Should I dump this car before the warranty is up?

I have a 2013 Chevy Cruze LTZ with 38,000 miles on it. I am the original owner and so far I have had these issues with it.

1) Blind spot detection module on both sides replaced not once but twice (this is my personal fav).

2) Water Pump replaced

3) Right Axel Seal

4) Trunk Latch Button

5) Oil Pan gasket leaking (my ’94 Mustang has never had gaskets replaced, does not leak)

6) Door handle unlock button (on the outside)

7) Passenger side window regulator loose

8) Rear brake pads @ 30,000 miles

9) Rear brake seized up, plus brakes were rusted so I needed all new brakes plus rotors @ 34,000 miles

(yes 4000 miles later).

10) Yesterday I got a “service theft deterrent system”, which completely locked the car up.

The five year powertrain warranty is up in February. Should I dump this car? I was thinking about a Mazda 3 or Mazda CX-5, are they more reliable?

Thanks for you advice.

    I would dump it because I don't buy American.

    ABSOLUTELY. You should have got rid of it a long time ago.

    Not too good at picking vehicles that don't have problems are you?!

    I'd buy a KIA, Mitsubishi, Toyota, Honda or Hyundai before considering a Mazda!

    Yes, but sell it privately. Do not trade it in because you'll get far less for it if you do. Then buy a new Japanese car that is still being built in Japan, not USA or Mexico. All Mazdas are made in Japan except for the Mazda 3.
