Mazda MPV
| | Model of the car: | Mazda MPV | | | General comments: | After researching and test driving many minivans, the MPV is the only one that met most of my requirements. It is not too big. It has a decent stopping distance (60-0 in 128ft vs. 141ft on the Oddysey). It has windows that roll down on the sliding doors, and it has leather and an entertaintment system for the kids. The only problem I have found is that the sliding doors do not lock in the open position. This can be a safety hazard if you park facing a downward slope and the doors accidentally close on you or your kid(s). All the other minivans I have checked out (Oddysey, Caravan, Siena, etc) have sliding doors that lock in place and can only close when the handle is pulled or when the remote is activated (for those with power doors). I was surprised that no-one noticed this in past reviews. | | | What things have gone wrong with the car: | Lack of power for going through hills in NJ and PA.Lack of safety lock for sliding doors to prevent accidental closing.Weak bumpers. | | | Previous car: | None |
