Mazda Mazda5 2007Change

My 2007 Mazda has been the most reliable vehicle i have ever owned. It has been through many family road trips and family additions. We are nearly at 200 000 km and still going strong. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone wanting a reliable family vehicle. My only complaint is a lack of leg room in the third row seats. I have 3 kids and my 7 year old is starting to complain about the amount of leg space he has back there. The Mazda 5 is perfect vehicle for a family of 4.

I have had this car since 2013, and I enjoy it. It has served me well for road trips around Ontario, and runs quite well in the winter.

My main issue is that though there are 6 seats, the 2 rear-most seats don't provide much leg room at all, and would be a tight fit to get someone over 5'6" into (I don't make use of those seats, but I did test them myself by attempting to sit in the rear seat to see if it was possible and I had no leg room, even after moving the two seats in front of it all the way forward).

That being said, it works great when you need to haul larger items around. Fuel economy is decent for the vehicle, though I wish it was a 5 speed automatic vs a 4 speed, as I feel that could help the fuel economy by adding another gear. I have just started to see rust develop around the rear fenders, but I expected this to happen as this seems to be common with Mazda's. All in all, this car is reliable, good on gas, and has been relatively cheap to maintain.

Perfect and reliable commuter for a family! Saves a lot of money on gas, durable, reliable acend stylish! Takes very little for maitenance.

But it drives like a zippy car, If you need practical and lots of room but don't want a mini van get a Mazda 5. Great for family or moving a lot of stuff about.

Bought car at 15,000 km. It is the perfect vehicle for travelling near or far. The back windows are tinted so it has security when carrying things or heat protection when carrying groceries.
Love the fact you can fold the back 4 seats or carry 6 people. It is a safe, dependable good looking car. The climate control, auto wipers & lights are a plus.

if you want a car with low maintenance, high reliability this is it. Simple styling with all the comforts and gadgets of more expensive rides.

great family fun car. functional and very fuel efficient.
fun to drive, especially with the manual transmission and it is great on gas. Love the self locking side slider doors which prevents the need to slam the doors closed.

Spacious, great on gas- This car is great for families- safety locks on the passengar side doors ensure your children are safe- I would recommend this vehicle to all families looking for a reliable vehicle

We got this car used from the dealership. It was taken cared of very well and we are continuing its proper maintenance. Its very spacious for a van based on a sedan's chassis.

I bought a 2007 Mazda 5 and it was a nightmare! It would lose all power while driving! it would simply no be letting gas get through. it was very scary as my children and myself were almost killed a number of times.I spent hours upon hours upon hours of my time with mechanics and business men trying to find the problem and NOTHING! they could not find what or why the problem was happening, so after spending thousands of dollars on trying to fix the car I had to take it off the road. I put it up for sale for half of what I originally paid for it and of course I could not let someone else buy it without letting them know the horrific problems that I had. It wasn't very promising to find someone that wanted to buy my Mazda 5 with all the problems.Well to my surprise someone was actually willing and wanting to buy my car with all the problems. So it was sold Yay! Now at least I got back a few dollars from my horrific time with the Mazda!

Assumed the lease on this miniature minivan and was pretty happy with it overall. The interior has everything you need within reach and I love the steering wheel audio controls. It also shifts really smoothly and has a bit of kick for minivan. While the Mazda 5 doesn't offer a ton of space, it's very comfortable and the minivan sliding doors are a big help when you're dealing with kids and car seats! Unfortunately, you can either have extra passengers or gear because there isn't much cargo space behind the third row seats; although it's more manageable with the seats folded down and a maximum of four people in the vehicle. We drove the Mazda 5 from Ontario to BC and back and it performed beautifully the whole way. Although we did have to add roof racks and a cargo bag before the trip, we were pretty comfortable for two adults and two kids, even on days when we were driving up to 8 hours a day and with a few weeks worth of gear, stroller, playpen, etc. While another child and a dog means moving up to something bigger, we are still really happy with the Mazda 5 and would definitely have driven it for many years to come if we hadn't needed the extra space.

The 2007 Mazda 5 is a great vehicle for those looking for something sporty that is actually very fun to drive. To be honest I believe that the Mazda 5 is a great option for those in need of a minivan that handles more like a car. When it comes to everyday chores the back life gate along with all the cargo room it has to offer is a real plus. My wife and I really like the side sliding doors as they come in very handy as well. If I had one complaint it would be that the model we own didn't come with cruise control which is a must for those who do a lot of highway driving. One reason I purchased the Mazda 5 was due to its versatility and its great amount of cargo space. All I can say is that if you are looking for a fun to drive minivan the Mazda 5 is the vehicle you want.

Great car - no problems. Perfect for a family. Very versatile - will seat six. With the back two rows down there is lots of cargo room.

Love this car- I have 2 young children and the Mazda offers exactly what I would expect from a family vehicle- Fuel efficient, roomy and very practical! The 5 passenger seating is great and not to mention the fact that the 2 back seats fold down for extra truck space- I would recommend this car to any family who looks for reliability and efficiency!

I purchased this car in 2007- just after having my second child- I needed a car that offered plenty of space- and that it did! The Mazda 5 is equipped with 5 passengar seats and plenty of cargo space- the sliding doors make it easy for a mom like me to get the kids easily in and out of the car- The gas savings is incredible- With consistent highway driving daily, I find myself getting the most of every mile - The cross over between mini van and car is eye appealing- the car itself has received many compliments- In fact, I convinced a friend of mine to purchase one as well - Great car overall!

Fantastic driving van, feels like a car in every way except for the extra room! Owned for 5 years with zero problems a great vehicle to pickup new or used. Only complaint I have ever had is no Aux jack for MP3 so my XM radio has a little more static than I would prefer. Otherwise I recommend 100%

i have been driving this car for 5.5 years... in that time only had to replace rear shocks @ 110K, the front brakes after 5+ years at 120K... not bad... doesn't burn oil... HATE low profile tires tho... one and only time i will have a vehicle with them... seats are uncomfortable for long drives but the engine has been reliable so far... one minor glitch just under 3 years with a valve that was replaced under warranty... i don't LOVE it but i don't hate it either...
