No I am not stupid enough to buy something before I read what the vehicle came with let alone complain after the purchase it not coming with it. And where if the world did you think a tire pressure system was a basic feature? ROLMAO (roll over laugh me **** off) because that is a basic feature of ROLAO.
Next time do a little more looking into something as expensive as a new vehicle BEFOR you invest in it. LOL
wow! I have read some really wild response on forums but this thread takes first prize!!!!!
nd form a member with total responses on this forum. yup definitely a great contributor here.
I guess you don't get out much if you don't think an individual tire pressure display is a common feature on today's vehicles.
I'm going to have to give you not one but 2 pinocchio's for implying you confirm that every component in/on a vehicle that you buy is actually on that vehicle. If you say you do, your green snozola is going to grow even longer.
If you skip and hour or two of your 3 stooges viewing and do a little bit of research, you'll discover that an individual tire pressure display is pretty much a standard feature on most all new vehicles. Is that old Mazda (with the tpm idiot light) the last new vehicle you purchased?
It's obvious that nobody can check for each and every feature/component in a car before they buy. My issue is that a 2021 CX-5 that is very well equipped technologically, also lacks such a basic feature feature as individual tire pressure indicators. Personally, I would not expect this. I would fully expect missing feature if I had purchased a low trim Chevy Spark or Nissan Versa.
A smart, well run company like Mazda should take these comments and use them to improve their product without getting their feeling hurt that someone posted a slight on a public web site. In fact they did finally add the individual tire pressure display on the CX-50, which shows that they realized it is a needed feature.

Other than the missing individual tire pressure tire indicators, how are you liking your CX-5? I purchased a 2022 non turbo CX-5 Premium Plus Package and for $36K it is very, very well equipped. But......no individual tire pressure display and not being able to change radios stations on the steering wheel is a big Duh! for a top of the line trim package.
It's my first Mazda. I had to buy a car and Mazda was the only manufacturer around me with sufficient inventory where I would not be gouged. I looked at the feature set vs cost and I bought my first Mazda.
It's a fine car. '22 CX-5 GT Reserve. Only had it since late Nov '22. It's reliable and I really enjoy the performance and engine power/torque. Never has a HUD, but I really like this feature.
However, in my opinion, the car has many quirks, some of which drive me nuts. One small quirk is that each driver cannot save radio station presets. I actually asked the salesman and he said the car could save 2 sets of presets, 1 set of presets for each driver. After I had the car, I realized the ability to store individual settings for each driver is very very limited. This is one of the things that should not cost Mazda much money to address...probably software only. Many other quirks which will not usually come up during a test drive.
Mazda sent me a long survey/questionnaire on my new car and I was thorough in my opinions. I think this is smart for them to do this, so that they can ascertain what their customers would like to see in future cars. This is how they can improve on their products and that is a very good thing.

It's tough to get everything you want on a mainstream compact crossover. Oh well. The CX-5 as you say is "a fine car", especially for the money. Good luck with yours.

So I was looking at different things about the CX-5 and came across something called FORScan. Apparently it's like the old VAG-COM or VCDS on Volkswagens/Audis where you can use a program to manually change values in the ECM to enable/disable certain features. Thought maybe we could do something like this:
That video showed changes to a system which already showed each tires pressure. It would be really strange if the ability to display the pressures was there and just not active (unless it did so on a higher trim level). The CX5 has never been able to display individual pressures. Maybe it's the sensor they use in the wheel? As the CX50 does display the individual pressures, maybe someone will figure a way to get it working on a CX5.

There is a device on ebay that you can buy that will read the actual pressures from the sensors that are already installed, so half the equation is actually there. I'm so curious if this would work. I might try myself. Maybe. If I get the courage lol.
It doesn't do that for the CX-5. At least not for my 21...
It doesn’t show individual tire pressure in the MyMazda app for my 2023 CX-5 Signature either. Spent as much as a CX-50 but Mazda apparently doesn’t value my 3rd purchase of a CX-5. They should have the wireless Apple CarPlay in a Signature also like in the CX-50. A firmware update in the car and App upgrade for MyMazda should rectify that. I like Mazda vehicles, but appears Mazda Executives just want their bonus, not happy customers.
Agree 100%. So annoying and illogical. Up and down control buttons should change the preset station.
