A SMALL CHIP WAS ON FOUND ON THE FRONT OF THE WINDSHIELD AND I WAS NOTIFIED BY THE DEALER THAT THE CHIP WAS SMALL AND THAT THEY THE REPAIR WOULD FIX IT WITH RESIN. THE NEXT DAY A CRACK AROUND 18 INCHES FORMED ALONG THE WINDSHIELD. . AFTER THE CRACK WAS FORMED THEY STATED THEY WEREN'T RESPONSIBLE FOR THE WINDSHIELD AFTER THE REPAIR. THIS IS A DEFECT IN THE QUALITY OF THE WINDSHIELD MAZDA WON'T HOLD THEMSELVES RESPONSIBLE FOR. THIS NEW WINDSHIELD HAS BEEN QUOTED FOR $500 TO REPLACE. *TR

I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE HYDRAULIC BELT TENSIONER WAS LEAKING. THEY QUOTED ME $400 FOR REPAIR AND STATED THIS IS A WEAR ITEM YET THE MANUAL AND USER GUIDE PROVIDED BY MAZDA DO NOT STATE THAT THIS IS REQUIRED TO BE REPLACED ONLY INSPECTED. MY CAR HAS LESS THEN 46,000 MILES AND THIS PART WAS NEARLY AT THE POINT OF FAILURE. IF THIS PART FAILS AND THE BELT GETS TOO LOOSE OR SNAPS, YOUR CAR WILL SHUT DOWN. ESSENTIALLY, IF THAT BELT BREAKS, YOUR ALTERNATOR WILL STOP CHARGING THE BATTERY, THE DASH WILL LIGHT UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE, AND THE CAR WILL SPUTTER TO A COMPLETE STOP. NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT THE BELT ALSO TURNS THE WATER PUMP. SO WHILE THE CAR COULD SHUT DOWN IN ORDER TO AVOID OVERHEATING. MAZDA HAS STATED THEY WILL NOT COVER THIS AS IT'S OUT OF WARRANTY FOR A WHAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A DEFECTIVE PART. IF YOU HEAR KNOCKING SOUNDS FROM YOUR ENGINE GET YOUR VEHICLE INSPECTED ASAP!

AT 30,000 MILES, BUT OUT OF WARRANTY THE DRIVER'S DAY TIME RUNNING LIGHT STARTED FLICKERING AND AT TIMES WAS COMPLETELY OUT. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT THE ENTIRE LIGHT MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THE PART WAS$1000.00. DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT FLICKERING OCCURS WHILE DRIVING & WHEN CAR IS PARKED WITH MOTOR RUNNING.

THE DRIVER'S HEADLIGHT HALO FOR THE DAYLIGHT RUNNING LIGHTS WAS HAVING ISSUES AT 30,939. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AND IT WOULD HAVE COST $1,000. NOW THE PASSENGER SIDE IS HAVING ISSUES AT 33,183 MILES AND NOW THAT IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY THE CURRENT QUOTE IS $1,200. A THREE YEAR OLD CAR UNDER 36,000 MILES SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THESE ISSUES, NOR SHOULD THEY BE ALMOST $2,500 IN REPAIRS. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. I NOTICED IT WHILE DRIVING AND SEEING THE LESS BRIGHT REFLECTION COMING OFF THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AT A STOP LIGHT FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE. I SPOKE WITH SHAVON ON THE HELP LINE AND SHE WAS EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL AND COURTEOUS ANSWERING MY QUESTIONS (*****)

MY WIFES CAR IS JUST OVER 3 YEARS OLD, COUPLE MONTH OUT OF WARRANTY OF COARSE HOWEVER THE EMERGENCY PARKING BRAKE LIGHT FOR NO REASON COMES ON AND BLINKS WHEN IT DOES THIS IT ALSO BLINK THE RED LIGHT ON THE DASH. IT WAS ONLY DOING THIS AT START UP HOWEVER NOW IT SEEM TO DO IT AT RANDOM EVEN WHILE DRIVING WHICH IS VERY SCARY TO THINK YOUR BRAKES COULD ACTUALLY LOCKUP. CALLED MAZDA USA, AND THEY SAID WELL IT MUST BE DIAGNOSED BY ONE OF THERE DEALERSHIP AND EVEN THEN WOULD NOT PROBABLY CONSIDER COVERING ANY PART OF THE BILL WHICH CAN RUN UP TO $1000.00 FOR THE EPB MODULE. THIS CAR HAS BEEN 100% CARED FOR ALL RECORDS BARELY 21.000 MILES, THIS IS THE 3RD FAULTY ISSUE OF SOMETHING BREAKING ON THIS CAR-1ST- ONE OF THOSE EXPENSIVE LED LIGHTS BURNED OUT, 2ND ELECTRIC SEAT MOTOR BURN OUT,AND NOW THIS MODULE AND THE CUSTOMER REP STATES THEY ARE NOT AT LIBERTY TO DISCUSS IF THIS WAS IN FACT A PROBLEM AND SAFETY ISSUE .PLEASE BE SAFE AND CAREFUL WHEN YOU PURCHASING YOUR MAZDA CX-5

ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE (EPB) CONTROL MODULE FAILURE: ON JUNE 19 AND 20 OF 2019 MY 2016 CX-5 WITH ONLY 18,000 MILES EXPERIENCED A PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE FUNCTION. WHEN I WOULD LIFT THE EPB SWITCH TO SET THE PARKING BRAKE THE INDICATOR LIGHT WOULD START FLASHING AND A WARNING SIGN ((P!)) WOULD SHOW UP ON THE DASH DISPLAY. THE MAZDA DEALER DID A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK AND DETERMINED THE EPB CONTROL MODULE NEEDED REPLACING. $765 LATER I WAS BACK ON THE ROAD. *AS THIS APPEARS TO BE AN INHERENT PROBLEM WITH 2016 CX-5S WITH VINS BELOW 781350 (SEE TSB 04-005/16 OF 08/05/2016 ATTACHED.) MY VIN IS 654830. ALSO, HTTPS://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/MAZDA/CX-5/2016/BRAKES/SERVICE_BRAKES.SHTML SHOWS A NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS STARTING IN 2016 ABOUT THIS SAFETY ISSUE. I ALSO SAW SOME COMMENTS THAT A FAULTY EPB COULD CAUSE THE BRAKES TO LOCK UP UNEXPECTEDLY. THIS WOULD BE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE IF THAT WERE TO HAPPEN IN TRAFFIC. THERE WERE NUMEROUS OTHER COMMENTS ABOUT THE EPB ISSUE FOR THE 2016 CX-5. I FEEL THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL ITEM IN 2016. THIS IS A LIFE SAFETY CONCERN. YOUR CONSIDERATION OF THIS CONCERN IS APPRECIATED. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED DOCUMENTATION. THANK YOU. *TR *TR 'PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'*JB

DRIVER SIDE LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS BEGAN TO DIM DIRECTLY AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRED, REDUCING DAYTIME VISIBILITY AND THEREFORE INCREASING DRIVING RISK. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN REPORTED FREQUENTLY IN ONLINE FORUMS, AND HAS MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS LOGGED ON THIS SITE. MAZDA SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO RECALL THESE HEADLIGHTS, AS IT IMPOSES A RISK TO ALL ASSOCIATED DRIVERS, AND COSTS THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR THE CONSUMER TO REPAIR AN OBVIOUS MANUFACTURER ERROR.

MY 2016 MAZDA CX5 GRAND TOURING HAS LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS AND HAVE BECOME DIM ON DRIVER SIDE AFTER ONLY 36,620 MILES, I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE THAT THEY ARE JUST OUTSIDE THE 3 YEAR/36K MILE WARRANTY AND THEREFORE NOT COVERED. HE ALSO TOLD ME THAT WHOLE HEADLIGHT UNIT WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED AND WILL COST $1000-1100 (ESTIMATE). MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT MANY OF THESE LED HEADLIGHTS ARE DEFECTIVE AND NUMEROUS OWNERS ARE HAVING SIMILAR ISSUES (HTTPS://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/MAZDA/CX-5/2016/LIGHTS/EXTERIOR_LIGHTING.SHTML)

MANY 2016 MAZDA CX-5S ARE EXPERIENCING FAILURES OF ONE OR BOTH DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS. THESE ARE SEALED BEAM LIGHTS, SO IT COSTS ALMOST $1000 TO REPLACE AND ARE NOT COVERED BY ORIGINAL OR EXTENDED WARRANTY. RUNNING LIGHTS ARE A SAFETY FEATURE - SHOULDN'T THIS BE A RECALL ITEM? MY PASSENGER SIDE WENT OUT AT JUST OVER 37,000 MILES - JUST AFTER THE 3-YEAR / 36,000 MILE WARRANTY, BUT I PURCHASED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. NEITHER COVER THE PROBLEM.

THE LED HALO LIGHT IN THE FRONT HEADLAMPS WENT COMPLETELY OUT ON ONE SIDE AND FLICKERS ON THE OTHER SIDE. THE REPAIR IS $1000 PER SIDE AND ISN'T COVERED BY WARRANTY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND MAZDA KNOWS IT . MULTIPLE PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE AROUND THE SAME TIME. THERE IS A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT AND THERE NEEDS TO BE A SAFETY RECALL. NO ONE CAN OR WILL PAY THAT KIND OF MONEY FOR A LIGHT BULB. THE PROBLEM IS PROLIFIC AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS FLICKERING. DEALERSHIP ADVISED NEEDS REPLACED AT $1100 PLUS FOR ONE. I THOUGHT LEDS LASTED FOR 10 YEARS. VEHICLES ARE BEING DRIVEN IN UNSAFE CONDITIONS BECAUSE OF COST OR ARE UNAWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM. MAZDA SHOULD HAVE TO DO THE RIGHT THING AND STAND BEHIND THIS ISSUE.

PROBLEM WITH BOTH LED RUNNING LIGHTS. ONE IS COMPLETELY OUT AND THE OTHER STRING IS PARTIALLY LIT. MY DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT THIS PROBLEM IS COMMON (CONSISTENT WITH ONLINE COMPLAINT POSTS) BUT THE WARRANTY WILL ONLY COVER IT IF THE MILES ARE UNDER 36,000 MILES...MY CAR'S MILEAGE IS OVER THAT.
