“I am constantly receiving a “Low Battery Voltage Warning” for reasons as simple as leaving my door or trunk open for 10 minutes. I never leave my car in accessory mode to play music or anything that might drain the battery. It happens several times a month for no reason. I have not had it die on me yet, but I don’t know if it’s actually a low battery or software glitch.”

“The brand new vehicle was sold to me on 2/23/21 with an open safety recall. This recall was finally addressed on 5/21/21. At no time did Mazda north American operations formally notifying me of the safety record. 1) how could this happen? 2) has this shortcoming been remedied? 3) Will I receive formal notifications of future safety recalls on a timely basis?”

“Low oil indicator came on after only1,800 miles since an oil change, I added a quart of oil and then the light came on again after only 1,000 miles. Asked the service department at the dealership and they said there was an issue with the oil and the turbo system and that it would be a three day repair. I was advised in the meantime to take a couple of extra quarts of oil if I was going to doing any traveling this summer.”

NHTSA complaint #11544093, filed 2023-09

“I have just about 8800 miles on my Mazda CX-30 Turbo after a year and 5 months. Suddenly had my low oil engine light come on. I pulled over and the oil is barely on the tip of the oil stick. My last oil change, which was also my first, was completed at 4937 miles from the Mazda dealership.”
