NHTSA Complaint #11717460 — 2025 MAZDA CX-50

I brought my vehicle to Modern Mazda of Thomaston, CT on Friday January 30, 2026 due to a front-end passenger clunking noise that occurs during left turns. The master tech test-drove the vehicle to duplicate the noise and video of the damage. I was informed that the front passenger axle was leaking grease in video and recommend to replace the front axle. I was told the necessary parts are on back order 6-8 weeks. I was told Mazda is aware of the manufacturer workmanship defect in the CV axle parts. The service manager did provide written documentation ordering the parts. I did file a complaint with Mazda Corporate, documenting the issue and the dealership's findings as well as I was informed the fact Mazda is seeking a new supplier of CV parts. A Mazda corporate case number was assigned. I believe this is a safety issue and a recall should be issued.
