    What do I need to know about a roof cargo box?

    Just get one that opens from the side. Rear entry on the CX9 would be very difficult with the lack of bumper to stand on and the long reach over the hatch.

    Very happy with the Deep Crystal blue mica color

    I don't need the pics (not working for me either) because I have the same color. It's beautiful in the sunlight.

    "Auto Pilot" Rating?

    If it won't retain the off setting you could try turning down the brightness setting to the minimum and/or move it up or down out of your vision.

    "Auto Pilot" Rating?

    There could be an issue if you are in a right lane that can turn right on red. If the cars in front of you all turn right and you approach the front and are going straight, your car would resume at your set speed through a red light. I can't say for sure because I've never used it on a road...

    Auto unlock options?

    Get a Tesla Model S- Walk up to it (with fob in pocket) and the doors unlock and the handles present themselves. Sit down and step on the brake and put the car in D or R and take off. I think the Model X even pops the doors open for you if you press on the handles. Or you could push a button...

    Would you buy? CX-6

    Yes, I would buy the Mazda 6 wagon if it was available in the US, but not a raised, plastic clad version. I was very close to purchasing the Volvo V90 (not the Cross Country version) but with the 70K+ price I just couldn't do it. I really didn't want a SUV but the CX9 was the best of the bunch...

    2018 CX-9 Grand Touring DRL LED ring?

    Are you sure they are not on? They only come on with the car in drive and with forward motion. It seems silly to me but that is the way they work. Have someone else look while you pull up towards them.

    TC CX9 Bonnet protector - Smoke

    Every one of these that I have seen have been held on with double sided tape. No worries.

    Sudden Unintentional Acceleration Of 2016 CX-9?

    Most likely driver error as is 99% of these type of accidents. Cars nowadays record driver inputs like brake and gas pedal applications. It should be easy to get that data to the owner but they will probably have to jump through a few hoops.

    Backup camera water droplets

    That's usually something (the overexposure) that can be helped with a software update. Please report it to Mazda.

    CX9 2017 wouldn't start

    Or Tesla. On my wife's Tesla if something is not working properly that is what you do. You can reboot the main screen and the instrument panel screen. And we have to do it a lot. AC stops working-Reboot, the door handles don't present-Reboot, the mirrors don't unfold-Reboot, the radio freaks...

    CX-9 OEM Trailer Hitch, wiring?

    Did you install it like they did in the video with the wiring coming out the rear hatch? While it may work, there has got to be a better way than that.

    2018 computer showing empty fuel tank too early

    Having almost a quarter of a tank once you hit E is a little excessive but as long as it is consistent I am fine with the large "reserve". It's too early to tell as I've only had 5 or so fill ups and only 3 times have I run it that low.

    2018 computer showing empty fuel tank too early

    19 gallon tank for the FWD and 19.5 for the AWD.

    2018 computer showing empty fuel tank too early

    Yes, exactly the same as I get. At least it has been consistent through all 5 fill ups.

    2017 CX-9 Crossbar confirmation

    No, I would think the aftermarket could be installed anywhere along the rail. Another positive for them. They clamp on to the rail instead of bolting to it at least that's how they have worked on other cars I have owned.

    2017 CX-9 Crossbar confirmation

    The aftermarket are probably stronger and give you more clearance below the bars for attaching things to them. I have the Mazda bars and they are fine for most modern cargo boxes. I have two boxes and the newer one fits fine while the older larger one is extremely tight under the bars due to...

    What have you done to your CX-9 today?

    sm1ke- I bet you'll be returning or selling the dash cover you ordered too. The CX5 is similar but not the same as the CX9 console. If you find one that fits please post it here. I am looking for something similar. I'll probably just have it wrapped.

    CX-9 Gear shift frame cover / surround replacement options?

    There is always this. Carbon Fiber https://www.carid.com/2018-mazda-cx-9-carbon-fiber-dash-kits/ bad link- just search on carid dash kits But way too much is being covered for my taste. All I want covered is the parts that are covered in wood on the Signature edition. And maybe the gear...

    2016-2018 CX 9 rear tunnel mat

    I went with the 3D Maxpider matts all around. The rear hump is covered. I really like them. They do show dirt fairly easily but it's easy enough to take them out and hose them down. I may end up cutting them to make raising the 3rd row a simpler process.
