That if your water pump goes out ,so does your engine,because it leaks into the engine and mixing with oil.Now you need an engine.

All in all this is a solid family hauler. I chose the Touring for the smaller rim size. Handling is very good for its class, but you will feel the bumps. We moved halfway across the country, so I had my wife two kids & two dogs in the car for 1800 miles / 28 hours of driving- the CX9 proved itself to a great car for the trip. I averaged about 24 MPG on that trip. In what I consider true suburban driving I would get about 18MPG. Now I live in a little town on the Jersey shore now and average about 14MGP in city style driving. Power is more than adequate for all but the true enthusiast and or speed demon.

Complicated

I loved my 2010 CX-9 when I bought it for the 1st week after that I wanted to push it off the Talmadge bridge!!!! Lights blowing left and right, A/C went out, Water Pump went out so there was water in the engine so there goes the engine. Now it is idle surging and the A/C will not stay charged. I am over it. I just want a new car.

I have spent thousands of dollars on repairs on this car. It is the most unreliable car I’ve ever owned. The extras are great- I love the heated seats and moonroof. The back up camera is so dark that there are many times it’s not usable. There are LOTS of blind spots while driving. My repair shop knows me by name because of this car. I would steer clear if you can.

2010 CX-9 GT AWD

Most of these reviews are glowing so I'll just list the faults. Brushed faux aluminum on the inside of the door scratches easily and looks terrible. Plastic coating on the floor runners that the rear seats slide forward/backward on scratch, peel and flake after a few months and look terrible (although still function fine). Getting to the fade function on the stereo is way too difficult (requires 3 different button pushes to change, not intuitive either). Also we have water entering into the passenger floor area beneath the dash when cornering to the left. After some online research this appears to be due to a clogged sunroof and evaporator line from the AC. Pending resolution...
