Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“A few weeks ago my keyless system began malfunctioning. When I push the car off button and go to get out of car a warning beep gets my attention that the dash is still on. The only way I have found to get everything to shut off completely is to restart the car and put it in reverse or drive and I may have to do this several times before everything shuts down.”
NHTSA complaint #11102880, filed 2018-06, 80,000 miles“My 2014 CX-5 will not completely shut off. After putting into park and pushing the button to turn off, the engine will turn off but the aux power to the radio and dash do not turn off. I had to turn the car back on and put the car in gear and back to park multiple times before it will turn off completely.”
NHTSA complaint #11240581, filed 2019-07, 113,000 miles“When I put my car in park and go to turn the car off, it won't turn off. I then have to put it in reverse and forcefully push forward and left (sometimes 5+ times) and then eventually it will allow me to turn off the car. I looked it up on the internet and I saw that there were many others having the same problem. My car is only 4 years old and this has been happening for the past year.”
NHTSA complaint #11048396, filed 2017-11, 60,000 miles“When pressing the start/stop button, my ignition does not turn off although the shifter is in the p position and the engine shits off normally. If I turn the engine back on, jiggle the shifter, and push the stop button again, it is usually successful. It appears there is a problem with a worn switch unit. This is a safety hazard and something must be done. It is an ongoing concern, not an isolated incident.”
NHTSA complaint #11101407, filed 2018-06, 95,000 miles“Complained to Mazda that my driver side window rattles when driviing and driver side mirror shakes at 50 miles per hour. They told me there is no recall. Also I got a stress crack in my windshied started from bottom of windshield in the middle and turned right. The car was parked and in my driveway when this happened”
