2019 MAZDA CX-5 Complaints

The screen in the middle of Mazda vehicle starts selecting menu, change the radio station or selects/plays whatever it likes. It suddenly activates some functions on its own. Most likely similar issue as in this document - https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2019/MC-10164268-0001.pdf This is dangerous for the driver as the automatic change in the screen and menu items distracts the driver which may cause accident and put life in danger. This is generic problem and searching on the internet, lot of people are suffering with this issue. When the issue started last year, we thought this is something random occurrence and will go away by itself but with the time, this has gone worse. Now looking in the internet we came to know this is actually an ongoing issue.

While driving the vehicle at highway speed, the check engine light came on at just under 28,000 miles. I took the vehicle to AutoZone, who did not come up with a code; however, I took it to the dealer with engine code P0126, which stands for insufficient coolant temperature. Apparently, there is a flaw in the coolant control valve, but the part is on backorder until June or July. In the meantime, my gas mileage is awful, my car takes forever to warm up, and the engine performance is awful and the vehicle is not safe to drive at highway speeds. This really merits a recall and a whole lot more attention from a company that was Consumer Reports most reliable brand for 2022. I am really disappointed with Mazda and how they have handled this situation and they have permanently lost my business over this.

The contact owns a 2019 Mazda CX-5. The contact stated while driving at approximately 75 MPH with the sunroof opened in the vent position, and the rear windows and driver's side and passenger windows opened, the contact stated he heard an abnormal sound like a gunshot and the sunroof glass shattered, and pieces of glass entered the cabin. The contact pulled over and observed that a hole measuring approximately 12 inches by 6 inches had opened in the sunroof. The contact noticed that the glass surrounding the hole had an uplifted edge of approximately 2 inches around the hole. The contact had not taken the vehicle to a local dealer or independent mechanic. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 48,000.

The Infotainment System has consistent "ghost touching". Not only is this a distraction while trying to drive it is changing the safety settings and display settings available in within the system such as ADAS settings and MPH\KMH speedometer options. Other less-severe options are consistently changed as well such as navigation volume etc. The problem is easy to reproduce, just need to start the car. I just paid $300 for a full replacement of the screen from Mazda, along with an update and the problem not only persists but is worse. The problem got progressively worse but there were no light indicators etc.

The contact owns a 2019 Mazda CX-5. The contact stated became aware of engine oil on his driveway. The contact stated that while driving and coming to a stop, there was an abnormal oil burning odor inside the vehicle. The contact stated the check engine warning was illuminated. The contact had taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that there was an oil leak coming from the cylinder head and determined that the cylinder head needed to be replaced. The independent mechanic researched online and related the oil leak failure to Mazda Service Alert Number: SA-031/21 (Engine and Engine Cooling). The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 89,000.

the infotainment system is acting up and making its own selections, if im sitting parked and my call history is up it will sometimes click a random number and start calling that number. It will scroll and make random selections on screen

I drove my wife to work and noticed that the car was stuttering and had weak acceleration. I parked in my garage and a couple of hours later returned to see a massive oil leak on my driveway, I had to tow the car to the nearest dealership where a cracked cylinder was diagnosed. There was also a terrible burning smell. If the massive leak happened on an acceleration ramp or on the highway there could have been an accident.

My vehicle appears to have what is known as the "ghost touch". The radio ends up clicking random things, skips songs, goes to the maps and zooms all the way in. This puts the driver at risk if they are distracted by what is happening to their radio. I informed the dealer, but they thought it just needed a software update. The issue continued even after the update that I had to pay for. Warning lamps to not appear, and it happens at random times, it's never consistent. It's been happening for a while now, probably over a year, and months after I had purchased it as a used car.

Known Issue. Mazda has issued a TSB, but will not extend Warranty or pay for needed repairs. Infotainment Screen changes and Beeps by itself. Screen is peeling as well. 2019 Mazda CX-5 Infotainment Technical Service Bulletins TSB Number: SA-041-22C NHTSA Number: 10226930 TSB Date: November 22, 2022 Date Added to File: December 1, 2022 Failing Component: Equipment:Electrical:Infotainment Summary: Some customers may complain about infotainment center display: * ghost touch * DTC b108e:04 may be stored (touch screen operates by itself) * surface peeling * DTC b108e:04 may be stored * spider cracks * white dots

My 2019 Mazda CX-5 automatically applied the brakes while the car was on cruise control traveling at 65 mph on a highway, and there wasn't a car or any object in front of me or to either side of my car. The car applied the brakes firmly and brought the speed down quickly and dangerously. I quickly depressed the accelerator to get the car back to highway speed to avoid a rear-end collision. This issue has happened 3 times in the past 2 weeks, all while traveling at highway speeds on cruise control for an extended period of time (hours). I believe this is the same issue with the Mazda Smart City Brake Support system that led to a recall of 2019-2020 Mazda-3 vehicles. My Mazda CX-5 is out of warranty and the dealer stated it is not covered by the recall.
