18" will be a slightly better ride with a taller sidewall than the 19", but you will lose some handling ability in trade. Only you can decide what you are willing to give up.
Well, we have evidence of other manufacturers who have done it and backtracked- see the 26 Subaru Outback which now ditched the huge screen and added physical controls for the everyday things. There isn't a way to make a touchscreen which works like physical controls. You will have to look at...
Other than the big screen, I agree. The screen is a big miss IMHO. I seriously would not buy the car (and didn't wait for it because of the screen and the powertrain). I bought a Telluride a couple of weeks ago. Would have considered a CX-90 if I could have found a Turbo S to look at/drive.
This is something that happens with glass sometimes. It can not be 100% avoided unless they use laminated glass all around (maybe you advocate for this?). If you knock a glass over on a granite countertop it will likely shatter and you may cut your hand on it. Is the manufacturer of the glass...
It seems to be really random IMHO. I had '19 and '21 CX-5s and drove them for a total of 57k miles. Never had an issue. I see this issue on the forum from time to time, but it doesn't seem to be a rampant problem in the CX-5 anyway (otherwise there wouldn't be such long gaps between...
Plus, I would expect to see others popping up here saying, yes, I live in AZ, NV, NM and I had the same issue. There is something off on your car. I felt the same way about the front brakes on my '21. It had a repeated issue with a brake shudder which did not happen on my 19 with smaller front...
Really strange you would have two motors fail in such a short time. I mean, a 2023 car is on its third motor- and the second one was installed less than 6mths ago. I wonder if there is something off in the housing, or somewhere else, that makes the motor go bad. I will be interested to see if...
I don't understand how this would create V6 to I4 swaps. 3.0l is a very common size for a V6. Interesting Mazda chose to go with a 3.3l I6 with this in mind.
Very interesting. So no issues with your front rotors as of yet? I planned to have my rear rotors and pads changed at 30k as my dealer said the pads were almost gone. I bought new rotors and pads and had an indie come to the house to do the job. He said the rear pads still had 50% left, but...
I have seen that message in mine before, but not on a regular basis. All sensors have issues sometimes. You should try a new Honda if you think the Mazda's automatic braking is bad. I had a 16 RDX which slammed on the brakes all the time when I was not close to cars at all. It was very...
