Structure, visibility/wiper
09/10/2025
The driver side mirror vibrates at speeds above 65 miles per hour especially with windy conditions. Went to the dealer they replaced the mirror assembly with the issue still remaining. Mazda answer is that is common in CX 5 models. It is a safety issue as it really limits visibility for vehicles behind.

Vehicle Speed Control

1.What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The vehicle exhibits trembling while idling and previously showed erratic behavior during hard stops. Possible issue with the engine control software or powertrain system. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. 2.How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The trembling at idle and inconsistent braking behavior compromise vehicle stability and driver control, especially in heavy traffic or emergency situations. These symptoms raise serious concerns about a potential underlying defect. Mazda has issued recent software-related recalls involving loss of drive power—though not for my model—which heightens my fear that similar risks may exist. I should not have to wait for a catastrophic failure or breakdown to validate my safety concerns. By then, it may be too late. I do not feel safe driving the vehicle. 3.Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a deale...

Power Train, service Brakes
08/12/2025
I pulled the car into garage, and realized it's not inside enough. So I moved the car forward, but forgot to place the shift to P position. With the shift in D position, I shut off the engine, opened the door, ready to get out. I did not notice the car was moving backward, until the open door hit the garage frame. I file a claim with my insurance, had the front door replaced in a local body shop. I confirmed that in D position, with engine shut off, the car can move freely in my drive way. I did have this issue in my other two cars, I occasionally forgot put the shift from D position to P position, but the car did not move. This issue - a car can move freely without driver's awareness - is a serious and dangerous issue. If this happens in the street, a serious crash can occur. The car manufacturer should figure a way to prevent this from happening when the shift is in D position and engine is shut off.

Critical Malfunction- causing parking brake malfunction, anti lock brake system malfunction, Dynamic stability control malfunction, Disabled blind spot monitoring, Keyless entry system malfunction, Front brake / and obstruction warning disabled, Keyless entry system malfunction, Air Bag system and seat belt pre-tensioner system malfunction. Vehicle not starting./dead. Sat at dealership service where purchased for 6 days saying they could not test bc they did not have a battery tester- Magically when I complained they found one- and say everything checks out ok. Vehicle is not safe!!!! If this malfunction happened while driving I could have been killed. The dealership refuses to anything g but say it’s OK- and it’s not a lemon. I cannot put my life at risk and they will not guarantee it will not happen again- or say why it happened- other than check g the battery.

Visibility
01/04/2025
The windshield on our new 2025 Mazda CX-5 is defective. Objects viewed through the windshield are distorted, to include the Active Driver’s Display (colloquially known as the HUD). Drivers and passengers are impeded from clearly seeing and focusing on objects visible throughout the front of the vehicle. Objects to include road signs are distorted, lose clarity which result in unnecessary and dangerous distractions. This problem significantly degrades the vehicle’s usability, safety and ultimate enjoyment.
