#1118 of 1120 Re: cx-9 transfer case failure [sizematters] by marklorenz Oct 20, 2008 (9:56 am)
Replying to: sizematters (Feb 19, 2008 7:07 pm) I'm glad I'm not the only one with issues with the AWD - I have an '07 GT AWD and had no problems with it until just last week... It started with a slightly noticeable "clunk" you could feel and hear in the driveline when you jumped on the throttle from a stand-still but then all was well... hardly noticeable in normal city driving. Then with no notice, I jumped on the gas pulling out of a driveway into a busy street and the front tires spun and it was torque steer central (never happened before) and that is when I realized that no power was being sent to the rear wheels... I'm going to take it to Mazda this week... let you know how it turns out. Has anyone had this issue resolved at their local Mazda dealer?
#1119 of 1120 NEW TRANSFER CASE by marklorenz Oct 22, 2008 (12:12 pm)
... I wrote a few days ago about my AWD 2007 CX-9 GT - I suspected the transfer case failed. Turns out I was right. My experience with the local Mazda dealer was a positive one - they called me back about 4 hours after I dropped off the car and said "you were right sir, we'll have a new transfer case here in 2 days". Said I was the first person to bring in a AWD CX-9 to their dealership with this problem... but I live in sunny Orange County and I imagine the vast majority of soccer moms driving these vehicles wouldn't even notice the problem if they had it... Makes me wonder how many people may be driving AWD CX-9s in good weather climates with non-functional transfer cases... It took me, a car nut and driving enthusiast who bought this model for its 263 hp and AWD NOT the 3rd row seats! to point this out to the the local Mazda dealer.
#1120 of 1120 Stock Tires, 20in.? by joalsgarageinc Nov 12, 2008 (3:37 pm)
I have a customer here with an 07 CX9 who hit a pothole and popped a tire. Firestone won't warranty it in their "roadside hazard" package so I thought we would be able to order one... I've searched all my local distributors, and even online but am told that they are on "national backorder" and I will be notified when they are available. They are size P245/50R20- stock tires and rims I find it hard to believe that even the local Mazda dealership can't get them and are trying to sell him a new set of 18 in. rims and tires at full cost. Any advise? What do you tell a customer when it takes over a week to find a tire? and to top it off it comes with a compact spare. what are they thinking?
