MAZDA CX-90 Maintenance Timeline in Augusta, ME
At our Paul Blouin Mazda Service Department, we understand that your Mazda CX-90 represents a significant investment in quality, performance, and reliability. This premium three-row SUV combines sophisticated engineering with everyday practicality, and maintaining it properly ensures you'll enjoy peak performance for years to come. Our technicians have developed this comprehensive maintenance timeline to help you understand exactly when your CX-90 needs attention after your commute in Augusta, ME.
The First Year: Building a Foundation
Your relationship with your Mazda CX-90 begins with the first oil change, typically due at 7,500 miles or six months, whichever comes first. During this initial visit, our certified technicians perform a multi-point inspection, checking fluid levels, tire pressure, and brake condition. We also rotate your tires to ensure even wear patterns from the start. This early service sets the tone for your vehicle's longevity and gives us a baseline to track your Mazda CX-90's health over time.
Establishing the Pattern: 15,000 to 30,000 Miles
At 15,000 miles, we perform your second oil change and tire rotation while conducting a more thorough inspection of your brake pads, suspension components, and exhaust system. The cabin air filter typically needs replacement at this interval, ensuring your HVAC system continues delivering clean, fresh air to you and your passengers on drives near locations like Granite City Park. When you reach 30,000 miles, we recommend replacing your engine air filter along with the standard oil change and tire rotation. This service also includes inspecting your battery, coolant system, and all belts and hoses for signs of wear. For Mazda CX-90 models equipped with the turbocharged engine, we pay special attention to the turbocharger's condition and all associated components.
The Major Service: 45,000 to 60,000 Miles
The 45,000-mile service follows the established pattern of oil changes and tire rotations, but we also begin evaluating components that experience moderate wear. This includes a comprehensive brake inspection and measurement of pad and rotor thickness. At 60,000 miles, your Mazda CX-90 requires its first major service interval. This comprehensive appointment includes transmission fluid replacement, which is crucial for maintaining smooth shifts and protecting internal components. We also replace spark plugs, inspect the fuel system, and replace the engine coolant. This service typically takes longer than routine maintenance, but it's essential for preventing expensive repairs down the road while on I-93.
Maintaining Peak Performance: 75,000 Miles and Beyond
At 75,000 miles, we return to the standard maintenance routine with an oil change, tire rotation, and multi-point inspection. However, we also recommend replacing brake fluid, which naturally absorbs moisture over time and can compromise braking performance. The 90,000-mile service mirrors many aspects of the 60,000-mile appointment, including another transmission fluid change and a thorough inspection of all drivetrain components. For AWD Madza CX-90 models, we also service the transfer case and rear differential at this interval.
Beyond the Schedule: Listening to Your CX-90
While these mileage-based intervals provide a reliable framework, we always encourage our customers to bring their Mazda CX-90 in between scheduled services if something feels off. Unusual noises, warning lights, or changes in performance should never be ignored. Our service advisors are always available to address concerns and schedule inspections as needed.

