“While driving at a speed just under 45 mph, my Mazda CX-70 suddenly displayed and chimed “Hybrid System Malfunction. Have Vehicle Inspected.“. This warning startled me because I am familiar with issues since I had briefly owned a CX-90 PHEV the first year this model came out and it had the same exact problem. I discovered that this issue carries serious safety concerns and ended up convincing the dealer to swap the vehicle for a CX-90 inline 6 gas only model after hours of pleading. …”
NHTSA complaint #11740990, filed 2026-05“Vehicle Information I am reporting multiple persistent safety-related defects in my 2025 Mazda CX-70 that began immediately after purchase and continue despite repeated service visits, software updates (including MSP66 on July 9, 2026), and good-faith repair attempts. These defects substantially impair the vehicle’s safety, drivability, reliability, and security. • Warning Lights & Phantom Braking: Brake messages and related warnings on the cluster appeared on the drive home from the dealership shortly after purchase, even with no obstacles present. Intermittent false warnings have continued. …”
