How many miles will a 2007 CX-7 last?
The 422 mileages owners gave run from 1 to 385,000 miles. A quarter are at or under 44,000 miles, half at or under 64,000, three quarters at or under 86,500 and nine in ten at or under 115,000; 69 (16%) came after 100,000 miles, 10 (2%) after 150,000 and 1 (under 1%) after 200,000.
These mileages say when owners reported a problem, not when a 2007 CX-7 wears out. NHTSA's file holds only vehicles whose owners complained; one that ran without a problem never appears in it, so it gives no lifespan and no cutoff, and how a vehicle was maintained matters more than any one odometer reading.
Most of these reports came early in the vehicle's life: 353 of the 422 came at or under 100,000 miles. The 69 past that mark show the 2007 CX-7 still being driven at those mileages, not how many reach them: NHTSA's file counts complaints, not the vehicles on the road.
| Measure | Value |

| 90th percentile | 115,000 miles |

Common problems with the 2007 CX-7
NHTSA's file holds 528 owner complaints on the 2007 Mazda CX-7. Owners named engine cooling most often: 206 complaints, and half of the 200 that list a mileage came after 53,000 miles. A complaint can name more than one component.
| Component (NHTSA category) | Complaints | Listing mileage | Median mileage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Engine And Engine Cooling | 206 | 200 | 53,951 |
| Engine | 112 | 99 | 80,000 |
| Air Bags | 102 | 37 | 93,000 |

| Power Train | 53 | 48 | 62,000 |
Of the 528 complaints, 7 report a crash, 30 report a fire and 10 report an injury (11 people reported injured). These are owners' reports to NHTSA, not findings.
Is the 2007 CX-7 a good year?
Complaint counts cannot say whether the 2007 is a good or a bad CX-7: they rise with how many were sold and how long they have been on the road. They show how the 2007 compares with the other model years in NHTSA's file.
With 528 complaints, the 2007 drew the most of the 6 Mazda CX-7 model years from 2007 to 2012 with 10 or more complaints. The fewest: the 2012 (39).
Recent model years have had less time to collect complaints, so their counts are still growing. No year is ranked by mileage here, because a year's median mileage mostly follows its age.
| Model year | Owner complaints | Listing mileage | Median mileage |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2007 (this page) | 528 | 422 | 64,000 |
| 2008 CX-7 | 192 | 127 | 61,000 |
| 2009 CX-7 | 65 | 34 | 61,993 |
| 2010 CX-7 | 155 | 71 | 65,000 |
| 2011 CX-7 | 154 | 62 | 50,000 |
| 2012 CX-7 | 39 | 16 | 65,000 |

What these figures can and cannot tell you
- Complaints are owners’ reports to NHTSA. NHTSA publishes them without verifying them: a complaint is an allegation, not a defect finding.
- The mileage is what the owner wrote on the complaint; NHTSA does not check it against the odometer.
- The make, model and model year are the ones on the complaint. NHTSA records them as filed, so a few complaints sit under a model year the name was not sold in.
- They are not a lifespan study. The file holds only vehicles whose owners reported a problem, so these figures do not say how long a typical 2007 CX-7 lasts.
- A complaint count rises with how many vehicles were sold and how long they have been on the road, so it is not a rating of the 2007 CX-7.
- Nothing here describes one vehicle: its title brands, odometer readings, accidents and open recalls are in the records for its own VIN.
- 106 of the 528 complaints on the 2007 Mazda CX-7 give no usable mileage (blank, zero, a filler such as 999999, or over 500,000) and are left out of every mileage figure.
- NHTSA name counted: CX-7. NHTSA files some vehicles under several names (a series name and a trim name, for example); this page counts only this one.
- Recall-file name matched: CX-7.
