I don't understand why people want the CX-5 bigger when essentially the bigger CX-5 is the CX-9. And now there is the CX-50. Like holy jeez people.

Doesn't Mazda have something bigger....the CX-9? Or are we overlapping now? I think the CX-5 is just fine the size it is.

This sounds exactly like my battery issue when my battery died on me. Something appears to be draining your battery.

I can't remember how much mine to replace was, I had it done at the dealer. Twas expensive. Over $200cdn for sure. https://mazdas247.com/forum/t/2017-cx-5-died-on-the-highway.123878783/page-2

This is kinda like the meme about Ferrari spending millions to develop a CX-30.

That's all I can do. They replaced the battery and checked that the system is charging (and it is). I can't ask them to do more than that if the alternator is intermittently going bad.

Well, the vehicle seems to be running ok. I asked if they checked the charging system (AVR) test and they said the alternator seems to be charging. We drove it home yesterday and it didn't stop, and it started ok this morning and my wife hasn't called to say the car is dead so, there is the...

From my limited knowledge of these things, it seems to me that if a battery fails, it triggers something in the system and just shuts the car down to prevent further damage to the system. I mean, it was -38 with the windchill so it is possible a cell reversed polarity or some other such thing. I...

Turns out it's just the battery. I presume they did some other system checks as well. At least I hope so. I'm going to ask if they checked everything else. The SA said that they tested the system to determine that the battery was pooched so hopefully it checks the charging system as well.

The dealer called and said the battery was pooched. They're going to replace it and then continue testing and hopefully it's just the battery.

Would you not get a battery light first or some sort of indication that the battery is not charging?

So, on Sunday my wife and I were on the highway when our truck "died suddenly". There was a light that was the key with the explanation point that was flashing. Then when it stopped We got the car with the lock symbol flashing light. It's at the dealer now. I'll keep you all posted. I'm hoping...

My wife got into an accident similar to this one. She got hit. Airbags deployed and they didn't total the vehicle. Almost 18k in damage and they fixed it.

I know I'm going to be going to a reputable garage for my brakes rather than the dealer. My rears were about $600 for new pads and rotors. eff that.

Is there a TSB we can quote for the dealer to check or repair. What can the average person do in the meantime?

So, for the laymen here...what can we do if anything to fix this problem? Is there a certain TSB we can ask for at the dealer or some other fix?

This is why I love the internet.

FWIW, I bent the little tab under the battery up a little bit and I haven't had a problem since.
