I think the point is getting lost.. My 11 year old Acura indicates that the "fuel cap" is loose where as the modern 2019 car displays an all encompassing warning. The car didn't show any code, just the warning I posted seems like an overkill of a warning system. The point isn't that I could...

Will be checking it more carefully now. But here in NJ we don't pump our own gas so didn't think it would be the fuel cap. I'm just more amazed at the fact that the warning is not detailed or specific.

Solid

So my 2019 CX-5 with less than 2,500 Miles had the weirdest check engine light and warning sign. The Check Engine Light came on and the Vehicle Status screen showed the following warning, "Engine System Malfunction. Have the vehicle check by a dealer immediately" We took it to the dealer and...

That's great!!! Thanks.

Can you post the link to the product for the auto start? Also, how much did the whole thing cost?

So, I don't know how you can get out of this particular situation but start emailing dealers in surrounding and extended areas and see what prices you get. I never tell anyone what quote I got from another dealer. Because once you tell them a price there is no benefit to them to offer you the...

I think you've got room to negotiate. From reading here, rule of thumb is minimum 8 to 10% before any incentives.

Yes, $31,500 before Tax, Title and Doc Fee. Also, my paint is extra $200 MSRP. Have you checked Mazda's website to make sure there's no 0.9% in your area? I just checked and they're offering both.

How are you financing? Are you a current Mazda owner? Mazda is running $1k customer cash or 0.9% financing. Also has some additional loyalty CB. We do not talk about OTD pricing here as the tax rate and doc fees varies greatly. I purchased a 2019 GT with premium package in Snow Pearl White...

You're probably right about comparing the 2.5L v 2.5T in the cx-5 and with the added weight over the years the difference is more noticeable compared to someone who didn't drive the pre 2017 CX-5. But when comparing it to the competition's CR-V, RAV4, etc I think the NA 2.5 is plenty. IMO

Nothing to be embarrassed about...these are the kind of experiences help others out. Thank you for sharing.

I think due to Mazda being a smaller company, they are limited with their engine development. They had the 2.5T with the CX9, so it was a natural progression for them to bring it to the CX5 and other models. I think the longer a company uses a said engine the better reliability becomes..see...

I didn't own a mazda or a crossover previously so I don't have a NA 4 to compare it to for MPG as I am only comparing it to the current mpgs for NA (26 mixed) vs Turbo (24 mixed) per Edmunds. And my driving conditions are not same as yours and that's exactly why I love having the options which...

I have not driven one but I don't doubt that turbos provide an improved driving experience specially when paired with Mazda's driving dynamics. I just think that turbos will result in higher overall maintenance and ownership costs over time. Just for example, turbos are recommended to have...
