    2016~2023 USB in Front Console

    The head mechanic at the dealership told me it’s important to use an Apple brand cable for any usb connections with Apple products. My iPod (that I keep music on) kept freezing up during loading. After changing to an Apple cable there are no more issues. 👍🏻 I realize this is more $$ but it may...

    Poll Did you choose the CX-9 over a European SUV?

    I test drove an X3, MDX, Q5, Touareg, XC60, Ford Edge, Sorento, RX 350 and others. I almost bought the X3. A big part of why I chose the CX-9 is because it’s manufactured in Japan and whether or not this is true, I equate that with dependability. This goes back to the 1970’s when my dad bought...

    2019 Cargo Cover

    If memory serves me right, there’s only one way to get it in. It may be in the manual, I’ll have to check. I know this... last time I tried getting it in there, it was a PITA.

    Getting it in and out of the indented area is the biggest pain.

    2019 Cargo Cover

    While I’d have to go into the cargo area of the CX-9 to refresh my memory, I find storing the cover under the cargo area a pain. If anyone knows the proper steps to remove and replace the cargo cover please post. (If memory serves me right, this may be in a thread somewhere) Thanks!

    CX-9 Driver Visibility

    Driver visibility in the 2018 CX-9 sucks. This became apparent after driving a VW Touareg. To get maximum leg extension the CX-9 seat must sit low. If you raise it, it moves forward at the same time (?) lessening the leg room. Does anyone else feel too low? I see other CX-9 drivers and some...

    2019 Infotainment system Lockups

    The OS of infotainment system in the 2018 CX-9 is not stable. That or I have a hardware issue. When I press for “screen off,” the top nav header and clock stay on the screen while the rest is dark. In addition, the nav header becomes frozen on the last street it passed. Some mornings, it takes...

    2017 CX-9 rear bumper chrome trim replacement

    FYI, you should get a front trim piece in the same box. Its considered an accessory so all items are included. I had a rear bumper repair. The body shop ordered my trim piece almost two weeks ago and its still not in. They are going to do the install and said it only takes a few minutes. I may...

    CX-9 Parts availability

    I understand the having to really push them to take the next step... In a much broader sense, this seems to be THE way of dealing with cable, cellphone, insurance companies and others. In many cases, you have to fight for what youre required to get or more often, what youre told they will do...

    CX-9 Parts availability

    The part on back order is a thin, fake chrome strip that goes around the rear bumper. Its considered an accessory as theres a front bumper piece that comes in the same box. I just picked the car up today and I gotta say, I kinda like the way it looks without it. I may decide to leave it off...

    CX-9 Parts availability

    Not sure about the rest of the car but there are aftermarket rear bumper covers out there. Im now aware of the optional OEM coverage as my insurer conveniently told me it was available... AFTER the collision.

    CX-9 Parts availability

    An uninsured motorist backed into the CX-9. Its in the shop for repair; Im out of 200 bucks for the deductible and in a rental for three days. I had to really bargain hard for all OEM parts but I got it. A rare occurrence indeed. I picked a 33 year locally owned shop... great staff with great...

    Anybody have this issue?

    Thanks for all the input. First, Ill try the fuel additive to clean out the system. After that, If I have another episode, Ill ask the dealership to run the codes. I use only non-ethanol fuel, 90-93 octane at a Pure brand station. This could be the source of the issue. Ill be checking...
