Pretty good SUV. It's been satisfactory for the past nine years.
It's an SUV with three rows. We can seat seven passengers. It has a sunroof. It's an automatic transmission. It's pretty comfortable for long drives, and it drives pretty well. The navigation/map system needs a lot of improvement -- the maps are awful (no detail).

Great car! Heated seats and four wheel drive
This car is amazing in harsh weather conditions. It has 4wd so on super snowy days, it can cruise right through. It has heated seats in the 2 front seats. The interior is dark leather seats so on sunny days, cool off the car for a minute or two before sitting down.

It's a heavy car & is sturdy on the road. With this in mind it makes you feel safer.
The car is sturdy & has been very reliable however it is too wide which I don't like. Would rather see it trimmer.

Things to like about a Mazda
Very reliable vehicle, great gas mileage. The third row comes in handy when traveling with the family. Taking care of your vehicle will give it great performance, it can get up and go when u need it too. Comfortable on trips as well. Keyless entry would just be a plus.

Love my Mazda 9 years later!
My Mazda is 9 years old. I love the drive, maintenance has been simple. The reliability of our Mazda has never let us down. It carries our family of 5 comfortable and has been known to make road trips with 7. We have the sports package with rails on the top. We also have the map and self raising back hatch. One performance problem we have had is the DVD/map/CD player does not function properly and the repair has been quoted at $1500.

Terrible SUV
Got the car because it rides awesome. The big tires do very well, handles like a sporty car. Third row would not be big enuf for a adult, does well with kids. I have owned it for 35k miles and it has been in the shop 3 times for MAJOR repairs. Oil was leaking out of the drivetrain ($900 repair). It had a new water pump when I bought it, that broke again. When the water pumps go, antifreeze gets into your engine with these (same with Ford Edge). Engine wise, this is basically a Ford Edge. I had to replace my ENTIRE ENGINE for a faulty water pump ($3k). These are known for transfer case failures, the case is close to the muffler, which heats it up. That was $2k. Both of these issues are so well known, there are class actions since there was never a recall. The airbags all got fixed from a recall (metal fragments in airbag). The GPS is terrible, I never use it. Randomly for no reason the automatic wiper sensor turns on. The best part I like about the car is that the stereo system is awesome. I would not recommend this car to anyone.

The power of the vehicle.
I like how big it is with the 3rd row. I like how smoothly it drives. I dislike how easily the wheel guards came off. I dislike how the front side near the tire popped off.

Mazda CX-9: A fantastic SUV
We had trouble with the AC and the front wheel bearings, but it rides great and the kids love it. The car is comfortable and it holds up to 8 passengers, so it is good for long trips and taking groups of kids to the movies or other events. No problems on snow or ice either.

I like the color of my car and the size. What I don't like about my car is that it waste a lot of gas on the long distances.
The size of the car and the seat amount is good for bigger family.

09 Mazda cx-9 touring review.
Brakes seem to go fast, although I do a lot of driving. Love the stability of the SUV, along with the pick up speed. Great car, would definitely recommend. Great on storage, comfort ability, and good on gas. Would like to see more metal instead of plastic.

Good outlook with a modern features
It is reliable strong and it efficiency is best to know especially during the snow, it durable and have a strong interior heating system is perfect and gas consumption is at its highest limits. The break system give speed comfort meaning with it ABS the fear of been failed is simply avoidable. The car is spacious allowing for movement of large goods and for family comfort. The weight is ground balanced therefore giving a good wind resistance and road balances.

You will not be disappointed!
This vehicle is built so well! I live in Texas and good air conditioner is a must have. The backseat ac helps keep my children cool all summer long! The spacious trunk when 3rd row is folded down really helps when I need to fit furniture or other large items. The car is a comfortable height from the ground which is a bonus when you have back pain! It is quite easy to get in and out of without crouching or stepping up! The car is 10 years old and has not required any major repairs. I have kept up with the suggested maintenance schedule, and it has sure paid off. It is the perfect size so that we can fit two families in when needed! Plenty of room for everyone.

It has a really low mileage on it. It was only used to go from shopping and work from a short distance.
My car was actually in really good shape I payed a flat rate for it from a very nice man. The interior was in great condition. Not many miles on it and was cheep. I have no complaints about the vehicle.

Family Car! Must have for anyone
Absolutely love my Mazda! It has been with my family for over 8 years. It has been there through high school to my first child and I feel so safe knowing it has many miles left! The power is fantastic and the model is beautiful. Best first car and we will definitely be sticking with Mazda
accountCircle Noton C on November 19, 2019
Its can be quite fast if pushed. It also makes good highway mileage for road trips.
I like that it has room for 7 people. Its AWD but i don't think i used it yet. Its has a few wear and tear things so it's starting to break down

Stylish, safe SUV to drive the kids and their friends around town...
The CX9 is a big, heavy SUV that drives like a car. I feel safe driving my tweens and their friends to their various activities around the County. We are able to fit all their friends in this car and they prefer this SUV over another parent's minivan. I've received a lot of compliments on this stylish SUV over the years. More importantly, the larger grand touring tires drive more easily in thick snow and flooding. I would definitely buy this SUV again.

Mazda CX-9 SUV review from a mom
Easy to drive, less expensive than other 7 passenger SUVs, third row option is easy to use, comfortable for the kids, not a lot of trunk space when the third row is in use but tons of space when it is not in use, Bluetooth capability is sometimes unreliable

I want to install Bluetooth
Gets me from point a to point b. Milae was around 80,00. Brake job was done, tune ups. That's just about done

Perfect vehicle for the family.
The 2009 Mazda cx-9 is a perfect family vehicle. It comfortably seats 7 people and also has the option to lay the middle and 3rd row seats down for Optimal space when needed. The vehicle handles well and has decent gas mileage for a vehicle of its size. Comfort and features include a sunroof, heated seats, navigation, and separate rear heating and cooling. This Mazda is also equipped with high quality Bose speakers.

It is roomy for a smaller SUV type vehicle yet the mechanicals of it are faulty.
I have had several issues with this vehicles such as door locks not operating, windows malfunctioning, an axle breaking off while driving as well as the heat shield coming off.

Reliable and roomy vehicle.
This vehicle is comfortable and has space for 7 people. The back row is a bit small for older kids and adults but perfect for younger children. It drives like a sports car and had been very reliable.
accountCircle Palace O on February 23, 2019
It is a seven-seater without being bulky.
I love the fact that it seats 7 and is roomy. The seat warmers are great in the winter! The only thing I can think of that I dislike is the fact that the windows in the very back do not roll down or crack.
accountCircle Laura S on December 27, 2018
I love my Mazda for many reasons!
My Mazda cx-9 drives great and is very comfortable. It has a third row seat and holds my entire family comfortably. And still has room in the back for anything we need to haul. I love the way it looks and drives. We have not had any mechanical issues. It is the first time I have ever owned a Mazda and I love it.
accountCircle Moriah H on December 22, 2018
The great things about the cx-9.
Has big blind spots that I haven't had in other cars. Bluetooth stopped working. Other then that the car is awesome. We have taken it on 2 vacations and it still runs really great. The seats are heated and they adjust to however you want to sit. The backup camera is awesome.

The Mazda CX-9 makes a great family vehicle.
I really enjoy the smoothness and quiet ride of this vehicle. It had about 100,000 miles on it when I acquired it, but it a welcome change as I now have a 4-year-old. This makes a very good family vehicle
