Another physician, and CX-5 owner from the 2018 model year.

The reliability of my vehicle with 23k miles has ben good, but not perfect as the front brake calipers were not adequately lubricated at the factory, which ruined my front rotors. Thankfully, due to a TSB, Mazda did replace them under the warranty at no cost.

I overall like the vehicle. If I bought another, I would buy the GTR with the turbo engine as the base 2.5NA could use a little more power, has a torque peak that is too high at 4400 RPM's, and makes too much buzzy noise when pushed hard. Unfortunately, the turbo was not an option when I bought mine.

I am a little annoyed about the Android Auto upgrade as the $400 price I was quoted I think is overpriced. I realize they think they need to upgrade the 1 amp USB port in the front that push up the price, but it was not worth it to me. Toyota charges $99 on the Camry and for that price I would not have hesitated.

I have not owned a BMW, and don't plan to due to their reliability issues.
