It’s possibly a FWD with bad all season tires and maybe TCS button off...

If you are backing up a new or uninserted SD card to the Nav slot, I believe you can’t back it up using Mazda toolbox on the computer. The card has to be inserted first and car driven for few kms in order for the card to lock in with the vehicle. After which you can only back it up...the...

You can still claim the SD card with them as that should’ve come standard with your purchase. Since you already bought via eBay then you can ask them to maybe exchange the cost of the SD card for a different accessory (worth $400-500?)...

Actually, after doing a little bit of digging up, 2021 GTs in USA includes the Nav...screenshot of their press kit from Mazda USA. It is likely the dealer forgot to insert the SD card in the slot during PDI. I would go after that for sure with dealer as it’s almost a $500 cost that’s supposed...

Here in Cda the 2021 CX-9 GT includes the Nav...see screenshot of the spec sheet

Esp during winter try to top up the gas tank and maintain at least half to full tank to avoid condensation. Leaving it at or below quarter of a tank all the time while not being driven much could spell trouble...

I’ve always used Nokian WRG3 or WRG4 All-weather tires...these are exclusive to Kal Tire in Canada hence why you get those added perks of free lifetime repairs, balancing & rotation. Nokian is based in Finland and they invented the winter tires and have factories in other countries like Russia...

I use a timer for the block heater...it only takes 2 hrs for engine block to be at optimal temp so I leave at 730am and my timer for block heater turns on at 530am therefore not wasting as much electricity even when left plugged in over night...

Yup this is correct!

Happened to my CX-9 last month...sitting in garage for a while driven only once a week on short trips and with extreme cold weather we’ve had the battery died. Had to plug my battery booster/charger for 20mins to get car started! Once I got to work, left the charger plugged in to charge...

The factory OEM all season tires are usually not good on snow/ice/slush roads as well as the tread wear life as manufacturers prioritize cost, fuel economy, comfort & quietness. Whenever I buy new vehicles, because of where I live (extreme cold climate in winter), I always upgrade to...

Agreed...Volvo has a nice sound system I owned an XC60 for 7yrs and that model only had 8 speakers and was just the base system not even the upgraded more expensive Dynaudio but it sounded amazing compared to the audio system I tried when I cross shopped the Lexus RX-350...

You do know that you can disable that auto lock parking brake in the Mazda 3 right? There’s a procedure on how to disengage it found in the manual...

Doesn’t hurt to ask the finance Mngr at dealership prior to signing docs like these and even if they explain it properly, ask them where it states in the document so you’re clear. Sometimes they try to get away with those fine prints...coz once you sign the dotted line, that’s it you’re on the...

By the looks of it, it’s only $75 penalty plus any finance charge earned or “interest” say if you paid the balance in full after 30 days then you pay the interest for the 30-day period plus the $75. That’s not bad at all...

Agreed likely a firmware issue...If it still is under warranty then it shouldn’t cost you anything if they do the update for you.

I have a 2017 Signature and no issues...never updated the firmware ever since I picked up vehicle from dealership. I do experience intermittent issues (screen blank) from time to time but very very rare and usually rebooting it solves the issue (turning car off then on again).

Unfortunately there isn’t any indicator on the dash...Even my 2017 MY doesn’t have one.
