Safety concern. Climate control change is not easy to access while driving from the digital screen. Climate control controls should near the least fixed on the screen for easy access. It is a distraction for the driver.
SEVERE SAFETY DEFECT involving sudden, unprovoked vehicle braking; While driving my 2026 Mazda CX5 at approximately 10-15 MPH or less, the smart brake support-automatic emergency brake system suddenly activated without any warning or obstacle present. The vehicle violently braked and prepared for impact, causing the wheels to lock up and rendering the car temporarily unmovable. This has occurred already on 4-5 separate occasions on dry roads during daylight. This is a severe, recurring safety defect that nearly caused a rear end collision on all 4-5 occasions. My 2 small children are scared every time we have to get in the car and drive, as i am also. The dealership has been notified, but th
I purchased the card week ago, and by Sunday (09/04) it had only about 100 miles on it. I had just pulled out of my parking spot and came to a stop.

While driving, a "telematics error" message displayed, a single red light on the SOS button turned on, and it started beeping loudly while driving. In this state the vehicle cannot automatically summon emergency help following a crash, and I cannot manually trigger an SOS call. We are scheduled to have this repaired on September 15th. We previously submitted a similar case 11744809, which was a similar "telematics error", which also caused the touchscreen to fail to turn on, preventing other safety features from operating.
The Mazda cx5 2026 I purchased has a white film behind both headlights. Mazda refuses to replace headlights stating this is normal. However it is a manufacturing defect. This is a structural problem from outgassing causing a permanent haze on inside of each lens which is considered to be a night visibility hazard. I bought vehicle second week in XXX.Took it back to service dept on XXX. They said no to replacement . Contacted corporate XXX to no avail. Same story.

I expect perfect vehicle for my mo
