    2016~2023 5-pin flat trailer connection

    My trailer requires a 5-pin flat connector coming from the CX-9. The 5th wire in the reverse. I installed the 4-pin connector, but I don't know where to tap into reverse since the reverse lights are in the hatch starting in 2016. Can anyone help?

    I know how to connect a standard 4-wire trailer connection. My trailer also requires a 5th wire connected into the reverse light circuit. Where can I find the reverse wire on the car?

    16-17 owners ... what warranty work have you needed?

    CX-9 2016 - I had infotainment problems with screen going dark, freezes etc. Dealer tried new SD card which made it better, but not fixed. Eventually dealer replaced the entire screen. Now fixed. I had the weather strip noise others mentioned. That's about it. I loved the car, but traded for a...

    2016~2023 Heating system lights on the buttons

    I just picked up a 2019 CX 9. I did a lot of research before buying it and trading a 2016 CX 9. Don't ask why. Well one thing really seems like a design error. On the heater controls at night, when you turn it on, the display lights up as do all the surrounding buttons. Yet in daylight, when you...

    CX-9 is in running for SUV of the year

    I shopped for a Highlander replacement on and off for a couple of years. Drove the Audi Q5, Volvo xc60 and 90, F-Pace and on and on. I never really considered the CX9. Then I read about it and took a drive or two. Wow I now own a Signature for the last month or so. I love everything about the...

    CX-9 is in running for SUV of the year

    I have had my 2016 CX9 for a month and have yet to experience the emergency breaking at all. I certainly would not call it "overzealous".

    Help with trailer wiring for 2016 CX9

    I bought everything at etrailer as well. When I didn't get a quick response to my post I just did it. Here are a few pointers I picked up. In addition to taking out the jack, I removed 2 other plastic parts at the bottom right. This made it easier to pull the panel far enough away from the...

    delimia of waiting for used or buying new?

    Where did you find 10%? That is amazing! As I said in a previous reply, I got 4% at a dealer fairly close to me and was happy with that. I just got mine 10 days ago and as a bonus it came with the ambient lighting package which is cool. In shopping around I was getting everything from full msrp...

    Getting to the trailer plug in the wiring harness in the new 2016.

    I'll reply to my own post. It took some effort, but I got the interior panel loose and installed the wiring harness for the trailer. There are 2 bolts that must be removed first. One is at the black plastic hook on top of the interior panel (passenger side) and the other is behind some plastic...

    delimia of waiting for used or buying new?

    The discount where I live in Maine/New Hampshire can be negotiated to around 4%. You have to see what you can get in your area. I go into a dealership and say exactly what I want to buy (color, trim level and options) and what I want to pay. I do all my shopping online so I know selling prices...

    delimia of waiting for used or buying new?

    I think it will be tough finding a used 2016 since they just came out in June 2016 I believe. You might save some if you can find a dealer demo unit with 2000-3000 miles on it once the 2017 comes out. I've read that the price will rise on the 2017 model and I also read that there is likely to be...

    Getting to the trailer plug in the wiring harness in the new 2016.

    This is a re-post from the "how to section". I have read previous posts on this, but need some advice on how to get to the wiring plug on the back passenger side. I removed the plastic trim piece across the back where the trunk latch is. Now I'm trying to pry off the interior panel on the right...

    Consumer Reports on the New CX 9

    Hi HerbM3, Since I first drove the F-Pace a few months ago, I was convinced I wanted that car. I was waiting for the diesel to come out to test drive it. It seems that will happen in Nov. While waiting I continued to read car reviews and came across the CX-9. Mazda had never been on my radar...
