CX-90 needed more quality control before being rel

Right from picking up my new CX-90 from the dealership the problems began. First it was a radar sensor error code which didn't allow the adaptive cruise or lane centering to work- that required 3 visits to the dealership to get fixed. Now the adaptive cruise works but is pointless as any slight turn in the road the vehicle will slam on the brakes. Transmission started jumping shortly after, no fix available. Steering wheel locks up on the highway requiring you to use force to steer the other way (2 visits to service with no fix), heated seats stopped working, and the list goes on. I ended up returning the lease early as I couldn't fathom the idea of driving it for 3.5 more years. Mazda you can do better. You make great vehicles but why wouldn't you have put more effort and quality control into the CX-90? Unfortunate because it's one of the best looking 3 row SUVs!

Major repair with less than 5K miles

We purchased the CX90 to replace a 2023 CX5 in order to have more room and a better ride. This is our 7th Mazda we have purchased since 2006 and have always enjoyed reliable vehicles. This one is not fitting within that category. When we took the vehicle in for its 5K oil change and a software update, the technician noted a leaking drivers side differential seal. This repair has now taken over 3 weeks and the dealer has informed us that obtaining the parts and special tools to complete the repair could take months. This is not the quality of vehicle or the service of vehicles I have come to expect from Mazda. Mazda Customer Support has been contacted and they are working on a solution.

From Acura MDX to Mazda CX-90 PHEV Premium Plus

My son is a new driver... The family Acura MDX has carried us safely on many adventures for well over 180,000 miles and now it is his safe passage for the future. The “trade-off” is that I have to take on a car payment once again, however, the CX-90 PHEV Prem Plus has not disappointed and has proven to be worth its price tag! We have already taken it on a trip over 500 miles, through rain and snow with no issues aside from the bumper sensors being temporarily blinded by road spray and dirt. The electric ride is smooth, and the sport mode is useful to get around slow moving vehicles on single lane, country roads (of course in safe passing zones). I look forward to driving it for years to come, but am admittedly nervous at the level of technology built into the first year vehicle that could pose long-term concerns - time will tell.

My first year model Mazda CX-90 was a dud!

My 2024 Mazda CX-90 Turbo Preferred was back to the dealers over 20 times in only 3200 miles! It had issues for the major recalls including loss of power steering while we were on a trip. I had to deal with this steering for over 425 miles until we returned home. It had --2-- new 12V starter batteries replaced (a 3rd new battery was installed) until Mazda finally figured out all of the batteries had been undercharging due to buggy software. That issue included a dead battery (#2) only 2 weeks after it was installed and right in my driveway one morning. The low battery (and loud) alerts continued to show up far too many times even after that issue was finally resolved. Other issues were defective rear radar sensors and what seemed like an odd AWD sensation where it just would not seem to hold the grade of road smoothly without a lot of minor steering wheel correction left and right. This was more pronounced at highway speeds. (the gas only AWD I have now tracks perfectly on all road grades, unlike my CX-90 did). The list goes on. Well, at 3500 miles on the ODO I finally had enough and I traded it in for a gasoline only vehicle (not a Mazda!). This experience made me a Hybrid hater, at least for the time being. Mazda's reputation for excellence won't be affiliated with this new first-year model. My CX-90 was one of the first off the assembly line (manufactured late 2023) and thus, had the full gamut of issues due to Mazda design failures, faulty vendor components and many software issues/bugs. The dealer was great to assist, but, as I told them, they were held responsible trying to fix my lemon told to me through Mazda and I had a whooper of a buggy CX-90 right from the start of ownership. When I informed the dealership I'd traded it in elsewhere, they seemed relieved and also a number of their employees said they fully understood why I did that.

Sporty PHEV 3row SUV

Been a Toyota guy, but after months of trying to buy Grand Highlander max hybrid. With limited availability and once trim line was available, there were added accessories, added cost over $3-4k over MSRP. Started looking at Mazda, didn’t know they made a 3 row SUV, let alone PHEV. Test drove CX-90 PHEV, blew me away. Much nicer interior (luxury) and exterior vs Grand Highlander max interior n exterior. But also Grand Highlander does not have a PHEV ! Living in the city I make many short trips during the week usually under 20 miles a trip. All electric mode range is up to 25-26 miles in CX-90 PHEV. Have had this CX-90 over a month and still haven’t had to stop by gas station to re-fuel. I just plug in CX-90 PHEV every night, next morning battery is fully charged (I normally just charge to 90%) But the driving experience is the best part of this sporty 3row suv vs family suv. Put this CX-90 PHEV in sports mode, it becomes a different beast, it just takes off when you floor it , the steering is so intuitive, you feel really planted to the road, especially on curvy roads. And you honestly forget this is a 3 row suv. This is a 323 HP suv hybrid PHEV not a Tesla. I test drove a Tesla Y extended range, very nice. But for me the Tesla is so plain inside and the exterior design seems really boring. I needed more interior room for my needs. And to my surprise , Mazda blew me away with interior and exterior design. Plus if you want to save $7500 on CX90 PHEV off MSRP go the leasing route, which I did ! Honestly if you haven’t test driven a CX90 , really should give them a test drive. I’m very happy I did !
