Default MAZDA 2020 CX-5 suspensión hard

I just bought 2020 Mazda CX-5 touring and the suspension is very firm with the car wobbling on very bumpy roads. I feel every bump. I had a 2017 CX-5 and never had this. Does anyone else have a problem with the 2020 CX-5 suspension?

Have you checked the tire pressure; cars are shipped overseas with LOTS of pressure in the tires to help keep them stable when the ship is a rockin' and a rollin'. Over the years I've had two car delivered to me from the showroom (1 German, 1 Japanese) with so much pressure in the tires they were both uncomfortable to drive and very difficult to control.

I agree with shipo, Mazda ships them all that way. It's supposed to be checked during the PDI, but it often isn't.

Check the tire pressures. Same issue when I had my car delivered. Their pressure was way beyond specs.

I have the same model and am also experiencing a harsh ride. What pressure do you recommend?

The Owner's Manual for our 2016 says 36 psi all around. I typically keep our cars between 36 and 38 psi.

We set them at 38psi at my work. If it was my vehicle I would run them at 40psi.
