2019 Mazda CX-5 2.0L Petrol · DX69 FOD

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a shift toward reactive rather than proactive upkeep. While the most recent test in April 2026 at 74,625 miles passed, several minor defects emerged, including a defective wiper blade, a perished nearside rear tyre, and an insecure fog lamp. These issues contrast with the clean records from 2024 and 2023, suggesting that attention to minor consumables has declined in the last twelve months. The mileage pattern is consistent with a typical-use private vehicle, averaging approximately 10,600 miles per annum. There is a notable jump of over 16,000 miles between December 2022 and December 2023, followed by a stead accumulation of roughly 9,000 to 10,000 miles annually thereafter. This usage suggests the car has not sat for long periods, though the 2025 test at 64,636 miles revealed a total failure in tyre management, as all four tyres were at the legal limit. A buyer should closely inspect the suspension geometry and alignment, as the 2025 report noted uneven wear on the edges of all four tyres, which often points to worn suspension bushes or incorrect tracking. Additionally, the 2022 advisory regarding thin rear inner brake pads at 33,991 miles necessitates a physical check of the current brake system to ensure no binding calipers or excessive wear. Given the recent report of perished rubber in 2026, the age of the tyres should be verified for dry degradation regardless of remaining tread depth.
