I was driving on the freeway at about 60mph with my family in the car (kids in backseat). The sunroof spontaneously exploded (sounded like a gunshot went off in the vehicle). Most of the glass shot upward and behind us. The sunshade was closed so no one was injured, but this is a huge safety hazard to drivers in the vehicle as well as behind us on the road. The dealer is trying to pass it off as a rock hitting the windshield. I suppose there is no official way to prove whether this did occur, but EVEN SO, in any event, if a rock caused the sunroof to EXPLODE as opposed to just shattering or chipping that is a huge manufacturing safety issue. Sunroofs should never explode. The car is currentl

I stopped for gas and when I removed the gas cap air came of out of the filler pipe like it was under high pressure. I could not fuel the vehicle because of the force of the air coming out of the tank blew gas out and shut off the pump. I started and shut off the car numerous times without the gas cap on and with it on which did nothing to affect the issue. It finally stopped after turning off all fans, radio and all accessories in the car and starting it without gas cap. The symptom lasted for more than 25 minutes. When I took my vehicle in for service they told me it was due to temperature change. I have not experienced anything like this with any other vehicle.

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. I am taking the vehicle to a Mazda dealership in the next week or so. No warning lamps or messages occur prior to or during the issue. This issue was

The vehicle utilizes I-Stop, which comes on when stopping and while traveling down the interstate when the computer isn’t registering throttle input as a way to increase fuel economy. At least a dozen times now, the vehicle has failed to register throttle input, which isn't allowing the vehicle to restart when traveling down the road. The tachometer will remain at zero even with the pedal all the way to the floor. This has even happened while traveling down [XXX] in Northern Virginia placing myself and my family at risk of a collision. We have taken the vehicle in for service and mazda has been unable to replicate the issue or successfully diagnose the problem. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT
October 2, 2026Service BrakesBack Over PreventionForward Collision Avoidance
My 2025 Mazda CX-90 PHEV has experienced multiple incidents of sudden, uncommanded hard braking when there was no visible obstacle or danger in front of the vehicle. The most serious incident occurred on September 4, 2026, during rush hour traffic. The vehicle beeped, a warning that said "BRAKE!!" appeared on the dash, and abruptly braked without driver input, creating a significant rear-end collision risk. My dog was thrown from the back seat as a result of the braking. Another unexpected braking incident occurred the following morning when I was backing out of my driveway. Similar unexpected braking behavior has occurred earlier in my ownership of the vehicle as well. I brought the vehicle
