[My Rant]

I know there are a million threads about it but I am just really pissed off.
After spending a couple months last year looking for a Mazda3 Hatch in good shape with no rust I was so happy to find mine. Not a spot of rust on her when I drove her home.

Now almost exactly a year later.............yep two small rust bubbles on the passenger side B-pillar and one on the drive side B-pillar.

I'm letting this car rust to shit and then driving it off a cliff!!

Never again Mazda, never again.

^ Yeah that wouldn't have helped.

I feel your pain. I'm gonna have to sell mine soon if it keeps up like this (I've been in about 5 times now and it keeps coming back). I really don't wanna sell it tho :(

Wouldn't have helped much, if at all.

The car has no rust anywhere else, nothing on the wheel wells or any other common places. Just the b-pillar.

Why? because it was a stupid ass design in the first place.

It is a shame, I feel the same way as mazdabetty. I really like this car and if it was not happening I would praise Mazda for making such a great little car. However I like my car to be in good shape, and this car will never be like that for me now.

It will just be a rust bucket I am waiting to get ride of. Not the kind of car I want to have.

I have a few rust spots on my 07 hatch due to a few rocks chips on the roof. They are starting to rust a bit so i touched them up but i have a bad feeling that they are going to get worse!

My 2005 is now my winter beater, no point trying to fix the rust, will just keep coming back.. just drive it in the winter till it turns to a pathetic rust bucket. Thats why I didn't buy a new Mazda of any model.

ive alreay had my wheel wells fixed and my side b-pillars are bubbleing, i bought rust killer and rust proffed it myself, sprayed it into the doors through the holes for the weather stripping.
