What Owners Say
"after being away for 3 weeks, both front and rear brakes started vibrating significantly and the pads required replacement. This should not happen after only 52,000 km, in my opinion"
Anonymous, ON (2017 Mazda CX-9 Sport 2.5-L 4 Cyl turbo)"The rear brake pads wore out at about 5000 miles and caused the rear rotors to wear unevenly."
Anonymous, IN (2017 Mazda CX-9 Unsure 2.5-L 4 Cyl turbo)"Going down highway grade, brakes overheated and caused severe pulsation, was driving carefully and giving brakes time to cool but still had issues"
Anonymous, CA (2017 Mazda CX-9 Grand Touring 2.5-L 4 Cyl turbo)"The rotors wore unevenly as a result of the break pads and needed to be replaced at about 5000 miles"
Anonymous, IN (2017 Mazda CX-9 Unsure 2.5-L 4 Cyl turbo)"when coming to a low speed stop, the brakes would squeal"
Craig B., CA (2017 Mazda CX-9 Grand Touring 2.5-L 4 Cyl turbo)"Brakes squeak at times when braking lightly. Mazda installed new pads under warranty and that seemed to fix it."

"I have has Subaru's since 1996 and the brakes lasted much longer between repairs/service so I feel Mazda's brakes wore out much faster. The service Manager said the mileage was usual so I believe Mazda's brakes wear prematurely as I have had 2 WRXs that I drove like WRXs (fast with cornering) so I am comparing like driving styles"
