I own a 2016 Mazda CX-5 Touring with AWD. I purchased it brand new from a dealer--no miles on it. It's been a great car until this Sudden Unintended Acceleration problem (about 60K miles now). It's happened 5 or 6 times--twice when in a drive thru. It seems that if I am idling (not pressing on gas or brake) the car will sometimes suddenly accelerate. I have used suggestions to brake, then place car in neutral. That seemed to resolve the problem. However, recently I pulled up to my (rural) mailbox and the car tried to accelerate out of control. I had the brake on (was on a downhill) when it happened, so this was scary. I really had to press down more on the brake pedal, then shifted to neutral, then to park. The acceleration finally stopped. I did not observe tachometer readings during this or other events, but...
DRIVING ON RTE 95 S IN PA. WHEN THE RIGHT REAR YOKOHAMA GEOLANDAR G91A TIRE BLEW OUT WITHOUT WARNING. THE ENTIRE CENTER TREAD SEPARATED FROM THE SIDEWALL AND TOOK OFF DOWN THE HIGHWAY. THE TPMS DID NOT ALERT ME AND ONLY THE SIDEWALLS ARE LEFT. MAZDA AND YOKOHAMA COULDN'T CARE LESS WHEN I CONTACTED THEM.
ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE STAYS ENGAGED WHILE DRIVING CAUSING BRAKES EXCESSIVE WEAR AND BRAKE FAILURE. FIVE 2016 CX5 VEHICLES MANUFACTURED IN SAME 5 MONTH PERIOD CAME TO DEALERSHIP WITH SAME PROBLEM. PROBLEM FIRST DETECTED BY SQUEAKING. PROBLEM GETS WORSE UNTIL DIFFICULT TO STOP WHEN BRAKING. GRUMBLING NOISE IN FRONT CAUSED BY BAD BEARINGS. PROVIDING DEALER RECORDS AND PARTS THAT HAVE BEEN ORDERED. CONCERNED THAT MAZDA HAS NOT ADDRESSED THIS ISSUE WHICH MAY NOT MANIFEST ITSELF FOR A YEAR OR MORE AFTER PURCHASE. MAZDA IS STILL SELLING THE 2016 MODELS SINCE THE 2017'S HAVE BEEN DELAYED. MAZDA HAS HAD REAR BRAKE PROBLEMS IN ITS PREVIOUS MODELS OF CX5 BUT DOES NOT ADDRESS ISSUES ON THE 2016. CONCERNED THAT SOMEONE MAY BE SERIOUSLY HURT OR KILLED BY THIS BRAKING ISSUE. CAR HAS BEEN IN SERVICE SINCE NOVEMBER 17 2016 BECAUSE SUITABLE PARTS ARE STILL ON ORDER. WORRIED THAT WITH TIME PARTS WILL DETERIORATE...
