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!

Beautiful Car, but already has issues

I leased the new CX90 less than two months ago. It’s a beautiful car, and an attention grabber. My family loves it because it’s extremely comfortable. BUT it already has issues. Less than a week after getting it, it started with a noise when accelerating. A little more than a month after the car seemed to get stuck in first gear when I made a turn. It happened twice. I took it into the dealer for service, and they seem to think it’s a transmission issue that needs an update. Could this be a recall issue? Maybe. Let’s see what happens. Not a good experience when a brand new car gives you issues so early into driving it.

Great car, but terrible driver recognition system

Love the car shape and interior, but the driver recognition drives me crazy, as it only works one time out of two. Also, the transmission is really not smooth at all

We got a lemon. Trying to get rid of it now. Check engine light on and Mazda takes forever to try to fix anything. Throws codes left and right. Recalls out the wazoo. We will just call this one a loss.

My First Hybrid

2024 Mazda CX-90 PHEV Premium 4dr SUV AWD (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric plug-in hybrid 8A)

So far so good. I waited for more inventory to show up at dealerships and have researched the two powertrains extensively. I am more used to the inline v6 type of engine, but with the $7500 rebate on the lease for the PHEV that I got on the front end to help with my trade...I took the leap. This morning I didn't have the battery fully charged...it had only charged itself to 7miles...but it was a seamless transition when the motor kicked in. I am hoping with a full charge, the mileage will be fantastic for my daily commute. The interior is GORGEOUS and I have owned Acura, BMW, Mercedes, Infiniti and Lexus! I have the PHEV Premium package and it is very well loaded and has so much space. It also is just enough wider than my QX60 to make it more comfortable. Very well built and beautiful finishes!
