Looking to purchase Mazda fluids and parts online. Who has the best service?

Curious did you ask your local dealer to price match?

I did, and they refused.

But to be fair, I haven't had many good experiences with the local Mazda Dealer.

When I bought our CX-5, they pulled a bait and switch which I walked away from. I called in, put a deposit on the car over the phone because I was certain that this was the one, and when I showed up not even 20 minutes later, it was already sold.

They offered me a "great deal on a new CX-5", but short of matching the price for the used one I wanted with identical equipment, I wasn't going to accept their offer. And they dragged their feet on the refund to the point where I had to file a chargeback with Amex. I ended up buying our CX-5 from a dealer 15 miles away for less than the dealer next to me wanted.

To this day, I will only set foot there for oil changes - and only if they have a coupon that puts it for dirt cheap.

On top of this, based on my experience from a previous car purchasing attempt (and after speaking with other people), they have a horrible reputation for lowballing on trades.

The only reason this dealer stays in business is that they're the only dealer for any brand in the area they're at.

Med Center is FANTASTIC.

I agree with this 100%. I am looking for small parts for the cargo cover on a CX-9 and sent them an e-mail. They said they only have the back two pieces but I could have them. They charged me nothing and shipped them to me for free. Call me 100% impressed.

Local dealers?

I once saw ads for about 40% off all parts and accessories.

Ended up, their MSRP was very inflated. Even after 40% off, the price was 30% higher than internet price. Buyers beware...
