MAZDA Complaints

SOFT BRAKE PEDAL. ABS BRAKES NOT FUNCTIONING. STABILITY CONTROL DISABLED. BRAKING PROPORTIONING NOT FUNCTIONING. ALL RELATED TO ABS MODULE ISSUE THAT MAZDA IS AWARE OF BUT WON?T RECALL. SEVERELY AFFECTS THE SAFE OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE AS THE STOPPING POWER AND STABILITY ARE DECREASED WHEN ABS UNIT FAULT OCCURS. PROHIBITIVELY EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE AND IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY, EVEN ON LOW-MILEAGE CARS. SERVICE BULLETIN HAS EXISTED FOR YEARS AND NEEDS TO BE ELEVATED TO RECALL. *TR

WHILE PARKING AT A VERY SLOW SPEED, THE MAZDA SUDDENLY AND ON ITS OWN ACCELERATED AND RAN INTO A FIXED OBJECT. THE VEHICLE WAS OFF THE ROAD IN A GRASSY PARKING AREA WHEN IT HAPPENED.. . *TR

THE DASH ON MY VEHICLE HAS MELTED AND BECOME SHINY AND HARD TO SEE WHEN DRIVING. IT APPEARS THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND MAZDA HAS "EXTENDED" THE WARRANTY ON THE DASH, HOWEVER SINCE MY CAR HAS A "BRANDED TITLE" FROM HAIL DAMAGE THIS EXCLUDES MY VEHICLE. ALSO THE ISSUE IS OUTSIDE THE 10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUES AND IS LISTED ON THE MAZDA WEBSITE. MULTIPLE PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. AFTER CONTACTING MAZDA THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THE DASH. SINCE THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND SAFETY HAZARD I BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE A RECALL VS THEM EXTENDING THE WARRANTY TO SAVE COSTS ON NOT HAVING TO REPLACE CERTAIN VEHICLES.

THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SLOW AND STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO SANDY SANSING MAZDA LOCATED AT 6105 PENSACOLA BLVD, PENSACOLA, FL 32505, WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE THROTTLE VALVE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

IN JULY 2019 (APPROXIMATELY 2 MONTHS AFTER DELIVERY) MY 2019 MAZDA CX-5 BEGAN TO DRIVE ROUGHLY AT SLOW SPEEDS- SPECIFICALLY SPEEDS 15 MPH OR BELOW. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT COAST (EVEN DOWNHILL) AND WOULD SEEM TO SLIP OUT OF GEAR (THIS VEHICLE HAS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION). MORE SPECIFICALLY, THE VEHICLE WOULD BUCK AND LURCH ON IT'S OWN WITHOUT ENGAGING THE ACCELERATOR OR BRAKE. THIS WAS HAPPENING GOING UPHILL, DOWNHILL AND ON FLAT GRADE. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND AT THEIR REQUEST TOOK AN EMPLOYEE FOR A DRIVE SO THEY COULD FEEL IT. THE EMPLOYEE DID FEEL IT, TOLD THE SERVICE MANAGER, WHO THEN TOLD ME THAT, "THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO DRIVE LIKE THAT." HE SAID HE DROVE AROUND ANOTHER VEHICLE ON THE LOT THAT IS THE SAME MODEL AND YEAR, AND THAT IT PERFORMED THE SAME. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT THE SAME PERSON WHO WAS IN THE CAR TO EXPERIENCE HOW MY CAR WAS DRIVING. I PERSONALLY KNOW TWO OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE SAME EXACT YEAR AND MODEL CX-5. I SHARED MY EXPERIENCE WITH BOTH OWNERS- THEY BOTH TOLD ME THAT THEIR CARS DO NOT PERFORM IN THAT WAY. ADDITIONALLY, I DROVE ONE OF THOSE VEHICLE AND THAT ONE DID NOT PERFORM IN THE SAME WAY THAT MINE DOES. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS ISSUE IS BEING BRUSHED OFF. THERE IS NO WAY THAT MAZDA WOULD PURPOSELY DESIGN A CAR SO THAT IT JERKS, LURCHES, AND BUCKS AT SLOW SPEEDS. I HAVE READ REVIEWS ON ONLINE MESSAGE BOARDS WHERE OTHERS DO COMPLAIN OF SIMILAR EXPERIENCES, WHICH IS EVEN MORE CONCERNING. THIS POSES A SAFETY ISSUE FOR THE DRIVER, PASSENGERS, AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD WHO MAY BE DRIVING NEARBY. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT AND WILL BE TAKING THE CAR BACK THIS COMING MONDAY TO TRY AND FURTHER ADDRESS THIS ISSUE, BUT FELT IT NECESSARY TO FILE HERE IN THE CASE THAT FURTHER ACTION NEEDS TO BE TAKEN AT A LARGER SCALE SINCE IT APPEARS AS IF OTHERS, THOUGH NOT ALL, 2019 MAZDA CX-5 OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME. *TR

THERE IS A CRACK IN THE CORNER OF THE MAZDA CONNECT CENTER DISPLAY. I BOUGHT THIS CAR CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED LAST YEAR AND THE CRACK WAS ALREADY THERE. *TR

I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH GETTING IN MY CAR AND FINDING SPIDERS AND SPIDER WEBS. I HAVE BEEN BITTEN BY THEM AND SO HAS MY FIANC. I GOT IN THE CAR YESTERDAY AND A WEB WAS COMING FROM THE AIR CONDITIONING VENT TO THE GEAR HANDLE. *TR

2019 MAZDA CX-9 SOUL RED, PAINT CHIPPING UNDER 30,000 MILES. NORMAL CAR DRIVING THIS SHOULD NOT CHIP. NOT SURE IF THEIR IS A DEFECT IN THE PAINT.

DRIVERS SEAT FEELS LIKE SPRINGS OR COILS PUSHING ON MY TAIL BONE AND LUMPS THAT HURT THIGH PART OF LEG. FEELS LIKE SOMETHING COULD BE LOOSE AS THE LUMPS GO FROM TAIL BONE, WHOLE BOTTOM LIKE A BAR ACROSS SEAT TO THIGHS TO JUST TAIL BONE. THIS IS THERE ALL THE TIME FROM JUST GETTING INTO CAR AND GETS WORSE BECAUSE IT REALLY IS PUSHING ON BOTTOM. SEEMS LIKE SEATING COIL OR FRAME COULD BE PROBLEM. I DID RETURN TO DEALER BUT NO ONE THERE COULD FEEL IT. IT IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. NO PICTURES AS NOT VISIBLE HAPPENS ONLY WHEN SEATING ON IT. THIS PROBLEM COULD CAUSE INJURY TO MY SPINE/BACK. *TR
