Mazda was proud to be named the most reliable car brand of the year in 2020 and will only be getting more reliable in the years to come. Though Mazda maintenance and service repair costs are much lower and less frequent than other car brands, it's still helpful to understand and know what common Mazda maintenance costs will be.
Maintaining Your Mazda
Every new Mazda comes with a limited warranty that will provide coverage for any vehicle repairs within the first few years of ownership (warranty details differ upon vehicle contract). You can also add a Mazda Extended Confidence warranty after your initial vehicle warranty has expired to cover nearly all of the same parts and components.
After the first 5,000 miles, regular car maintenance should be expected, and staying on top of it will keep your vehicle running well for years to come. Getting a Mazda oil change every 3-5k miles and checking your fluids and tire pressure can keep your vehicle running at its best (while keeping your yearly maintenance costs down).
When you take your car in for scheduled maintenance, be sure the service department or mechanic is checking the engine oil, tire pressure, wiper blades, brake pads, and fluids including motor oil, radiator coolant, brake fluid, coolant levels, power steering fluid, and windshield wiper fluid. When you bring your car into a Mazda Dealership you will receive a Mazda Full Circle Service Inspection and report card with details about anything your Mazda might need.
How Much Does it Cost to Maintain a Mazda?
Mazda maintenance costs will vary depending on make, model, and engine type. However, Mazda is known as being the most reliable vehicle brand with surprisingly low repair costs across its models.
