I am submitting this recall request because my vehicle has experienced repeated incidents of a serious safety issue. While driving—most often on the highway—a warning appears that says “Smart System Brake Malfunction.” Immediately after, the car begins braking on its own without driver input. This has happened multiple times and, based on online reports, it appears to be affecting many Mazda vehicles across different models and years. Each time, I have been forced to pull over, turn off

Cracked cylinder head/leaking coolant.

. In January 2024, I purchased a used 2018 Mazda CX-9. The vehicle ran well until [XXX], when I discovered an engine coolant leak. My mechanic diagnosed it as a known defect involving the cylinder head. My husband contacted Mazda Customer Service (CS), and they advised us to get an official diagnosis from a Mazda dealer. We brought the car to Orland Park Mazda, where a diagnostic confirmed the defect (report attached). We later received an email from Mazda CS saying that since our car was at th

Our Mazda CX-9, having roughly 86,000 miles, had catastrophic engine failure while driving. This is caused by coolant leaking at the cylinder head and around the exhaust manifold. This in turn caused a crack in the engine block. Mazda refused to fix this as it wasn’t a “recall” and only a tsb sent out. 1000 of people have reported this issue, causing failure while driving but Mazda will not recall the engines nor fix them under an extended warranty. After a 4 month battle with Mazda they r

1. The navigation has a frosted crackle appearance framing the screen. It is difficult to read the navigation when needed. I know this has happened to other models of this vehicle and those were recalled and covered. 2. The brake senor keeps going off stating "SMART BRAKE SYSTEM MALFUNCTION". This goes off repeatedly while driving. 3. Then a second message pops up and reads "FRONT RADAR SENSOR SYSTEM MALFUNTION".
