Last week I purchased the CX-5 Signature. Very impressed by the vehicle after a 10 minute test drive, took it home. A couple days later I had a 1.5 hour drive. I am so disappointed with the extra firm bolsters of the front seat. Ive tried every adjustment to make them bearable, to no avail. I am a bit larger, at 510 and 220#. My thighs and legs are killing me after any more than 20 minutes in the seat. Dealer said a seat custom shop might help, so Im taking it in tomorrow to see if they can remove some bolster, or replace with a softer foam. They told me it depends upon the airbags, etc.
Am I alone in this issue?
Ive owned 20+ new cars, everything from A Mazda B2000 and MX5, to Mercedes, BMWs, Infinity, Toyota, Lexus, Honda, Ford Trucks, and many others. Ive never had this seat issue. I may need to trade a 2 week old MX-5 with 1000 miles if the seats cant be made more comfortable. I hate that thought, as I really like the overall CX-5 package.
