Making a great new car is difficult, but making one that's highly competitive AND reliable is a different kind of challenge. Today, I'll drive a 7 year old Mazda CX-5 with 136 thousand miles to see how well they hold up in the long run. I'll also talk with a Mazda Master Technician to learn more about the common problems you might run into.
Other vehicles to consider include the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, Mazda CX-50, Nissan Rogue, VW Tiguan, Ford Escape, Mitsubishi Outlander, Subaru Forester and probably 10 others.
Thank you, Royal South Toyota and Royal South Mazda for letting me test drive this CX-5 and answering my questions.
