My 2019 CX-9 GT FWD gives me low fob battery warning messages and even though testing the battery shows it's still good it's cheap enough just to put a new one in just to be safe. Just had to do it last week after dismissing earlier warnings.
I've been driving since the mid 70's and owned numerous cars, both domestic and foreign makes, and have never had an oil burner.
With my 2019 CX-9 GT FWD I never check the oil to be honest and would never expect there to be a problem with oil consumption in a 'new' vehicle with only 13K...
I agree, WeatherTech custom floor liners work great. We live on a ranch and it's impossible not to track in dirt, grass, mud, and other junk into the car. Ever since moving here over ten years ago we've been using them in all of our vehicles. When I get a new car I remove the factory carpeted...
I have a 2019 GT FWD with almost 13K miles on it and live in toasty Texas and so far am still on the original battery.
I owned a 1999 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP for 11 years and the battery would die on me without warning every two years like clock work. I got to the point that I just...
My 2019 CX-9 GT clock gradually gains time and never corrects itself and I must reset it manually. GPS works with my NAV system just fine but doesn't seem to have any influence on the clock.
Regarding those corroded valve stem covers; I find that putting some vaseline on the threads prevents the corrosion issue from happening. I prefer metal covers to cheap plastic ones and have used aluminum or stainless steel caps for several years on different cars without any issue using the...
Google Play prompted me to update Android Auto on my Pixel 3 phone recently and I did. Then when I connected the other day to my 2019 CX-9 GT with a USB cable and was playing Amazon Music and using Google Maps I wanted to go back to the Mazda home screen and couldn't get AA to quit. Previously...
My 2019 CX-9 FWD GT has the original battery and it's going strong. I've only got over 5K miles on it and since I'm retired the vehicle will sit for 2 or 3 weeks without being started and it cranks up without hesitation.
I don't see how a 1 year old vehicle should be experiencing this kind of...
So far my 2019 GT with almost 12K miles is doing just fine, but thanks to you folks I'm paying attention.
Regarding forums; they are the first place I visit when seriously considering a new car purchase. I'll lurk on a forum for a specific make and model for a good year before making a...
I have to agree with you, I've got pearl white on my 2019 GT and it is one of the worst OEM touch up paint pens I've ever used. Fortunately I don't have a lot of chips to deal with and they're very tiny so not very obvious. The quality and thickness of the paint applied to vehicles had...
My 2019 CX-9 GT shows the DRSS in the HUD when there is a car in front of me within range of the sensor and if I get closer the car icon turns to amber color. Honestly, I don't pay a lot of attention to it since for the last 48 years I've relied on looking out the windshield at the vehicle in...
It's been my experience the space saver spare 'donuts' lose quite a bit of air over time. If you carry stuff in the back of your vehicle it makes checking and filling the tire inconvenient and easy to overlook. Carrying a small air compressor has been my solution to this issue so I can fill...
I finally had my 2019 CX-9 GT into the dealer two weeks ago and asked them to look at the mirrors. They couldn't see any signs of water leaking into the folding mechanism and of course they didn't misbehave during the service visit.
This morning I went out to the car which was unlocked since...
Thanks Glaucus; you're right I don't have a block heater. Thanks for the link, I'll check it out. The code hasn't returned since I cleared it and now we're back to much warmer weather. I still plan to take it to the dealer and will see if they have any insight.
Here in Texas we're experiencing record breaking cold. I'm retired and don't drive my 2019 CX-9 FWD that often but needed to go out the other day. The car started fine despite the temps in the teens. I got an warning that my fob battery was low and needed replacement soon (I just recently...
My 2019 CX-9 GT came with the nav SD card. I actually like to use onboard navigation rather than screw around plugging my phone in and using Android Auto. That said, sometimes even the updated nav system database doesn't have what I'm looking for and I revert to Google Maps via AA to get where...
