Default Regrets?
It seems that more and more of us are falling victim to the power steering failure.

I have had a lot of people ask me if i regret buying the car after this issue.
I personally love the car and have no regrets caused by this problem.

I was just curious if anybody has had regrets for buying your 3 whether you have had this problem or not?

Why not start a yes/no poll on this thread?
I have an '04 and so far (knock on wood) I have not experienced this problem.

no regrets at all. I had the power steering problem happen to me once. After the car was off for 30 min it worked perfect!

I would get that looked at and repaired before it goes out after warranty, if it isn't already.
Mine worked fine untill I took it to the dealer, and luckily it failed on them.

OK, I have to play devil's advocate here (Hey!! I've worked 23hrs in 2 days and only slept 12 hrs total, when normally I would've only worked 16 and slept +/-16. I'm a little flaky right now)....
What if your current Mazda3 looked like the 2010 Mazda3 AND you had the PS problem? Would you regret the decision then?
