Known PROBLEMS with CX5s?
- Thread starter shiner26
- Start date
- :
- CX5 Akera 2.2 Diesel
The Earlier Honda CVTs were so bad they even had their own name.
Out here, the Honda Fit is called the Jazz.
Hence we had the infamous Jazz Judder..... wifes car had the transmission pulled out and a major component (secondary clutch I think it was ) replaced. Twice...
Frootloop has probably been out un the sun too long and his brain fermented.

What does Honda have to do with this thread? And BTW did you even read the thread? It's basically a bunch of talk regarding the CVT. There isn't a single member in that thread that has had their transmission replaced. Secondly regarding the CarandDriver article, sure there were problems but did you miss the part where Honda issued a recall? It was a known issue, and Honda took responsibility for it and corrected the problems at no charge to the customer(which BTW only involved updating the transmission software, not replacing it), while Mazda says 'your s*** out of luck, that'll be 5k please'.(lol2)
And posting a link discussing faulty Honda transmissions from almost 20 years ago, yeah dude cause that's really relevant in 2017...
To sum it up OP, the CX-5 is a decent SUV, just stay away from the 2016 models they seem to be ticking time bombs...

bull s*** !!! Go away you f'ing a'hole.
You have got to be kidding me, right?
You are such a joker fruitman.
379 posts on a Mazda forum from an avowed Honda fan boy, and you have the balls to ask me what Honda has to do with this thread?
Wow, just wow.
How many times do you have to be told to F off before you get the hint?

I agree with the above. Also, I'm 6'5" and fit just fine. No paint issues, no rattles, no problems at all in 37,000 miles.
For the OP if he is still around, what you have listed are not problems or issues but personal preferences. Each car you shop will have its pros and cons. That’s why you shop around and sit in them and eventually test drive the finalists. Pick the car that’s best for you, not what a magazine or internet source tells you to buy.

I agree. Far more important things are currently afoot.
Like, for example, watching the current Ashes Test Match at Adelaide.
Where England are currently 7/199 chasing Australias 354 lead in their second innings, and heading for a big loss!! (rofl)(rofl)
Wooohooo!

What to do with the rest of the afternoon and evening??
Day/night test matches are here to stay. Biggest crowds since the bodyline series in the 1930’s!

I don’t do sport of any kind. The most athletic thing I do is get my backside out of bed in a morning and if you saw that polava you’d realise what I’m talking about. I know that the cricket is a big thing as it seems to dominate the news and if the ozzies have arseholed us then it’s one less day I have to listen to it ;-).
Going back to the OP, he set off on a sticky wicket (see what I did there) by listing his “faults” and referring to the car as a “thing”. It’s as if he’s behind made to buy it at gunpoint when in fact his negative slant just makes me think he should keep walking to another dealer. That way we won’t have to put up with him whining about everything that’s wrong with it.
I'm still on my stock windshield without even a single rock chip repair.

My screen copped a really decent hit with a rock last week, I was sure there would at least be a chip and wouldnt have been surprised to find a star crack, but have searched it all over and I cant find anything.

- RDX Aspec Adv.
-Windshield is predisposed to crack easily.
-Brakes wear out fast.
-Residual value falls like an absolute ROCK.
otherwise, it's a pretty good little car for what it is.
