Be Careful Buying Mazda

I recently purchased a 2025 Mazda CX-50 hybrid premium. At first the vehicle looked amazing. However, after a week of owning the vehicle the idle was rough at startup. It was so much that I called dealership. Pretty much a complete run around and dismissive. Then the passenger side door was running against the front fender. It is so bad paint was coming off the door. Long story short, I contacted Mazda Customer Service who pretty much told me they have no power over dealerships. I learned Mazda does NOT stand behind their products and obviously quality control is a major issue. As far as warranty work, good luck with that. Once you buy the vehicle it's yours. So unless you can be 100% sure the car is without defects don't boy. I thought because it had a Toyota engine in it that it would be good. In the end, I'll lose, at minimum, $9,000 trying to get out of this huge mistake.

Bring ear plugs. Road noise bothersome

The good: hybrid getting 39 plus mpg overall. Nice red/black seats. Good looking from front, blah from the back. Corners well. The bad: deafening road noise on highway. We measured at 80 to 85 dcb which is equivalent to a manuf.factory floor. You feel every bump /rut. Steering very heavy. Exhausted after a 45 min. drive. Confusing media tech interface. Very hollow, tinny feel to doors when closing. Will be trading in for a Lexus nx350h. Mileage up to 41.3 after 2500 miles. In shop once for a recall on the hybrid system software. Still very noisy on the interstate, but drives more quietly on smooth roads at 45mph. Definitely test drive on a highway if a quiet cabin is an important feature to you.

This is my first hybrid so it’s going to take a bit to get used to! But so far I love it. Has everything I would need technology wise. It’s spacious and comfortable.

This car gets slightly better gas mileage than advertised. I live in the Land of Perpetual Traffic and have put about 1000 miles on the car so far. My total average is 39.1mpg for combined city/hwy driving. This car handles extremely well. The corners at a slow speed are nice and tight, but even taking an offramp at speed doesn't feel like it's throwing you to the wall. I don't find the road noise excessive at all, even on freeways. The stock stereo is pretty weak, so don't expect that to blow you away. The seats are comfortable, with the lumbar support providing more than needed. The console takes some getting used to, but once you do everything makes sense. I even prefer the "Mazda Dial" now over the touchscreen since I don't have to reach all the way up there. Safety features are well programmed and have caught me once or twice not braking hard enough. Ample storage room and ample leg room. Overall, outstanding experience.
