheap and is already peeling from normal use. Rear window visibility is almost non-existent even with a hatchback. Heads up display cannot be disabled permanently, has to be shut off every time. Windshield spray goes everywhere but the windshield. Windshield washer fluid low warning takes over entire speedometer, seems safe. No heated mirrors in the premium package you are forced to buy to get the manual transmission. Unlock button on the rear hatch does not work for the passenger doors. First new car Ive ever owned and cant say I would buy another Mazda again based off of this experience. Again, aesthetically Mazda is not challenged by many other brands in this price range. However, the quality of the vehicle is definitely not what I came to expect from anecdotal evidence nor what I read online prior to purchase.

I bought a 2023 Mazda 3 Preferred Trim sedan about 8 months ago.. It replaced a very reliable, durable, but outdated Buick Verano. I miss the Buick. The Mazda rides and handles great, has good safety ratings, and is pretty inside and out. Those are the main pros. As for the cons, there are many. This car has been extremely hard to live with, and I’m actually considering trading it in. As another reviewer noted, the key fob is very annoying - if you put it in your pocket, beware, because if you move the wrong way, you can accidentally open the trunk release or set off the panic alarm. I’ve done this many times already. The blind spot warning simply doesn’t work right. It warns you when a car is near you in another lane, but not when it’s too close to you. The other safety features are also annoying and overly sensitive. I’ve turned a few off, but some you can’t. The instrument display can suddenly go dark without any warning, there is very little headroom in the car, and the rotary dial interface is just too cumbersome for very simple actions, like changing a radio station. The car also surges when shifting, and I’ve already had some paint chips for no reason. Overall, a very frustrating and annoying ownership experience. If only Mazda had spent more time actually creating a car that is enjoyable to live with not just drive, things might be different.
