Consumer Description
First radiator blew (after noticing the temp gauge higher than normal and fan running a lot), and when replaced, the 2016 Mazda CX-9 continued to leak coolant. Took it to dealership to find out engine cylinder cracked and head gasket. A simple google search finds that so many Turbo Mazda’s between the years of 2016-20 experienced this design flaw as well. Mazda would not cover any of it since the car was out of warranty. It costed me over $7,000 to repair radiator and engine.
