any suggestions on were to take my car to who knows what there doing

 

I've only taken my car to Young Mazda so far - the rotary mechanic there seems like a pretty cool guy... at least he seems to remember my car all the time. The service manager seems to be hit and miss depending on his mood.

While I haven't taken my car to Allentown Mazda, i've heard of and experienced some bad crap there.

 

thanks thats were i planned on taking it since im from nazareth there real close

 

take a look at faulkner mazda - I actually drove 2.5 hours to buy my car from them after my dealer backed out on my deal. I called, told them what price I had negotiated and the story, asked if they'd match it, and they said yes. The next day, I had a car.

Give them a try - ask for Renee Fargason, and tell her Mark sent you, the one who bought green rx8 in october

 

If your willing to drive a a few miles, I recommend Nucar Mazda down in Delaware. Best service in the PA/Philly/DE area. I was going to try Faulkner Mazda but have heard a few customers complaints from people I know about their customer service.

 

Did you check the good guy/bad guy forum?

I bought mine at Pacifico. Haven't taken it for service, but I had a good buying experience.

 

Well I certainly would not recommend John Kennedy Mazda in Conshohocken. I've been less than pleased with the service I've been getting from them lately. I don't know if they have new service techs or what, but they aren't nearly as good as they were a year ago.

 

thanks for all the info guys glad to see some 8s around were i live

 

close to me two... since i'm only 1.5 towns west of nazereth

 

i also recommend faulkner. theyre a volume dealer, and i think theyve been there longer than anyone else. I had a good buying experience there

 

is that in quaker town

 

Allentown Mazda do what is needed but nothing more. Takes a little less than 2 weeks to schedule an appointment with a loaner car which hasn't been a big problem for me. They have kept me up to date with flashes (now at M and think I want to stay here) and did the Brake TSB after I pushed a little. they are not proactive with things but with this site, I don't really need them to be more than a pair of hands and they do that well. In the end, I haven't had any problems with my car other than squealing brakes which they fixed.

 

ill give youngs mazda the first shot. its about 1000 miles till first oil change.told them about the brakes and to see what flash im at. hope everything goes ok