Testimonials
“ We have driven Volkswagen for years. We have had six Volkswagen’s altogether through the years. The latest being a Jetta GLI and a Tiguan. I purchased a Mazda SUV from this dealership to replace the Tiguan and I am so impressed with the vehicle and this dealership compared to the horrors we dealt with VW the last couple years, between a simple key being programmed to a DSG service being done as a drain and fill. When it comes to dealership service knowledge and accountability Volkswagen America would not help us resolve a legal issue that was never resolved stating that they depend on their technicians and dealers for technical diagnosis when a customer has a concern. This was extremely concerning to me. After doing a lot of research, Volkswagen America is a lot different company than they were 10 years ago. I love this Mazda. I will never own another Volkswagen again. The quality is superior to the Tiguan by far. We will be trading the GLI in as well. This is by far the best experience I have had with a dealership. The service department and sales department are extremely knowledgeable. Highly recommend. ”
“ My mother from vermont was visiting here in maine. She has a new mazda but couldn't use her remote start from her phone. Upon going into the dealership she was treated with respect, patience and professionalism. Awesome experience!! ”
“ Paul Blouin Mazda continues to impress me with their top notch service going above and beyond even after my car purchase. It’s refreshing to find a dealership that provides excellent customer service! They understand the value of building a lasting relationship. I love my Mazda hybrid CX-50 and will continue to recommend them to everyone!!! ”
“ We bought our first Mazda and Brandon treated us like we were family. He found us a car that we love and walked us through the whole process patiently and clearly. At no point did I feel as if we were being taken advantage of. He is going to be my first call when we need to find our next car. ”
“ Sam Blouin and the service team over there are top tier. They’ll send you videos of service completed on your vehicle. They also go above and beyond to make sure you are completely happy with your purchase. ”
“ Bought a car from Paul Blouins mazda Sam was great! Honest not pushy great family run business. ”
“ Had a great experience going up there today to get help mounting and dismounting my motorcycle tire although they were closed there was a service man. They’re working on his personal tires and he took the time to help me get my tire mounted on my wheel so I could go home and put my wheel back on the bike and be ready to go. He didn’t have to. I didn’t have an appointment. He was just a nice guy and made time for me. I appreciate that and I tipped him handsomely. ”
“ Brandon was absolutely fabulous! We had too much fun! I walked in to trade in my 2018 CX5 (which I was buried in from a different dealership, never again!) and were looking at a 2023 Cx9, well! We left with a 2025 CX-70 fully loaded for what it would’ve cost us getting the CX9. I’m absolutely in love. This is my 3rd Mazda and I will definitely be back when it’s time to upgrade! ”
“ I recently purchased a used, 2022 Mazda CX-30 Premium Package from the GM, Brandon O’Clair. I am extremely satisfied with how the purchase went down. Brandon was very easygoing and upbeat. I brought in a trade-in that had quite a few scratches on it, that I’m surprised I got as well of a deal on it as I did, but all thanks to Brandon. After I had sat down and signed the paperwork to purchase my new car, I noticed a missing piece inside the car. I notified Brandon of this, and he immediately offered to purchase me a replacement and ship it out to my home address, free of charge. This gratitude was greatly appreciated. ”
“ Wonderful experience here with a lease trade in and getting a new CX-50. Brandon was a great help with paperwork and such AND we were in and out in less than two hours! A record for me for sure! Our new car was in pristine condition and we will definitely be recommending Paul Blouin Mazda (and Brandon!) to anyone needing a new vehicle for the forseeable future. ”
“ Best experience I've ever had with a car dealership and it's not even close! Would recommend Paul Blouin to anyone. Brandon is an amazing General Manager. Thanks guys! ”
“ As someone who doesn’t enjoy the dealership/salesman experience, I must say I had a pleasant car buying experience here. I was going to buy a Mazda CX9 from Carmax but decided to check the inventory at Paul Blouin’s. To my surprise they had a certified pre-owned CX-90 that was just a couple thousand more than the CX-9 I was looking at. Since I live in Augusta I figured I’d drive down and see what deal they could offer. Met with Brandon who was very kind and informative without being pushy. He had a good attitude and wanted to give me what I wanted instead of forcibly selling me crap I didn’t want. My income is great but since I’m self employed and take a lot of deductions it looks like I make nothing on paper based on my taxes. Was hoping this dealership could use their connections to get me a good rate on a loan with a larger down payment. On top of this my credit score was pretty bad due credit mistakes made when I was younger, it was about 600. Thanks to Brandon’s help and the connections he/the dealership has with lenders, he was able to secure me a 7% rate. I was expecting a 13% rate to be completely honest. I knew what I was getting into but the “investment” was worth it for my family’s needs and income. Truly grateful for the help from Brandon and the great reputation of this dealership. Will update this review if anything changes. ”
