    Here is the section of the manual on flat tires. Agreed it is a pain to find: https://www.mazda.ca/en/digital-owners-manual/2024/cx-90-phev/contents/68080200.html

    Middle Row Seat Question

    Not really sure it’s purposes. Like you said, it looks like it is redundant with the lever on top of the seat back.

    Middle Row Seat Question

    Here is the info from the manual for your 2022: i believe yours is the version with the (switch). Entering/exiting the third-row seat area with child-restraint system installed (Right-side seat only) Access to the third-row seats is possible even when a child-restraint system is installed to...

    Middle Row Seat Question

    The seats in my 2018 are different (not power operated), but I have a theory. The button you are pressing on the side is the third row seat access button, it tilts the back rest forward and slide the seat forward. It is not meant to make the seat flat. On my 2018 the passenger side seat acts...

    New 2024 CX-90 PHEV is officially a lemon. Researching what to do next

    You should read the warranty carefully and fight that. I have never seen anywhere that there was a limited amount of transfers for the warranty. Your local laws may also help there. Honestly based on your experience with the previous dealer that didn’t want to touch it anymore, i don’t think...

    Mike's 2018 CX-9 Signature

    Car and driver did a good review of them here: What I liked in the review is that it is the first time that i see a review that compares all-weather tire to dedicated summer tire and dedicated winter tires (scroll to the end of the review). Because they are often the best in reviews in their...

    What does 2021.5 model year mean?

    All info above is correct. 2021.5 was only in Canada. In short, the US got the new screen and new infotainment in 2021, but Canada didn’t. 6 months later they rolled out the 2021.5 in Canada, which brought the new screen and infotainment system from the US 2021 model. 2021.5 is a Canadian...

    2016 -> 2020 CX-9 Retrofit

    Squarer i guess. It seems like the base is the same width and the extra screen space is on the top. But if you like it, definitely go for it.

    2016 -> 2020 CX-9 Retrofit

    If you stay with the same infotainment versions I dont know if anyone has done it with the CX-9, but on the Miata it has been done to install the version with wireless apple carplay. https://forum.miata.net/vb/showthread.php?t=739206&page=4 The Canadian 2021 is the only CX-9 that came with the...

    Small wraps for paint chips

    If you have already painted over the chip then I dont think wrapping it will slow down rusting. The new rusting on area that touch up has been applied typically comes from under the touch up paint where the metal has previously been exposed. Wrap on car prevents paints chip from happening, but...

    Stuck in ACC mode?

    To me it would make sense that it would be the shifter. The way the shifter and push button works is that if you turn off the car while in Drive, the engine shuts down but stays in ACC mode. If you are in park, then engine and the car shuts off. So if the car doesn’t know you are in park, it...

    New CX-5 pulls to the right even though alignment is good

    You should bring it back to the dealer and have them test drive it. If they say it is normal you can ask them to take a drive in a another cx-5 to compare. Get them to decide to do another alignment or to suggest a solution. That way you won’t be stuck with the bill. Ho see them and just say...

    New CX-5 pulls to the right even though alignment is good

    It might just be the slope of the road. Most road slopes to the right for water drainage. Some cars are more sensitive to it than others. Try it on the left lane of a divided highway or in a long parking lot and see if it still pulls to the right. Other reasons the car could pull to one side...
