Title: Why the feeble horn on the CX-5 compared to the proper set up on the Mazda 6?
Post by: madhatter27 on December 02, 2013, 07:10:26 am

I have had my CX5 for just over 2 months. Great car and looks great in Soul Red.
One gripe however which appears to be getting lots of comment stateside but not here.
I refer to how feeble the single horn is on the CX-5 particularly when compare to the dual horn set up on the Mazda 6.

There is lots of comment and You Tube footage on this issue on the web.

Have changed to the Mazda from a BMW Touring I am in the main very pleased with my decision.

I can't stand the horn however. It deserves to be in landfill or on some small nondescript car - certainly not on something as good as the CX-5.

The US comment confirms that the wiring is on the car for a twin horn set up so why the penny pinching?

Completely agree. Had my CX-5 for about two hours now, and within the first 10 minutes of playing with all the buttons I was embarrassed by the pathetic horn.

The facelift CX-5 (2015) has dual horns fitted....much better.
