2024 MAZDA CX-90 Complaints

According to your recall that states: Recall date 2024-01-17 Recall no. 24V022000 Mazda North America Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain 2024 CX-90 vehicles. An assembly issue with the worm gear in the steering system may result in a sudden loss of power steering assist. Recall consequence Loss of power steering assist while driving increases the risk of a crash. My car is not included in this recall according to my VIN number, however my car is doing the same thing described above in the recall. I am requesting that ALL Mazda CX 90 vehicles be in this recall. I took it to the dealership and although there hasn’t been a serious injury yet, there absolutely could be if it is not fixed.

I am reporting multiple ongoing safety and reliability issues with my 2024 Mazda CX-90, which have persisted despite multiple service visits and the vehicle being under warranty. Issues include: •Premature tire wear: OEM Falken tires worn to unsafe levels (approximately 3/32”) before 15,000–20,000 miles •Faulty fuel gauge providing inaccurate readings •Intermittent headlight malfunction, creating visibility and safety concerns •Battery failure requiring replacement at approximately 24,000 miles •Engine malfunction warnings advising the vehicle should not be driven •Loud and abnormal brake noise •Remote start system failure The vehicle has been out of service for an extended period (10+ days), and I no longer feel it is safe or reliable to operate. I am particularly concerned about the overall safety of this vehicle given the pattern of system failures and reports of similar issues. Mazda has not provided a resolution beyond continued repairs, and I have lost confidence in the vehicle’s safety.

Purchased the Mazda Cx-90 2024 and was told that all recalls had been cleared and completed. Steering recall for worm gear and grease had been cleared. Not consistent but when taking turns will have a sudden jerk and increase in steering, especially with left turns. called and reported to Mazda dealership and told by mechanic that this needed to be reported due to an undergoing investigation on recalls that were not truly resolved by Mazda. The vehicle was cleared of inspection in 2024 prior to our purchase. No wrecks but concerned this could lead to one.

On several occasions, both starting from stop and at 45 mph, on harder acceleration while operating as EV in normal mode, the vehicle will start accelerating then SLOW suddenly and hard for a few seconds before engaging the gas engine and accelerating as expected. Dangerous when pulling into traffic or attempting to pass.

At highway speeds, even with lane keeping assist disabled/turned off, if the ADAS is turned on LKA seems to remain active. Steering effort is unpredictable making it difficult to maintain a line through the corner. Effort will suddenly decrease resulting in oversteer. This is particularly dangerous when next to other cars, guardrails, barriers and the like. The behavior is greatly reduced with all ADAS off. This is largely repeatable over the last 18 mos/24,000 miles.

Mazda did the "increase in steering effort" recall 03/18/2024. At 10,455 miles. Campaign 6524A. At that time, we had never experienced problems with the steering. But now, with 33, 627 miles, the steering has a sort of kickback feel when in a sustained turn; either direction. It's most noticeable on an interstate highway on or off ramp. Seems as if it's trying to center the steering wheel to straight ahead. It's a mild, but definite concern. I've contacted Mazda, and the dealer where we have our CX-90 serviced.

I am reporting a serious safety defect involving unintended acceleration in my 2024 Mazda plug-in hybrid vehicle. On multiple occasions, the vehicle has suddenly accelerated without input from me, creating dangerous situations where I nearly lost control and risked a collision. This issue has occurred at least four times since January 2026. I previously brought the vehicle to an authorized Mazda dealership, where it remained for approximately two weeks; however, they were unable to replicate the problem and returned the vehicle, stating no faults were found. Despite this, the unintended acceleration continues to occur intermittently. I have attempted to follow up with both the dealership and Mazda corporate without receiving a response. This ongoing issue poses a significant safety risk to myself, my passengers, and others on the road.

The car had a recall repair to the steering system done due to it being sticky. But the issue has coma back again while driving on ramps and curvy roads. The steering requires significantly more effort and also has a feel of a ratchet. It also feels like a ratchet, when moving very slow and making tight turns. The car also had a recall battery replacement done for the MHEV battery and now the problem is back again within a few months and it shows "Hybrid system failed" and "Engine malfunction".

The 2024 Mazda CX-90 has a steering issue. The steering wheel sticks and is jumpy when turning. I took it to the dealer and demonstrated the issue by driving slowly, turning the wheel, releasing it and watching the car continue to turn while the wheel remained in the position I had left it.This anomaly was easily overcome by applying reverse steering pressure or by accelerating the vehicle. After inspection by the Mazda tech at Crown Mazda in Holland, Mi. the work summary stated in part:"This is a design matter, and not an actual problem. No problem found".

The service brake system on my 2024 Mazda CX-90 produces a loud, high-pitched squeaking noise during normal low-speed braking, including when stopping at traffic lights, reversing, and parking. The issue has been present and occurs daily under normal driving conditions. The brake pads and rotors are available for inspection upon request. The squeaking reduces my confidence in braking performance and causes me to alter my braking behavior, particularly in stop-and-go traffic and when braking near pedestrians. In a vehicle used daily for family transportation, unreliable or degraded brake performance puts my safety and the safety of my passengers and other road users at risk. The problem has been reproduced and confirmed by an authorized Mazda dealership. On February 25, 2026, I brought the vehicle to Gunther Mazda for this issue. The dealer attempted to address the brake noise at no charge but acknowledged this is a known issue related to the brake pad material and stated no permanent repair is currently available. A copy of the repair receipt from this visit is available. I also contacted Mazda Motor of America directly. A case manager was assigned and confirmed the issue is known across the CX-90 model. Mazda offered a $250 service credit but provided no repair or resolution. Mazda issued Service Alert SA-016/24 (Brake Noise, Judder and Dragging Diagnosis and Servicing) acknowledging brake noise, judder, and dragging on the CX-90 and other models. Despite this bulletin, the dealer repair attempt has not resolved the issue. There are no warning lamps or dashboard messages associated with this condition. The squeaking began at low mileage and has persisted continuously since first noticed. The issue is not intermittent; it occurs with regularity during routine braking.
