Example complaints

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

“Every time I drive the vehicle, it basically snatches me back into the lane aggressively. If I am moving into the next lane, the lane correction is so aggressively, I am afraid it is going to cause a collision. The brakes squeak and squeal constantly. They have oiled the brakes but it didn't work.”

NHTSA complaint #11740773, filed 2026-05

“Brakes have been really squeaky and seems like a common problem for other CX90 but no fix. Steering tends to feel “sticky” when doing certain turns and locks when you’re at the max radius and won’t return back”

NHTSA complaint #11716061, filed 2026-02

“The steering seems to be malfunctioning and is hesitant or sticking when operating the vehicle. The steering wheel seems to hesitate or stick only during left hand turns, even slight ones. If you do not manually pull the steering wheel back after turning, it will stay in the position and not return as it should. This issue posses a severe safety risk to my family and others if the steering component does not perform properly. An accident could easily occur as a result of this issue. The issue has not been confirmed by an authorized dealer yet. …”
