Great functionality / Major issues with reliability
In terms of functionality car is unmatched as all other options are either too big or lack versatility.
In terms of reliability, already on 3rd clutch for this car, as it uses Mazda 2 and 3 clutch platform. In addition, the gear box was replaced under warranty. I have never had clutch problems with our manual VW or Honda.
Rear suspension, struts and mounts, was replaced 3 times as it is not robust to handle the weight of Mazda 5.
Air-conditioning compressor locked, blew the AC clutch, and subsequently the condenser and some of the piping.
Break pads, regardless of brand or type ceramic or organic compound last no longer than 2 years.
Already replaced the crankshaft sensor (around 89k) and the air intake sensor (105k).
Fully replaced the exhaust pipes as the original fell off while driving on the highway.