“ Brandon was amazing! He made my first car experience at a dealership wonderful! Brandon was very well knowledgeable about the Mazdas I was looking at ended up leaving with a Mazda that I love highly recommended ”
“ Paul Blouin Mazda had a hard to find color and interior combo for a manual transmission car that we wanted. Called up and Mike was really helpful with getting our info to set up the paperwork. When we drove up to Augusta Sam pitched in to get signatures and deliver the car with no fuss. Since it was a unique car they even laminated the window sticker! These guys delivered the easiest car buying experience ever. ”
“ Our sales associate Sam made our purchasing experience seamless and easy. He showed us a variety of inventory and helped us pick out the vehicle we wanted gave us a great experience a great price.Sam and everyone at Paul Blouins no pressure approach makes you feel like your treated as family not just a sale. And makes you already want to do your next purchase with them again. Hands down on of the best dealerships in the area keep up the great work and thank you again. ”
“ When my husband got hit by a drunk driver in our 2024!! Mazda, we worried we wouldn't be able to stay with the model we had. Worried because we went all the way to NH to a friend who sold cars but Sam was able to hook us up same day‼️ He was able to not only get us into the Same model upgraded a year but took our trade in no problem . I'm grateful to have been able to get exactly what we wanted 🙏 🙌 Exactly what we needed . We will always recommend Mazda but we recommend Paul Blouin in Augusta because they'll help you & make you feel like family 🫶 Thanks Sam‼️✨️🔥 ”
“ Being able to use a loaner vehicle was nice. The mechanic who worked on my car called me when he had completed what I was there for to ask me about other things I may want, before doing any further work. He didn't push any extra things on me. He was able to fix the uneven wear on my brakes, saving me from an expensive break job. Everyone I encountered had good attitudes and were incredibly helpful. I will absolutely return there when my vehicle needs maintenance. ”
“ Shout out to Paul Blouin Mazda and Gen. Mgr. Brandon O'Clair! Your service team went above and beyond for me and were excellent to deal with. I went in for an oil change, inspection & tire rotation. They found a 3 inch piece of metal embedded in my tire. Being an all wheel drive, that means at least 2 new tires if not 4 (low profile) = $$$. 🤦♀️my tires have less than 12,000 miles on them. They came up with an option for me and sent me away smiling, knowing I'd dodged a bullet & a big tire bill and having a little renewed faith in humanity. They are super thorough, great to deal with and a big reason that I'm on my 3rd Mazda from them. If you're in the market, go see them and tell them I sent you ♡ ”
“ Sam was great! No pressure, listened to find the right fit and worked to get the best deal! ”
“ I recently bought a Mazda 3 from Paul Blouin Mazda. The experience was very easy with absolutely no pressure from the salesperson, Sam. From driving to financing, every step was professional. I am very happy with my experience and encourage you to check them out when you are looking for a new car. ”
“ Brandon and Paul are fantastic. Got a brand new CX-50 at a very fair price with a very generous trade in value. No pressure tactics, very easy to try the cars I wanted. Negotiating price with Brandon is a breeze. No hassle paperwork, very flexible on communication, and nothing shady after agreed to price. He took the time to show me EVERYTHING about how the car works after purchasing. Your first service is complimentary and you get free loaner cars for life! Highly recommend to anyone looking for fantastic cars at unbeatable prices. I will certainly be purchasing from Paul Blouin Mazda again as soon as I have the chance! ”
