Folks..
This is my first post after researching a bit in the form. I hope that some of you can share your personal experience with cx9. Last year I bought 2010 CX9 T model which has currently 15k miles. This summer, while I was driving out of state, lot of Tar got stuck on front drive side and rare driver side wheels.
I had to keep driving for about 250 miles as I was away from home. It was really bumpy ride for week or so as if one tire is flat. My mechanic after spending couple of hours was able to get off most of the tar from the wheels. He confessed that most times Tar should wear off after some drive but in this case it was just too much tar all over the wheel. That was happy ending there, as ride was back to normal.
Though, after month or so what I realize CX-9 ride is very bumpy even on low speed on very nicely paved roads. At times, it almost feels like I�m driving off roads. I�m able to feel almost every bump on the road and vibrations are felt across all seats. If roads are in bad shape, it is even worst.
I�m not sure if this is something normal with cx-9 as people have complained about stiff ride or it has to do with the fact that even tires look pretty much cleaned after removing tar, it is no longer in optimal condition which makes over all journey unpleasant?
If you have to recommend, one good all weather tire for cx9 T, which one that would be? I leave in NJ so not looking for winter tires. I�m just looking for comfortable ride where I do not feel even smaller unevenness of roads.
Thank you!
