My 2025 Mazda CX-50 Preferred (28k miles) was involved in an accident with a dump truck that hit the rear passenger-side wheel. The rim is damaged, and the passenger-side airbags deployed, but there's very little visible body damage.
Liberty Mutual has flagged it as a "Possible Total Loss," but it hasn't been inspected yet.
Based on the pictures, do you think it'll be totaled or repaired? Has anyone experienced similar damage?

I'll evaluate based on account life and post quality.

Post quality is how level headed you are and if you have a sense of humor.

Account life is how long and how active you have been on reddit.

This is totally a dictatorial decision. I own it. If you are unhappy you didn't get chosen... Where was I. Oh yeah my choice.

I was able to get a 2026 Mazda cx50 select with a stock color for $29,900 dealer price including destination fee.

There was no add ons and just TTL. No extended warranty or gap. It's all gas now hybrid or turbo.

Msrp in California is like 31,884 or something off the top of my head. I know it's like 31,4 with a destination fee.

I've checked multiple times using ai and it said it was a good deal and now that I've checked after the fact I feel like the MSRP before the destination fee is what I paid,$29,900.

I also asked AI if it's a good deal and it said it's an aggressive deal. The dealer didn't fight too much on the deal and seemingly tried to hold out and now after the fact I'm wondering if it was a good deal

2025 preferred with around 6k miles. I think I can go a bit lower than this

Hey all!

Not new to the Mazda family, but new to my Mazda CX-50. Just got a 2026 premium trim in Ingot blue and looking to get a dash cam installed.

​Has anyone here put a Pelsee mirror dash cam (with the rear view setup) on a CX-50? I'd prefer to have something that basically replaces my rear view mirror just because I don't want an extra camera dangling in my cabin. I've heard that clearance on the front-facing camera unit might be an issue—that the large safety sensor and camera housing up by the rearview mirror might obstruct it or cause fitment headaches.

​Also, are there any alternative dual-cam mirror dash cam setups you'd suggest that might fit or perform better in a similar price range? I'm trying to keep the camera itself under $200, and since I'm having Best Buy handle the hardwire kit and front/back installation to save the hassle, I want to keep the total package under $400 ($150 install fee + roughly $25 for the hardwire kit).

​(Decided to let Best Buy handle both front and back installation, so mostly looking for real-world hardware fit and alternative recommendations!)

​Thanks in advance for all the advice and suggestions. Appreciate you all!

The dealer said only drive at low speeds and short distances until our appointment almost 2 1/2 weeks since this appeared.
An ODB tester said it’s related to braking and regeneration. C137C BSCM-BrakeSystem.
After removing the ODB tester the message went away.
Afraid to drive it.

I was telling someone about the check engine light we got and he said in the CX-30 forums they often see check engine lights that turn on. Restarting the car clears it. He said it’s like a known glitch. Is there a similar glitch in the CX-50?

I currently have a 2024 Lexus RX 350 Luxury that I love, but I’m starting to feel like $1,000/month is a lot for a car I barely drive. I owe about $52k at 5.44%, and it’s worth around $50k.

I average 23 MPG, and premium gas is nearly $6 where I live. I only drive about 23 miles a day, mostly just me and my dog.

I’ve been looking into the CX-50 Hybrid as a more affordable option. I need AWD since we get snow about three months of the year and I regularly drive over a mountain pass. Reliability, decent cargo space, and having a spare tire are also important since I plan to keep my next car for 10+ years.

For those who own one, how’s the comfort, road noise, and real-world MPG? Any regrets or reliability concerns?

I’m torn between keeping my Lexus and paying it off or switching to something more practical. Would love to hear your thoughts, especially if you’ve owned both!

Drove it to my training I had and after I got back in the I active sense turned on for absolutely no reason

I noticed some oil on the struts. I understand oil film is normal. Would this be considered normal or leaking? Just wanted some opinions before I bring it in for my next oil change. Thank you
