Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

After turning off the engine and restarting, the tcs-off button shut off. This happened a couple of times before my first servicing. I mentioned the issue to the Mazda dealership when I went in for regular servicing. They checked it and said they found no problem with it. Yet the problem continued sporadically. …”

NHTSA complaint #10536295, filed 2013-08, 1,600 miles

“Vehicle was parked. The tailgate was opened manually. I was moving items around in the trunk to make room for new purchases. My husband did not see that I was moving items in the trunk. He approached the drivers side of the vehicle and pressed the power tailgate button inside the vehicle and the tailgate began to close. It made contact with the back of my neck and pushed my face down into the floor board. The sensors did not work. When the tailgate made contact with me it pushed down harder and faster instead of going back up to open. This caused a serious injury to my neck. …”
