Good information to know. Thank you.

2016 CX5 GT 140,000 miles - belt tensioner. Other than that it has been completely reliable. 2023 CX5 Turbo- 5,900 miles. No issues nor should it have any at this point.

We've had a 2014 - got totaled in an accident but we were fine. 2016 GT- only issue ever was the belt tensioner. My son still drives it with zero issues and 140K miles now. It still drives great too. Finally, we have a 2023 Turbo but with only 5,700 miles it's still pretty much brand new...

Also the belt tensioner.

Also, remove the filter and cut it open.

Sure sounds like a rod bearing. Happened to my kids old E36 BMW when the chain guide disintegrated and clogged the oil pump inlet filter. We had metal shavings all through the engine. I would advise not to start it at all. Have it towed in. Maybe you'll get lucky and the damage will be limited.

For me I wish our 2023 Turbo and all models went back to the touchscreen. On our old 2016 Gt I enabled it.

Agree 100%. Also there is no such thing as lifetime fluid. Given the type of miles I would change the tranny fluid. When we had our 2016 I did it every 50K. At the 100K mark I dropped the pan and changed the tranny filter too. My son now has the car with 135K miles on it and it still runs, looks...

Have the DWs 06 Continental's on our 2022 Nissan Rouge. They are a giant upgrade over the oem Falken's. So far have only had them on for 9,000 miles and they grip well, are great in rain and dry weather plus they are quiet. No idea about snow since we don't get any in Houston.

None. What I wish it had was wireless android and apple car play. In the past we've had a 2014 Touring. That car got totaled due to someone cutting in front of us. 2016 GT. Sold that to our oldest son. Has 130K miles and still drives great. Only issue was belt tensioner which was a known...

I'm very happy with the oem tray in ours. Fits like a glove. Also the oem rubber foot mats are great too.

I just put Conti DWS06 Plus tires on my new company car. Nissan Rouge. BIG improvement over the stock Falkens. When our 2023 CX-5 Turbo needs it's first set right now I'm leaning towards the DWS06 Pluses again too.

If you wander too close to the line our shows the orange steering wheel too on our 2023 Turbo.

Our 2023 Turbo has 1500 miles. According to the gauge on the car we are averaging 24.4 mpg. Our old 2016 FWD Grand Touring averaged 28.4 for my wife driving to school and back. More than likely the AWD, being a new car at least the first few hundred miles, a small weight difference and the...

I bought our 2023 CX5 Turbo in November. Paid MSRP less $500 for loyalty discount. No dealer mark ups. I think for sure the prices have dropped in the 60 days since then.
