I had my 2019 cx5 sport in for inspection at mazda dealer and they said I needed a brake flush = cost $214 ....... wow....... I said let me think about it.

no, I didn't pursue it further, since several said no it doesn't lock.. but now the last 2 replies above saying it did/does lock ! I thought it locked, then one day it didn't and still doesn't .. no error codes or clicks.. It's hard to turn when off , but I can turn the steering wheel about...

I've had this issue....... when cx5 was new.... complained here and at mazda dealer.... they showed me how to check it, when you push the dipstick in , pull it out real quick, don't let it sit.. works for me , most of the time, hot or cold engine. hope it helps

ok, thank you for replies , guess I haven't driven it enough to remember if it locked or not ... guess it doesn't ...

so can anyone confirm when you shut off cx5 the steering wheel locks into place ? with a click ? or have I driven to many other vehicles that I'm confused and that is not a feature on cx5. thank you...

When I shut off vehicle today, the steering column didn't lock in place... no click either.... took it to local dealer, they said they can't look at it till monday.... service worker said it'll be 1 to 3 hours to troubleshoot ! he said no problem driving it like this ... It's not the fob...

well, the battery levels were low ! had to put 8oz of distilled water in total for all cells ! Got it filled to high mark as best as I could tell... it was easier to shine light into hole and gauge height of level from top than from the outside... maybe need brighter light..

ok , thanks for the info , I'll get my needle nose, small dropper, distilled h20 and flash light ready for high maintenance project !

thanks for the info in this thread... I didn't realize the battery had to be filled. I'm sure mazda hasn't looked at the battery level either every time I've brought it in for service. I guess these battery caps just pull out ? they don't have threads correct ? I'll try putting a flashlight...

I agree , get a deltran battery tender plus or jr... I leave my mower and motorcycle on them for 4 months without worrying. Been using them for 15 years without problems..

well, I'm reading the letter and it's from my local dealer and has the manager sig on it.. and all local info, plus sent 1st class mail. Maybe your right though, I'm not a expert on marketing , just posting about this offer... that I didn't use.

My letter is from the local dealer... and at the time when I first got the letter on Oct 15 2021, they had 5 brand new 2021 sport cx5s in stock..

I got a similar letter from mazda, I have 2019 cx5 sport with 3,000 miles on it, trade it in for 2021 new sport and pay $3,500 difference... didn't do it, though it was tempting ... had a month to take offer.

so anyone ever use a snow sock on a cx5 ?? I never heard of this type of tire traction .. I've used chains and cables on other vehicles ,but now that I have a cx5 , was just wondering how well they work ... thanks in advance ..

looks nice like that ...

mine is the same as wlong01... usb works , 16 gig fat 32 push mute button , then unmute later and picks up where it was muted ....

Well, washing/waxing my CX-5 the other day, noticed a small dent in the hood. So took it to dent works, the tech there looked at it and said it'll cost $80 to fix. I said when can you do it? He said right now, took him 10 minutes! I can't see where the dent was, so I'm happy...Don't know how I...

Ok, update, went back to dealer, talked to sales lady that sold me the cx5...Told her about the ticking noise and was wondering if she'd let me listen to a new cx5 with hood up. She said no problem. She started up a 2021 sport and I had mine a few feet away...My cx5 was warmed up, the 2021 sport...

hey thejas ... I have the 2019 sport and have complained to dealer and on this forum about the speed being reduced to much when trying to coast or even going down hill. The dealer said they all do that.... , and on this forum , had advice that it was scb or torque converter ... still don't know...

yrwei52 .. is that pressure treated wood ? or just regular pine... I was thinking about buying a set of ramps from amazon for $40.. for next time need to change oil... but those wood ramps look good and 1/3 the price... ( just a bit of labor )
