    2018 CX-5 Android head unit installed

    Hi there. Very interesting find. I also looked at Belsee brand for these aftermarket units and they don't have any way to access the factory screens or settings. Are you able to mirror and have access to factory radio screens or how are you accessing all the car settings? Your link to amazon...

    2022 CX-5 Infotainment Buttons Not Working Properly

    it's a Infotainment Ghost issue. Mazda replaced my 2018 AND 2019 Cx5 infotainments. No actual recall but MazdaUSA acknowledged there is an issue and got in touch with my local Mazda Dealer (slimeball) and arranged for the dealer to replace both FREE of charge!! Most importantly, they...

    2016 CX-5 Infotainment buttons glitching

    Search the site for ghost touch or something similar, there's posts detailing how to do it. It's not as easy as selecting options in one of the menus. I think you have to remove radio and cut or jumper a wire or two. If you can't do it you can probably find a radio shop to do it. Lot cheaper...

    Be glad you have a CX-5

    ...monitoring, no speed controls, no google/alexa and little else that distracts from pure driving and enjoying it. I most certainly don't want more techy junk. I have had to disable screen touch because my 8-year old car has the ghost touch and a replacement is $1300 + installation (at least...

    Be glad you have a CX-5

    ...less than $250. It was the whole screen and exterior shell, none of the electronics like the circuit board the screen plugs into. Does the first gen not have a cost effective kit like the second gen? Sorry, don’t want to get off topic but had to address ghost touch, it’s really annoying for sure

    Class Action Spider Cracking Suit?

    I believe the class action suit is for the ghost touch issue. There is a separate Special Service Program (SSPB9) for the spider cracking that extends the warranty on the display. Here is a copy of the letter that was mailed out to affected owners...

    Problem with touch screen (2023 CX-5)

    My theory is that they disabled it to prevent the Ghost Touch problem. My 2019 needed the fix and they covered it although my warranty was beyond 3 years. Since the 2024 now has it, I am guessing they fixed the root cause.

    2018 CX-5 Android head unit installed

    I used the ASURE Android head unit from Amazon. The exact one I purchased isnt on there anymore, but there's similar options. It doesn't have stock software, but it has an app that allows you all the car functions from the stock radio (though a bit different, it's just a list of all the settings...
