The auto box sometimes seems to lag to put the power down when entering roundabouts. I’ve learnt to adapt to it and it is not a problem
Pros: adapted to issue
Cons: lag to put power down

Torque converter AND transmission failure. Known Mazda issue too. Will run me $3000-$10,000 depending if I replace both. At this point I’m pretty sure my car is only worth $15k. Cost of repairs is/will be more than it’s worth.
Cons: transmission failure, known issue, expensive repair

I have a 2016 CX5 2.0L automatic.
transmission is clunky when downshifting to lower gears, especially when slowing down from low speed, have that issue since day one( purchased 4 years ago with 69000km, now speedo is on 145000km, not any major issue so far, knock on wood).
Cons: clunky downshifting

automatic transmission is no longer as smoothly as she used to be
Cons: not smooth

if you still want a reliable old school torque converter 6-speed auto on a commuter car, Mazda still sticks with them. And they're good!
Pros: reliable, good
