2022 CX5 rough ride

Ride Quality is subjective

I remember when I was a kid ,my Mom would always tell my dad his Blue 1956 Packard Patrician was too smooth, she claimed she couldn't feel the road when she drove it .He only bought it because the 1949 Packard they had , had a manual trans my Mom didn't like , so he traded it in for the 1956 Packard Patrician . He traded that Packard in ( after the second trans went bad and was replaced ) for a Black Mercury Country cruiser Colony Park station Wagon with simulated Wood wood on the side. She loved it and never complained ,he hated it . I was too young to tell the difference at the time, but that Packard was my favorite. The way cars ride is a matter of taste.
And once again the coffee gang here this morning is laughing their **** off and we are all veterans in the industry!!

Who knows his sensitivity ,real or imagined
Who knows what others feel or perceive to feel. I have a friend who thinks my Beretta 92X RDO has a sharp heavy recoil . To me and most others it is the mildest shooting 9mm around. He's a Glock fan boy ,so that's probably the real issue .

Update: after a week or so of evaluation, I still know that the seat hight makes a big difference on the base model cx5 for how much road bumps the driver feels. There definitely is a problem though. I believe it’s an internal valving issue. I will never know, though. The wife traded it in for.. another CX5, which rides so much better.

The seat making for an adjustable ride quality of the suspension other then fitting the occupants is going to be one talked about I am sure when it gets passed on to other Mazda forums as something that is real...

I am a trained professional. Maybe not a Mazda Tech, But Ive been a Mechanic for over 25 years. It's my wife that noticed the issue though, she drives it every day. It's hard being on the other side of the counter and not being able to work on your own cars.

LOL auh ok then.... I am not a Mazda trained tech but I am a little something else I can tell you either something was wrong with your seat or it didn't happen! No I said it for clarity, I was trying to avoiding being blunt but come on really!!!
