Instead of turning vehicle on/off to perform a reboot of the infotainment unit, you can simply press the 3 buttons at same time: back+nav+mute...this way it'll perform a reboot without turning vehicle on/off. I've done this a few times and seemed to work every time the back up camera or screen...

Customers have been complaining about the 6 in terms of lacking HP/torque in order to compete with the Camrys and Accords to gain more sales...Mazda adds the 2.5T as an option in the higher trims yet still some complaints it doesn't deliver the power the way they want it. They update the...

well said bro...well said! I guess I have been lucky so far as my 2017 Signature hasn't broken down on me yet (knock on wood) and has been reliable for the past 16mos of ownership. Time will tell but seems these electronic issues could be happening in the 2018 MYs...

Some manufacturers are like that (ex. Toyota/Lexus) where you just slide your hand/fingers on the door handle and it unlocks but Mazda and other manufacturers like Hyundai are push button. I personally have no issues with it so why Mazda did it that way I don't know but not every glove fits all...

Yup...wishful thinking...but there was a thread that was similar that got out of hand and guess what? Moderator stepped in and shut the thread down! Try to keep the discussion as relevant as possible is all I was asking for as this thread could soon face the same fate!

Wow...this thread has suddenly become a debate/gripe session! Just like a few months ago caused by certain individuals that went off-topic and started with debates that turned into attacks...unfortunately this type of discussion just turns me off and probably some other people. I know we're all...

As for the glossy black trims by the door these swirl marks are common as acrylic easily scratches...why Mazda and a lot of manufacturers use them I don't know. The swirl marks can easily be buffed up using car wax and will look glossy again but the swirl marks won't go away completely but less...

This smell is normal for brand new vehicles as they apparently coat the engine with a wax to protect it during shipping (while in the boat on sea for a month or two). It burns off after driving it for a week or so...

Agree with this...Mazda corp will likely say that their vehicles newly produced are subjected to careful and routine inspection and quality control. If indeed there was damage caused during transit delivery to dealership (highly doubt it) then dealer should've noticed that as they also take...

All I can say is the CX9's LKAS and LDW is not intrusive as some other systems. Drivers complain when these types of system are intrusive while others complain when it is not. I think Mazda designed it on the safer side. Unfortunately manufacturers can't find the proper balance that will suit...

While this maybe true, however due to the weaker demand here in Cda the dealerships don't usually have much inventory therefore less wiggle room and negotiation to lower the price...I've noticed over the years that dealerships here are less likely to give in to demands with lesser competition...

Come to think of it...yeah he hasn't been around posting as of late. Maybe mod disabled his account/blocked it or worse banned him...he was one of those that got into a back and forth with 2 other posters that became personal with all the attacks/insults etc.

Ouch! That'll be expensive assuming replacement of the grille since the Signature has that integrated LED lighting at lower front grille...not much of any help here as I don't have any experience replacing/repairing it but I would inquire with the parts website for Mazda accessories at least...

Have had mine (MY2017) for 13 months now and the infotainment system has gone blank or rebooted only a few times...usually rebooting the system does help (turning off vehicle and restarting it)...in cases where you are driving and cannot turn ignition off, then perform a hard reboot on the...

Totally agree with this statement! How much more do we need to be on our smartphones? when not driving most of us on it...and while driving must still be on it? I value safety more...I actually have AA in my work vehicle ('17 Escape SE) and honestly I rarely ever use AA as vehicle already has...

When I took delivery of my brand new '17 Sig trim same issue with 45psi tires which I was surprised as the PDI should've adjusted that! Unfortunately only noticed it 3wks after as I found ride to be firm (but no noise heard on suspension). I already noticed that the Falkens weren't good in...

Agree...the Falkens OEM don't do well in snow and ice that's why I replaced them last year with Nokian all-weather tires. This winter so far they've performed very well for us...way better than the Falkens for sure!

Not baiting you into anything but rather just making a suggestion that isn't biased but based from proven real driving experience. and yes am aware AWD does nothing when stopping so no need to lecture me on that...in case you didn't notice i said when going/moving. The stopping i mentioned...

In your area then maybe having AWD will be more beneficial esp when going and having winter tires during this season...also helps when stopping on ice/snow.

14 yrs ago I had a Toyota vehicle without ABS and stability control...I had a few instances back then where vehicle spun around and lost control. Fast forward and modern vehicles pretty much have these safety systems as standard and boy do they really help when you need them and if used...
