Replying to: sizematters (Feb 19, 2008 7:08 pm) Thank you very much for your unadressed response! The information from you is very helpful.. I'm going to make an inquiry with my dealer rep (I am the proud owner of an 07 GT AWD, and the P.M. of a dealer)., and though I'm in Northern California (not much daily snow here ) but our family does make trips to the sierra and the last thing I want to experience is the failure of our AWD system... If I get any significant responce from him... I'll add it to our continued information.
#1109 of 1120 2nd Row Seat Tracks by mseningen Feb 25, 2008 (6:41 pm)
So folks who own these CX-9s what is your real world experience with those 2nd row seat tracks.   My wife looked at those and has all but thrown the cx-9 out of the running.   She just shook her head and asked "What were they thinking?"   She's expecting them to collect french fries and pennies.   Is it as bad as she thinks.......?   m Replies to this message: steve_ (Feb 25, 2008 11:07 pm) maltb (Feb 26, 2008 9:36 am) imamg (Feb 27, 2008 9:18 am)

Replying to: mseningen (Feb 25, 2008 6:41 pm) It's hard to tell from the photo I found, but they look a bit similar to the tracks in my Quest. But my tracks are about 3' long and go from the back of the front seats to about a foot or so from the rear hatch. I have carpet strips with plugs attached that fit in the tracks that I have to pop out to slide the rear seat back and forth, but the tracks do accumulate stuff. Rarely does anything keep me from sliding the seat back and forth though, and occasionally I'll stick a vacuum nozzle in there and clean the dirt out.   I guess one advantage is that they give you a bit more foot room since the seat isn't sitting on long brackets attached to the floor. If you don't move the second row much, a floor mat would probably keep most junk out of the rails.

Replying to: mseningen (Feb 25, 2008 6:41 pm) Just to give you a baseline, I have 4 kids and 13k miles.   I just vacuumed the CX-9 the other day and was surprised that the tracks were not worse than they were. there was some light dirt in there, but nothing major. So far, no problems with the seats sliding back and forth.

Replying to: mseningen (Feb 25, 2008 6:41 pm) We're about 8k in to the car... w/3 kids ages 7 to 16... we haven't had any issues at all with the 2nd row seats/tracks at all ... In fact I'm still pretty impressed with the design and function of the 2nd row all together... the ease of use getting into the rear seats etc...
#1113 of 1120 Re: Alignment Problem? [teofil] by mjbennett9 Mar 27, 2008 (4:54 am)
Replying to: teofil (Sep 27, 2007 11:03 am) I have same issue with my brand new 2007 CX-9 with 18" tires. I noticed on test drive but thought nothing of it because I purchased a mazda 3 last year and had same issue on test drive, but was completely gone after test drive. Well, I bought the CX-9, and immediately brought back for alignment. Tech said out of specs a little, but "these" sporty suspensions tend to turn one way or the other. Well, mine completely and always turns to the left. The alignment helped a little, but this car is NOT fun to drive because I ALWAYS have to hold steering wheel to the right. I'm taking back three times and filing a lemon law claim. That'll teach em. Replies to this message: jchan66 (Mar 27, 2008 8:27 am)

#1115 of 1120 Mazda CX-9 Navigation System by texas68 May 22, 2008 (4:16 pm)
Does anyone know if the navigation system has been upgraded from the 2007 Model to the 2008 Model? I had heard that with the 2008 Model Navigation System you can view and control the Climate Control using the touch screen on the navigation system Screen just like you can control the Audio. The Mazda Website also seemes to indicate this. IN particular, it says:   A navigation system with touch-screen functionality provides real-time mapping, directions, points-of-interest, trip information as well as control and display of audio and climate control functions.   Can someone confirm?   Thanks Replies to this message: live2ski (May 22, 2008 4:52 pm)

Replying to: onzie1 (Nov 29, 2007 12:18 pm) Are you able to view and control the climate system using your touch screen navigation system?
#1117 of 1120 Re: Mazda CX-9 Navigation System [texas68] by live2ski May 22, 2008 (4:52 pm)
Replying to: texas68 (May 22, 2008 4:16 pm) maybe for 2009, but not for the '08. The nav touch screen only works when not moving and no climate or trip information is displayed. That would be a nice enhancement over the current system.
