    Parking lot - accident. Need help

    Not always true. Someone hit my 2014 cx5 3 weeks after I bought it aND took off. Repairs were $2700 my ins didn't go up. The resale value is a good point since I am going through that now with mine. I have pictures of the damage and the body shop paperwork showing factory parts were used...

    2015 CX-5 noise when unlocking door at morning

    The dealership just replaced mine for "making excessive noise". I hadn't even noticed but the tech caught it while my car was there for other warranty work.

    Goodbye, CX-5

    My Pandora listening has definitely increased because of this car. While I am complaining I still don't think the CX-5's are a bad car by any means. They have their positives as well.

    Goodbye, CX-5

    Funny. I never enjoy having nonsense issues with a modern car or fixing them.

    Goodbye, CX-5

    Yes. It is pretty ridiculous. I have a 2007 F150 that gets better reception than my "new" car. And I can't blame the antenna because my WRX had the same style and it was fine. Who knows.

    Goodbye, CX-5

    You dodged a bullet. The Focus I had was a nightmare with neither Ford or the dealership giving a damn about making it right. I will never spend another penny on a Ford product if I can help it. I'm about to sell my CX5 and take a pretty big financial hit as well. I just don't like the...

    Key FOB Auto Locked Inside Car

    That is strange. My 2014 will not allow me to lock the keys in the car. Saved my butt a few times now.

    Which mats to get ?

    My OEM all-weather mats have been really good for almost 2 years now. Obviously the drivers side is dirty but the cargo mat and the passenger floor mat still look almost new.

    Class-Action Suit Over Lack of Advertised Real-Time Traffic

    Isn't this something you should have figured out before you bought? Talking about lawsuits over "real time" traffic sounds silly. And besides it won't even be a problem once you realize how horrible the GPS is anyway.

    Brand new cx-5 - what's the first thing you do?

    The only thing I did was buy the plastic floor and cargo mats at the dealer and put them in before I drove off. I later orders the sill plates but the directions seemed to involved when they showed up so I decided to deal with it "soon", that was a year and a half ago. Lol.. I know I am not...

    New car, Air Conditioning smells

    Mine stunk until the outside temps started getting 90+ daily. Didn't get a chance to take it in, when the funk returns I will.
