My first post here.

My wife’s 2016 CX-5 just hit 90k miles. Our dealer mechanic will not service the transmission.

Anyone have a mechanic in the Seattle WA area they have taken their CX-5 to for a service?

Due to having a bad back and my job I can’t do this myself. I really need a place where I can drop it off and walk away and they will do everything.

Thanks for any recommendations.

I've been happy with the service at South Tacoma Mazda. If you're just doing something like a drain and fill you can schedule so that you wait in their lounge.

It's pathetic how a Mazda dealer won't service a Mazda....

It's likely that the dealer mechanic simply doesn't want to be liable for any issues after the transmission service, in case something happens to go wrong. I can see them turning people with high mileage away, especially since there is no transmission fluid change interval published in the owner's manual.

I would recommend reaching out to a different local dealer, if possible.
