NHTSA Complaint #11193650 — 2013 MAZDA CX-5

OVER THE LIFETIME OF MY VEHICLE, I HAVE REPLACED MY REAR PADS AND ROTORS THREE TIMES (HAVE ALSO REPLACED FRONT PADS AND ROTORS TWO TIMES DURING THE LIFETIME OF THE CAR). THE MOST TWO RECENT OCCURRENCES WERE IN NOVEMBER 2017 AND APRIL 2019, WHERE BOTH THE REAR BRAKES PADS AND ROTORS WERE COMPLETELY REPLACED BOTH TIMES. THE MILEAGE IN BETWEEN BOTH REPAIRS WAS ONLY 22,326. I HAVE CALLED WITH MY CONCERNS TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THEY EXPLAIN THAT THERE ARE SO MANY FACTORS THAT IT IS DIFFICULT TO SAY WHAT THE ISSUE COULD BE. I TAKE CARE OF MY VEHICLE, IT IS ALWAYS REPAIRED AND SERVICED ON TIME, HAS FREQUENT CAR WASHES, INCLUDING THE WHEEL AND UNDERCARRIAGE AREA. I HAVE AN APPROXIMATE HALF HOUR COMMUTE WITH ONLY HIGHWAY MILES, BECAUSE WE HAVE AN ADDITIONAL CAR FOR OUR LOCAL ERRANDS. IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH A LOT OF 2013 MAZDA CX-5 OWNERS, NOT JUTS MYSELF, AS I'VE DISCOVERED FROM MANY VEHICLE COMPLAINT BOARDS ONLINE WHO SPEAK OF THE SAME EXACT ISSUE OF HAVING TO CONSTANTLY REPLACE PREMATURELY WORN BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS. I PERSONALLY FEEL THAT THERE IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING MORE TO THIS RECURRING ISSUE THAN WHAT I AM ACTUALLY BEING TOLD, AND FEEL AS THOUGH IT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED ONCE AND FOR ALL. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND ASSISTANCE.
