I thought that new tires and an alignment etc would make it go away but it didnt. Different tires (not OEM) - same issue, so it's not the tires. Tire pressure is at spec btw
When driving my 2009 CX-9 Sport - I often experience the sensation of driving over rumble strips when driving at low speeds (28 - 32mph). This usually happens within the first few miles of a trip - it doesn't seem to happen after I have driven for 10 miles or so. Any thoughts?
Could this...
She's back in the shop...Again
This time - the power steering system is making a loud whirrrrrring noise every time i turn the wheel. This car is a Lemon !!!!!!!!!!!
More to come on this I'm sure....:mad:
Finally did take it back and they fixed the Steering Wheel mis-alignment. Drove the car down to Virginia for a business trip.....the Air Conditioner doesnt work(pissed)
Finally picked it up tonight after they fixed the vibration - I was right, it was something related to the exhaust system. It seems to be ok now except for the fact the steering wheel is off center - in order to go straight (12 O'clock) it needs to be pointed at 1:00 O'Clock ???? WTH ....I...
OK - I finally got to pick-up my CX-9 this evening after 6 weeks in the shop!!!(headbang)

I asked them to check on the smell of coolant that I noticed on occasion so i was the one that noticed an issue - it was not leaving any puddles and the temp was ok.
This car has been dreadful
First - the remote start circuit blew-out after 2 months. The the antenna detached after going over a bump, took it in to be fixed - it wasnt - had to take it back in.
Then at 30K the water pump went bad.(hand)
When the tech replaced it he broke a small vacum tube...
Go for it
I am in a similar situation as you. My company car is a CX9 and I LOVE THIS CAR. When the company lease is up - I plan to buy it. It is the most comfortable, smoothest, and best handling car I have ever drove - and its darn sexy too ! ;)
