Trade a Honda CRV ( which was noisy and feel every bump on the road) on this CX5 is the best thing ever I’ve done. Very happy with with the CX5 . No problems

No idea how this car rated so high and we made a buying decision based on reviews like Edmunds and Car and Driver. Gas mileage isn’t as good as our 2013Nissan. Might have to get out and push if we ever take it to the mountains. Leather seats show EVERY fingerprint. And the MOST uncomfortable seats that I have ever set in. No idea what the material covering the dashboard is but you can’t just wipe it off. Technology is very hard to use and manual is confusing. No touch screen-must use the dial and go through many options to make a selection-dangerous while driving. No remote start on the key fob but only in a phone app which I will have to pay a monthly fee for after 4 years AFTER I already paid for remote start on the sticker price!!! I have it set to automatically lock when I walk away. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. Car play isn’t wireless and the USB is in the console instead of in the tray where I could lay my phone. HATE the 6 speed as you really feel it every time the gears change especially when it’s struggling to go uphill. Wish I had my 2013 Nissan back with CVT which I loved. I could go on with things that I don’t like but will stop here.Will not be keeping it for 4 years. Worst car buying decision of my 50 years of buying cars!!
