Decent car, horrible gas milage

Car is OK, fun to drive. It gets horrible gas milage, around 19 mpg vs. the 26 mpg Mazada claims. I've had problems with the electrical system.

2.5L Turbo Burns oil

Loved our CX-9 until it started burning a quart of oil between oil changes. No leaks just burning oil. Dealer won’t acknowledge there is a service bulletin saying Mazda doesn’t have a fix. Had to trade it out once it started misfiring and violent shaking when driving (probably due to oil entering combustion and affecting spark plugs). Beware of Mazda not acknowledging the problem.

Exceeded expectations

I researched a lot of SUV vehicles in a variety of classes and settled on the Mazda CX-9. I wasn’t interested in spending big $ on a luxury class status symbol, but wanted a classy, sporty, practical vehicle with some get up and go. I knew that Mazda pushed the luxury envelope without the price premium. The Mazda met all those requirements. Our vehicle exceeded our expectations in every way. We drove 100 miles to Ocean Mazda in Miami to buy the car ($6000 savings vs local dealer), and rented a BMW X2 to get there (Hertz upgraded us because they were short of vehicles). On our drive home in the CX9 we realized that the performance, comfort, and features of our CX9 exceeded the BMW, even though I took it easy on the throttle for engine break-in. We’re only about 400 miles into our Mazda experience, but we love our new vehicle.

2023 CX9 Touring Plus

Had a 2008 Mazda CX9 and after 15 years I bought a slightly used (6200 miles) 2023 CX9 Touring Plus. Funny thing is the price for the new one all in was 40k and the price of the 2008 Grand Touring was 40k when I bought it new. I like the clean looking interior, ventilated leather seats and the touring plus with the black wheels looks great. Drives nice, quiet and handles well. Doesn't get great gas mileage at about 16-18mpg around town. I'm not easy on the accelerator but I don't drive that many miles so not a deal breaker. The engine sounds a little buzzy and not liking no touchscreen. I don't care about the third row as I keep them down all the time and use the extra room for hauling equipment, mulch and other supplies. It's just the right amount of space for me. Was trying to hold out for the CX70 but my old CX9 wasn't cooperating and the new CX90 was more money. Probably keep this for a couple of years and see how the CX70 fairs.

Very comfortable and peppy. I am getting almost 30mpg on daily commute. That being sad though, we did only get 21mpg on a long road trip but we had a big rooftop brick full of luggage. After removal of the vacation brick fuel economy returned….. Zoom Zoom
