Cost of servicing, repairs, and extended warranties are commensurate with the cost of the vehicle in this case, IMO. You get to pay premium for everything related to a premium vehicle.
Not really. Maintenance on a cx9 costs within $600 of the Q5 over 5 years, actually favoring the q5. Repair costs on the other hand are 300% higher for the Q5, at 3K vs $850.
*per Edmunds true cost to own calculator.
Yeah, but the repair costs are estimated based on the price of an extended warranty. Not sure how representative it is of actual repairs needed.
As far as maintenance, yes, that is surprising - Mazda seems to show a fairly high amount in year 5 while the Q5 does not. Not sure why that is.
