“I purchased a new Mazda cx 9 in the fall of 2010. After a few months, I noticed the traction control tcs off button illuminated while driving up a paved incline. 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. …”

“I've own my 2010 CX-9 since new, at 96k miles the bolt mount for the hatch back power lift ripped out of the sheet metal of the hatch with a piece of metal and bolt flying. I use the car only for private use and no heavy duty usage. Bolt looked rusted (sorry I through it away). The Mazda dealer tells me that it is a very uncommon occurrence, and that is not covered by Mazda. I see in blogs that it is not that uncommon. The bolt and metal breaking may cause glass breakage or damage to someone while the door is being opened. …”

“I was driving on a highway getting off an exit, and I had my kids in my car and all of a sudden as I am slowing down to come to a stop to turn off the exit my car steering and brakes locked up and everything shut down. Luckily I live in walking distance to the exit ramp because someone stopped and helped me push my car to my house. They had to put it in neutral but it was extremely hard to move the steering wheel. Never had any issues with leaks or anything like this. The car smelled like antifreeze and was running hot. I let it cool off. It was the water pump that was leaking and went out. …”

“While driving vehicle, at approximately 50 MPH, sunroof exploded. Weather was sunny and approximately 18 degrees fahrenheit. Driver's side heat was on and set at 73 degrees fahrenheit. Sun shade and sunroof were closed. Sunroof had not been operated in a few months. No evidence of outside interference. No other traffic within 150 feet. Examination of remaining glass indicated upward bow, indicating pressure from inside pushing out, in my opinion. …”
