Mazda CX-5 Extended Warranty FAQ

What does the Mazda factory warranty cover on a new CX-5?

New Mazda CX-5s come with a 3-year/36,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty and a 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. An Athena extended warranty extends protection after these expire.

Is the Mazda CX-5 reliable enough to skip extended warranty?

The CX-5 is among the most reliable compact crossovers, but A/C compressor failure ($900–$1,700), transmission issues ($2,500–$4,500), and electrical problems can still occur. An extended warranty protects you from these unexpected costs.

What CX-5 model years are eligible for Athena coverage?

Most Mazda CX-5 model years (2013 and newer) with a clean title and under 150,000 miles at enrollment are eligible. Contact us for your specific model year's eligibility.

Can I use a Mazda dealer for covered CX-5 repairs?

Yes. Athena covers repairs at any licensed facility — Mazda dealers, national chains, or independent shops. We pay the shop directly. You pay only the $100 deductible per visit.

How much does a Mazda CX-5 extended warranty cost?

Plans for a Mazda CX-5 typically start at $28–$75 per month depending on model year, mileage, and coverage tier. Call (833) 251-9786 for a free quote.
