Ditto on the add-ons like Black lug nuts and Black wheel locks for $225.00. No Thanks, hate the locks and crome lugs are fine.

You can go in and reset the light. I don't go by the light. Track it myself. They probably set it for 3,000 miles so it's giving you advance warning. You're good for 5,000, maybe even 7,500 depending on how you drive. Just make sure it gets changed once a year at least.

All the time and trouble on this, why didn't you just buy OEM?

2016 with the original battery - must be a record. 99% sure your problems are the battery. Go buy one, make sure you can return if it doesn't fix the problem. And yes, bad battery can cause all kinds of dash problems.

Replacing my 19, keeping my 16. Dealer looked like they had a decent supply on the lot. A lot more than the last time I was there (about 5 months ago). I talked to a sales guy, got some literature, no sales pressure. Powertrain warranty runs out in 4 months.

Sounds like a bad battery. Did the car start OK after you removed the battery for 1 hour? What year is vehicle, how old is battery, etc. It's helps diagnosis if this info is offered.

Should I expect to be able to negotiate? MSRP is $37,800, not including destination, tax and tags.

Search this forum. Posts about ghost infotainment or something similar. I think there was a TSB for the problem but probably won't help you since you're out of warranty.

For 2016 CX-5, the major issue is the rear disk brake calipers with EPB. Have owned a 16 Touring since Apr 2015 and have not had any problems with the rear calipers.

Look in one of the infotainment screens. There's a setting somewhere for volume. I had the same problem with Nav and I found a setting that controlled the volume. Probably one similar or same for external music sources. Also try the volume knob on the center console.

Did you get service records? Is it AWD? If so rear diff fluid, transfer case fluid. I haven't seen any problems on this forum related to water pumps or thermostats and I've been here close to 10 years. It doesn't seem to be a Mazda problem. If the hoses are in good shape I wouldn't replace...

How many miles on it when you took possesion?

Yes to what Conrad said. I have a 16 Touring (no sensors in the wheels) as well as a 19 GTR which I believe does have the sensors in each wheel although it still doesn't tell you which one is low.

I thought Mazda's came in through California then were shipped by rail across country. That's how Honda did it with their Japanese made vehicles.

I like the Pirelli Scorpions. Put them on my 16 Touring. Good ride, good handling and after 20k they still have mucho tread.
