Mazda Mazda6 Reliability through December 31, 2012
General NotesModels and statistics marked with an asterisk (*) have very low sample sizes. These results, visible only to logged-in members, provide only a rough estimate of car reliability.Any result under 20 repair trips per 100 cars is likely a result of the small sample size, and should be expected to increase to 20 or so in future updates.
New models often start out with high repair rates, and then improve as the manufacturer identifies and addresses common problems. MethodologyOnly successfully completed repairs are currently included in the analysis. Routine maintenance, most wear items, recalls, and problems fixed with just a reflash or warning light reset are not included.

| Nov | 2010 | 15000 | 0 | The autoshift shifter on my 6 does not return to the up position. It has become sticky. The dealer lubed it, but that did not fix the problem. Not a serious problem, but the car's got 15,000 on it! |
| Dec | 2010 | 16000 | 0 | Dealer decided to completely replace the sticky shifter knob. Ordered on a Monday, in by Tuesday, and I picked the car up Tuesday night... Works fine now. |
| Oct | 2011 | 25000 | 0 | Replaced light bar on spoiler... Probably cosmetic,but the car is still under warranty, and would not pass PA inspection. |
| Apr | 2012 | 29000 | 0 | Some TSB about the grease used in the calipers that creates suction when the brakes are released, which makes a clicking sound... Does not affect how the car drives. |
