2024 MAZDA CX-90 Complaints

The contact owns a 2024 Mazda CX-90. The contact received notifications of NHTSA Campaign Numbers: 24V814000 (Electrical System, Structure) and 24V815000 (Power Train, Engine and Engine Cooling); and parts were available. The contact stated that upon taking the vehicle to the dealer, he was informed that the manufacturer would not cover the cost of the repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue and confirmed with the contact that as the second owner of the vehicle, he was not entitled to have the cost of the repair covered by the manufacturer. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.

The vehicle displayed "Engine Malfunction have your vehicle inspected" on the dash along with orange lights. The vehicle would drive but without warning would not come up to speed. This caused an unsafe situation entering the interstate where the vehicle was below the minimum speed until we could exit the highway. There was no warning of the low power and inability to operate normally. This was a known problem and the vehicle had all of the recalls already performed. Dealer states there is a problem with the low pressure fuel pump. I am not confident the problem will be solved.

Hybrid battery failure. Battery issue can cause car to lock up while driving. Dealer service department indicate they have at least 6 vehicles with this same issue. The vehicle has not been inspected by other than the dealership service department that I am aware of. While driving to the dealership for a routine oil change, the car made a quick odd noise then 3 alerts came on said Hybrid system malfunction have vehicle inspected, engine malfunction, system malfunction. Dealer inspected vehicle determined needed a hybrid batter replacement, indicated they could not say vehicle was safe to drive as it could just stop working. Considering they already have a number of cars with same issues in the shop I am concerned this could be a defect problem in many vehicles.

I've noticed ever since the car was new that it had a poor sense of straight ahead especially at freeway speeds. When the lane departure chime was active it would sound constantly{has since been turned off but lighted markers in gauge cluster still fire all the time}. When I take my attention off road for a second to adjust fan speed or temp, the car is close to going into the other lane. Lots of concentration necessary. I've mentioned this to one dealer who checked and adjusted alignment with no improvement and another dealer said they've had other owners of Mazda CX-90's voice the same complaint. There's also a long term test in Motor Trend on a CX-90 that complained about the same issue. I feel there is something wrong here that could be a potential safety problem.

Issue Summary: Since December 27, 2024, my vehicle has experienced a hybrid malfunction and leakage issue three times. Each time this occurs, the vehicle becomes completely inoperable and cannot move, requiring a tow truck to take it to the dealership. Since December 27, 2024, my car has been in the shop four times, yet the issue persists. This raises serious reliability and safety concerns, as the vehicle can suddenly become unusa

Received Hybrid Battery Malfunction and Electrical Leakage Detection alerts two weeks ago. Dealer has not been able to fix. First they said it was the water heater, then they said my radiator was leaking and I need a new one. Estimated 4 additional weeks for repair.

Steering sticks while driving. Then, all of a sudden releases, and this causes a jerk in the steering and vehicle movement in the direction of steering. Vehicle recall 6524A/Jan 18, 2024 for "increase in steering effort" was completed in April 2024. This issue is very apparent at interstate highway cruising speeds to just maintain staying in traffic lane. Worried that steering may continue sticking and not be able to maneuver vehicle to drive safely avoid an accident. Turned off the vehicle lane assist feature to diagnose the issue, the issue still exists with the lane assist feature turned off.

The wires under the hood were chewed up by rodents. The cars wires are insulated with a soy based wiring coating. My car is at the dealership for repair and deemed undrivable. This is so unfair because the car is new and only has 6200 miles on it. I am now facing insurance deductible. The dealer says the vehicle is undrivable because it is a safety issue and the engine might catch fire

The vehicle does not slow down or reduce speed until the brake pedal is pressed at least 1/5 of the way down when using cruise control. The brake light turns on, but the car continues to accelerate.

Blind spot monitors alert for things like light fog. I cannot trust a system that thinks water vapor is going to be an issue while turning or merging.
