Turbo CX-5 Coolant Issue questions

[kone]

Got our letter yesterday. A little bummed about this. We also own a 21 CX9 w the same motor and tbh we love the cars and Mazdas in general. A few general ? someone here might have answers or input on...

I'm assuming the newer 2.5T aren't showing proclivity for this issue? My 21 CX9 is probably ok?

I am currently window shopping a new CX30 and would've gotten the turbo, should I move off that now? Have to assume CX5 values take at least a small hit?

Is there any extra maintenance recommended to lessen the chance this issue come up? Other than watch for puddles?

Thanks!

I received the letter the other day but it was for coolant leaking and cracked head. Did you receive a letter for oil consumption?

my 2023 has not burned any oil between changes in 32000 miles.

Mazda believes they have fixed the issue with the 2021 model and up. There was a redesigned cylinder head i believe. Time will tell. But in my own observations the quantity of cracked head reported here in the forum has reduced significantly since about a year or two.

Also most 2021 are still under the current powertrain warranty, it is possible that they might get added to the extended warranty at a later date.

You're right. I was wondering myself where all the cracked heads disappeared to.
