EBRAKE WOULD NOT DISENGAGE ON THE MAZDA CX-5 2016 GT WITH CITY BRAKE AND ELECTRONIC E-BRAKE AT 36,100 MILES DURING VARIOUS PARKING LOCATIONS SCENARIOS. VEHICLE WOULD START NORMALLY AT PUSH OF START BUTTON BUT THE E-BRAKE LIGHT WOULD STAY ON IN THE FLASHING MODE. TURN ENGINE OFF/RESTARTING WOULD RESOLVE THE PROBLEM TEMPORARILY JUST TO RETURN TO THE SAME ISSUE AT RANDOM PARKING LOCATIONS. DEALERSHIP SUGGESTED A REPLACEMENT BATTERY MAIN 12 VOLT BATTERY FOR $185+TAX+INSTALLATION. BATTERY REPLACEMENT SUGGESTED BASED ON A CLAIM OF LOW VOLTAGE MEASURED AT THE E-BRAKE SWITCH LOCATED ON THE CENTER CONSOLE. THERE WAS NO OTHER SOLUTIONS PROVIDED BY THE DEALERSHIP FOR FURTHER TESTING/ISOLATION OF ISSUE PRIIR MAKING A PAYMENT, TO INCLUDE CONFIRMATION THAT IN FACT THE BATTERY IS THE CULPRIT. UTILIZING AN ALTERNATE/TEST BATTERY COULD BE A TEMPORARY TESTING SOLUTION. PAYMENTS WERE MADE AS REQUESTED AND THE ISSUE OF THE FLASHING E-BRAKE LIGHT FLASHING/E-BRAKE NOT DISENGAGING IS LESS APPARENT WITH 2 INCIDENTS 1 MONTH AFTER BATTERY REPLACEMENT. INCIDENTS OBSERVED WHILE IN COVERED/UNCOVERED PARKING SCENARIOS, OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE OSCILLATE FROM 75 TO 92 F. VEHICLE REAR BRAKES WERE REPLACED UNDER 5000 MILES BY DEALERSHIP DUE TO NOISES AND PREMATURE WEAR. VEHICLE ALSO HAS A MAZDA REMOTE START SYSTEM INSTALLED BY DEALERSHIP WITH A HISTORY OF ELECTRICAL FAILURE OF THE A/C COMPRESSOR. DOCUMENTATION AVAILABLE FOR REVIEW.

WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY AND IN PARK THE ENGINE DOESN'T COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN, THE RADIO ANDDASH LIGHTS STAY ON. ALSO THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK BECAUSE THE CAR WILL BEEP CONSISTENTLYAND I FEAR THE BATTERY MAY DIE. I HAVE TO MOVE THE CAR IN AND OUT OF PARK AND THEN MOVE THE GEAR SHIFT LEFT AND RIGHT QUICKLY MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEN MAYBE IT WILL CUT OFFCOMPLETELY. SOMETIMES IT TAKES ME UP TO 10 MINUTES AND 8-10 TRIES OF MOVING MY CAR OUT OF PARK AND BACK TO PARK AND MOVE THE GEAR SHIFT LEFT AND RIGHT TO GET MY CAR TO SHUT OFF COMPLETELY. I KNOW THE PROBLEM IS THE GEAR SHIFTER. THERE IS A SENSOR THAT TELLS IT WHEN IT'S IN PARK, AND IN MY CAR IT STOPPED WORKING. THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RE-CALL BECAUSE ACCORDING TO SEVERAL FORUMS THERE HAVE BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE WITH THIS MAZDA CX-5 MAKE AND MODEL.

THE BACK UP CAMERA FAILS TO OPERATE AT TIMES FOR A DAY OR HALF A DAY. SOMETIMES IT APPEARS BLACK AND OTHER IT JUST SHOWS THE VOLUME WITH AN X OVER IT, BUT NO PICTURE OF THE REAR. I HAVE CHECKED EACH TIME AND THERE IS NOTHING BLOCKING THE CAMERA IN THE REAR. THE FIRST TIME IT OCCURRED THERE WAS JUST A FEW THOUSAND MILES, THEN AGAIN ABOUT 5,000 AND THEN AGAIN AT 9465 MILES. I WAS IN PARK WITH FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND IN REVERSE. NO IMAGE APPEARED AND THEN WHEN BACKING UP IN MOTION IT DID NOT WORK EITHER. IT HAS HAPPENED OVER 3 TIMES IN THE FIRST 10 MONTHS OF OWNING THE VEHICLE AND THE DEALER WILL NOT FIX IT BECAUSE THEY CANNOT REPRODUCE IT. IT IS INTERMITTENT. THE CAR HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH THE FRONT CAMERA WHICH WAS FINALLY REPLACED AFTER 7 MONTHS AFTER MY MANY TRIPS TO DEALERS. IT WAS REPORTED TO YOU ALSO.
WILL NOT SHUT DOWN WHEN IGNITION IS SHUT OFF HAVE TO MAKE SEVERAL ATTEMPS AT REATARTING TO SHUT DOWN AND REMOTE DOES NOT REACT PROPPERLY IN OPENING AND CLOSING ON GOING KNOW FOR 6 MONTHS TODAYS DATE 10-04-18 CAR IS PARKED
WHEN STOPPED AND WITH THE ENGINE AND ALL LIGHTS TURNED OFF, THE CAR WILL DRAIN THE BATTERY AND NOT BE ABLE TO BE STARTED. THIS HAS RESULTED IN BEING STRANDED IN MANY PLACES. IN FACT, I NOW CARRY A RECHARGABLE BATTERY PACK TO KEEP FROM BEING STRANDED ONCE A MONTH.
VEHICLE WILL NOT SHUT OFF COMPLETELY WHEN THE START/OFF BUTTON IS PUSHED. ACCESSORIES STAY ON. I SEE OTHER COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS SAME PROBLEM TO THE SHIFT SWITCH PART #KDY0-46-040. HAVE TO JIGGLE SHIFTER 10 TO 15 TIMES TO GET IT TO SHUT OFF.
