I have had my Mazda 3 for around 5 - 6 months, i really like the car but recently I am having a few problems with it. I took the car to Ajax Mazda (where I bought it... oops) and they don\'t feel the need to do anything about it.
Problems,
Clutch noise, passanger door rattles, driver door rattles, under passanger side dash rattles, glovebox rattle, the wipers are horrible and make a rattle noise near the front of the dash, my driver side mirror has warped and the one final problem that really gets to me, sometimes (3 / 10times when I get into my car, I get a weird squeeking sound (like springs compressing) is this normal? or is there something wrong...?
Now I do understand some of these are small problems, but, the rattles are really starting to drive me insane and lets keep in mind that its only 6 months old.
Should I take the car back to Ajax Mazda, or should I find a new dealer? (I would probably perfer to find a new dealer for my regular service visits as when I bought the car from Ajax Mazda it was aggreed that I would receive my first 3 oil changes for free. When I took it in for its 8000km service, the bill was 72.23? (Apparently that is with the discount for the oil change)???
Please reply with some suggestions, thank you.

P.S. - I have been sort of anti Mazda / Mazda 3 on here for the last week or so, I appoligize, I just want to get all fixed up and like my car again.
