I went to Mazda for a new key because the 2022 CX5 fob just crumbled when it slipped out of my butter fingers onto concrete floor and they cost $500 to replace. It does not really function any better than the old fobs.
It now has a LED Headlight malfunction and the dealer is charging $2000 to replace it.
“Recommended service Bulb - Headlight Assembly: REPLACE DRIVER HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY The entire casing that includes the bulb and the lens that mounts into the front of the car. $2,004.17”
Has it always cost this much for everyone else? I owned Chevy Silverado’s before and my 2016 Mazda 6 never gave me any issues. Chevrolet gave me bumper to bumper so any issues it gave was just repaired.
I love Mazda but… this is getting ridiculous for simple issues. Can’t imagine what the next minor inconvenience is going to cost me now. I remember mechanics charged less for removing the entire dash to get to the AC compressor.
Genuinely curious about these costs.
LED Headlights are expensive. $1265 for base LED and $1790 for directional beam headlights.
in other words, around 2k for the directional headlights, which is what OP was quoted.
Nothing slimy about the dealer’s service department.