“ Buying your first vehicle in the US, especially for new immigrants can be nerve-wracking! After a not so good first impression and experience visiting another Mazda dealership, a friend referred us to Paul Blouin Mazda, where their friend had a wonderful service. And true enough, Paul Blouin Mazda did not disappoint! On his first email, Dustin already offered to schedule us for a test drive. After I communicated with Dustin that we live 40 minutes aways from their dealership and don’t have means of transportation, he immediately offered to have a driver pick us up to come take a look at the vehicles and do a test drive! The other Mazda dealership that we went to did not even want us to test drive any vehicle until after knowing which vehicle we will be approved for the Mazda Program. After we submitted all the requirements, Sam took over in processing our application for the Mazda Program. Sam was very thorough in providing all the information that we need over the phone and email. He kept in touch and provided quick and timely updates on the status of our application, and what Mazda Corporate needs. Upon learning that we did not qualify for the Mazda Program due to changes in the requirements, Sam provided us other options and assured us that he will provide all the help he can give us to get the deal done. Sam has been with us every step of the way as evidence of more than 100 email exchanges and numerous phone calls, helping us with all the things required by the credit union and getting the numbers down to make sure we get the car that we want at the lowest out the door price at possible. On the day that we have to go to the dealership to sign the documents and get the car, Sam informed us that all their drivers are unavailable to pick us up and tried his best to book our family an Uber XL, which unfortunately was unsuccessful. To our surprised, Sam has arranged for us to be picked up by none other than his dad, Paul Blouin! We never expected for the owner of the dealership to drive for 1.5 hours to pick us up and bring us to their dealership! Our experience with speaking with Paul during the drive was very positive. He’s very down to earth and made sure our family very comfortable during the ride! He even took the car to the car wash to show it to our kids and they were very excited and happy with the experience! Paul even spent some time taking care of our kids at the dealership providing them food and drinks, and setting up the TV for them to make them comfortable. Sam was very thorough and efficient from the document signing, explaining all the settings and configurations of the car, and helping us in getting our car insurance. He also helped us in downloading and setting up the My Mazda app on our phones and taught us how to use it. Overall, it was such an amazing and unforgettable experience doing business with Sam and Paul Blouin Mazda! Sam, Paul, Dustin and their team really made all the effort to ensure that we get the car that we like stress free! We’re very happy with our CX-90 and very fortunate that we chose to get it from their dealership! We will definitely make sure that we get our next car from them, and refer all our new immigrant friends to their dealership! Thank you for the best service and more power Paul Blouin Mazda! ”
“ Brandon was the best! He was extremely knowledgeable, patient, kind and fun to work with. We love our new CX-90. Thank you so much! ”
“ I want to thank Sam for hooking me up with this new Mazda CX50. Sam made the buying experience super easy, and there was no pressure what so ever. Sam was able to get me an amazing rate and I’m now paying less a month compared to my trade. Once again thank you Sam for a great deal. I will be back for sure! ”
“ No pressure. Experienced sales persons. Clean. ”
“ I came back three years later!! Dustin, thank you so much for another great experience! I love being able to go through the process knowing I can trust the people I am dealing with. You also make the process so easy! I really really appreciate you! Just a wonderful atmosphere altogether as I watched Brandon and Sam work with families as well. Still more than 5 stars from me!! ”
“ Top notch dealership! Fantastic, knowledgeable staff and convenient location. Would buy from them again! ”
“ Had the pleasure of dealing with Brandon O'Clair and let me just say it was unlike any other experience I've ever had purchasing a vehicle. We had just come from the dealership nextdoor (which was not an enjoyable one) and only wanted to test-drive a Mazda. Brandon told me in minutes what he could give me for my trade and ran the numbers... absolutely zero pressure. We drove off a couple hours later with our dream car!! Thanks Brandon ”
“ Great shopping experience on our search for a new Mazda. Couldn't speak higher of the staff and transparency of this dealership - this level of service only starts at the top! ”
“ Purchased a new vehicle. Process was done in a short period of time. Very professional, courteous. Sales listened to my concerns and met all. Very good experience. ”
“ They made buying my first car a great experience. Sam Blouin made sure I was getting the best deal possible and made buying my first car easy. He never missed a step. They really do go above and beyond with their customer service and I highly recommend them!! ”
“ I go here to dream about my next motorcycle. Make sure you go down the stairs to see the used bikes. Sometimes there's quite a selection. ”
“ Never called back ”
“ I’ve had nothing but positive experiences with the Paul Blouin service department. They’re top notch, always going above and beyond. Highly recommend!! ”
