As you say, sometimes brochures and ad copy changes. What does the Monroney sticker say, if anything?
 
Edmunds doesn't list the Auto-Dimming Mirror w/Compass and Homelink option pack as being available for the Grand Touring and it's not listed under the standard features.

Monroney sticker? AKA the window sticker? It says "auto dim mirror" ...doesn't mention the Homelink system (which it has). It also shows a date of 20090627 so its a pretty recent production model. We'll see what I can get from whining ...

That's a bit odd - Edmunds doesn't list Homelink for the Grand Touring that I can find. link

the 2009 CX-9 brochure does say "Auto-dimming mirror; garage door opener" as "S" (standard) on the GT. i am sure by garage door opener, they mean the homelink system.

yep, I came to the same conclusion; i.e., that the garage door opener is mazda speak for the homelink...thats why I thought the brochure read a bit awkward in that regard. elsewhere they use the brand name homelink and suddenly say (in the brochure) the homelink/auto dim with compass is not avail but the auto dim with the garage door opener is?? hhhhhmmmmmmmmm...something is fishy here methinks...is there a problem? does it not work in the GT (cant imagine why not)? and still if you look at the vehicle specs on line or roll your via the 'build your model' you CAN get the auto dim w/HL and w/Compass...so go figure eh...more to this than meets the eye...

But the MazdaUSA sight does not lie!
 
Go the the MazdaUSA site and build yourself a 2009, CX-9 AWD GT. The Homelink Mirror with Compass shows up on the right.
 
THAT is how Mazda built and sells the car. Unless your dealer monkeyd with the sticker, you got shafted.

Get screen captures of the website today. Just in case they change to the 2010 models between now and then, you'll have proof that Mazda builds the car with the homelink with Compass

again, good idea...got it and the .pdf of the veh specs too...but...this is probably what is going to give me trouble...under the 'terms and conditions' at the bottom of all the site pages:

Well that sucks...
 
Just don't show them that part....
 
Quite honestly, if you don't get satisfaction, Call MazdaUSA and file a complaint. I'm 85% positive that you'll get a credit for Mazda services to have it replaced.
 
Their customer service is excellent and I have been re-imbursed for their mistakes.
