2021 MAZDA CX-30 Complaints

My car is burning a quart of oil every 1500 miles. I have taken it to the dealer three times. They say that they know about the problem but don't have a fix. I am afraid that the engine could seize up during driving, causing a accident.

Driving home from work today I got a "low engine oil level" alert/warning. First time this has happened. I have approx. 15,500 miles on my vehicle and it was serviced on 3/22/22 (11,828 miles). That service included a full oil and filter change. I see it has been noted that there is an oil leak with this particular vehicle but Mazda has not been able to figure out what is causing it. Just wanted it to be reported

The windshield in my 2021 CX30 had a distorted view on the passenger side of vehicle. Took it in to dealership who confirmed that there was obvious distortion in the windshield. Windshield was replaced and the new windshield has the same issue. Mazda is now saying that it is "normal" to have some distortion on this particular model and they will not replace the windshield again.

Low engine oil light came on at 8990 miles. Bought vehicle brand new. Has occurred before with this same vehicle. Excessive oil consumption is a known issue with this make/model

Low engine oil light came on at 4600 miles. Brand new vehicle. Excessive consumption of oil known issue with this make/model

Randomly accelerated on its own; burns oil- low oil levels twice in 6 months; randomly says cruise control is available under 25 mph when car is traveling at highway speeds; the unlock and lock functions randomly fail; lift gate randomly opens; alarm system randomly goes off; TERRIBLE fuel economy (18-21 mpg)

Low engine oil pressure light came on forcing me to stop driving the vehicle. Upon investigation, engine oil level was a full quart low of oil, despite no leaks and only having 8000 miles.

I have the 2.5 liter turbocharged engine in my CX-30. It currently has approximately 18,000 miles after a little over a year of ownership. So far I have had to put in 3 quarts of oil in that time. The engine/low oil indicator comes on about every 4,000 miles. When I check the oil, it shows that it is down a quart. I have taken it in for regular service (oil and filter, tire rotation) twice now, and have brought this to the attention of the service advisor who tells me that this is normal for turbo engines. I disagree with this assessment. I will bring it up again later this week when it goes in for its third service. No new car should consume oil at the rate this one does. I have also observed blue smoke from the exhaust on start-up. I owned another turbo Mazda model a few years ago that did not do this. I have found what appears to be a technical service bulletin from Mazda regarding all turbocharged 2021 models built prior to September 2021. (TSB-01-012-21) My greatest concern is that this will only become worse and end up causing major damage to the engine and/or make the car unsafe to drive.

The contact owns a 2021 Mazda CX-30. The contact stated that the low engine oil warning light was illuminated. The contact stated that the app used for alerting vehicle failure also notified the contact of the failure. The failure occurred twice. The dealer was contacted and informed her that it was a known issue however, there was no recall. The contact had not taken the vehicle to the dealer. The vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage 3,100.

While driving, Low Engine Oil light illuminated. Vehicle has 9968 miles at time of incident and had one oil change at 5873 miles. So in the span of 4095 miles, engine had burned enough oil that none was showing on dipstick at time of incident. Vehicle was taken to dealership where it was confirmed that there were no leaks and the engine was consuming oil at a rapid rate. Mazda has issued a bulletin to dealerships concerning this issue, so the company is aware a problem exists with this engine. Had the oil level decreased to a low enough level, the engine could have feasibly failed, which could have resulted in a dangerous situation if it happened on the highway or in heavy traffic. Mazda currently has no fix and encourages that oil be added when necessary. Given the unpredictable frequency of the oil consumption, this does not feel like a safe solution, putting the onus entirely on the owner.
