    Strange behavior after battery died and EPB was on: 2016 CX5

    However - I do have 1 problem.... just like the driver side door can be opened with a key, I strongly feel the trunk should have a similar option - i.e. with a key. As for the electronic parking brake frankly I don't see any option if battery is dead. No one can design an auto release in case...

    Strange behavior after battery died and EPB was on: 2016 CX5

    Yes Yes I'm also thinking along the same lines. But those power packs capable of car jump start are not cheap.

    CX-5 won't fully shut off

    This is 200% correct. If you accidentally leave your gear in non P position and shut down the car (push button) the vehicle is NOT switched off completely. I was new to push button and early 1st month of ownership had twice the battery die on me. I pushed the button down 1st., before moving the...

    Walk-Away Locking.. faulty or normal?

    The walk away feature has NEVER failed me or my wife, EVER. The trick is to keep the batteries in the remote well juiced.

    Strange behavior after battery died and EPB was on: 2016 CX5

    Witnessed a frustrating incident recently. Irked me to no end. BTW: I do love my CX-5 but found the below experience: Unacceptable. Left car in NJ Transit parking lot (as usual) with EPB = ON and left for work (as usual). Return to find out battery died. Why? No idea - could be I left something...

    Question - anyone knows the % for the factory tints @ rear? Are they same for the 2 door and the rear glass or different?

    Mazda friends, need '17 CX-5 ammo to help to sway the wifey who wants Lexus NX200

    OP : Have you tried to "back off" perhaps? In other words, sometimes when the loved ones strongly suggest something or try to sway an opposite happens. Both are very good cars. In terms of 2nd. hand valuation (in case you're looking into it) Lexus perhaps will give a better bang for the buck...

    Mud and Snow inside portion of rear doors...Help

    I'll try to post some photos but this is something bothering me for sometime. If needs to be addressed, have to do it before my warranty runs over. Recently, drove thru a pile of slush, snow, mud, etc. When I open my front doors - either side there's this clear edge. All the mud/slush marks...

    Ceramic car coating

    While this is technically true but reality is very different. My earlier car had dealer applied $900 ceramic coating. It was even warranty for 5 years. However, the catch is - absolutely no automatic car washes. The other type of washes are : costly by thrice the amount. Anyways, I decided to...

    2017~2025 Tire Pressure Sensor for 2017 CX-5 - $91.74 EACH!

    Here's why - I was surprised to find today, in dealership a walk in with a complaint: "I have a new light showing up in dashboard" "Ok" ..... "Your tire pressure is low, Sir" .......... "That'll be $20. Have a nice day. We had to reset the pressure for you. Also, you might want to avail the...

    2017~2025 Tire Pressure Sensor for 2017 CX-5 - $91.74 EACH!

    I agree with YRW here. Due to following reasons: From 2017 onwards, Mazda could have easily done a better job as they introduced dedicated sensors per tire but I guess lazy to implement it. I am pretty sure if a good OBD scanner is introduced into the system it'll show these sensors are...

    For those complaining about our infotainment system

I am part of a team who's trying to utilize certain aspects of AI/Machine Learning in combination with CA company - Blackberry for passenger vehicles, specifically QNX. Leaving...
