    2021 CX-5 hesitation/back and forth feeling

    I got the car back and the PCM update definitely did some magic. Drove more than 30 mins combine city and freeway. Now I can feel the car run smoother than b4. At least I don't feel the jerk or hesitation.

    I am having the same issue with my 19 CX-5 GT. I dropped my car off the service for the TSB fix. Hope they can get this fix for me, super annoying with the jerk feeling.
