Model and VIN were impacted by the Mazda Valve Stem Seal Settlement. This issue was not disclosed by the dealer.

While I was driving on I-90, I lost control of the acceleration of my vehicle. The vehicle was towed and has been diagnosed with a failed transmission! The car would not accelerate or it would accelerate in bursts or rapidly slow down. I was able to pull over and the car failed to move at all after. My safety and others was put at risk as I lost the ability to control the speed of the vehicle on a road where the speed limit is 65mph in traffic around me. When the problem began no lights illuminated, until ~30 seconds in the yellow engine failure light illuminated and then the yellow transmission failure light illuminated. The car was brought to a dealership for inspection and they diagnosed it as a transmission failure. This is unacceptable for such a young vehicle (2021). It should be noted that the car manufacturer immediately approved the replacement the same day it was diagnosed (dealership said it usually takes 48 hours), but the part is back-ordered for months (probably because they know this is happening and trying to cover it up).

My oil changes were affected as well.

- Port Wentworth, GA, USA

Car lunged forward when lightly stepping on the gas while making a turn onto a busy street. Then it later lagged in responding when I stepped on the gas. About 5 minutes later, the car dashboard lit up and said there was a transmission error. Mechanic's diagnosis found code P0756 for a shift solenoid B stuck off. The car is unsafe to drive.

Low engine oil light is on again, I had one at 4600 miles and keep happening every 5-6000 miles. I had 7!! oil changes on a car that is 2.5 years old and it is at 29000 miles. I am sitting at the dealership and they are telling me nothing is wrong and despite of the valve stem cap replacement available they are not willing to replace it. In addition I had my battery die and needed to be replaced at 23 months after purchasing a brand new car - due to a faulty system. This is getting extremely upsetting. And dealearships do not care.

- Bellflower, CA, USA

On multiple occasions, low oil warning lamp illuminates and I have confirmed low oil level. Dealer is unable to confirm and refuses to address Mazda TSB because oil level is no longer low since I topped it up. The failure lies in the valve seal assembly. My safety and that of my passengers is affected because in the event of a low oil incident, my ability to safely drive the speed limit and/or accelerate quickly is compromised. Should a catastrophic failure occur, engine would lose all power. Date of most recent incident marked below.

The contact owns a 2021 Mazda CX-30. The contact stated that while the contact's wife was driving at an undisclosed speed, several unknown warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that the vehicle decelerated to 20 MPH. The contact's wife drove the vehicle to a safe location and parked the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, but the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure. The contact stated that the independent mechanic reset the codes and the vehicle operated as intended; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the contact was informed that the battery needed to be replaced. The battery was replaced but the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where it was diagnosed with a failed MAP sensor. The contact was informed that the MAP sensor needed to be replaced. The vehicle remained with the dealer for nineteen days and the MAP sensor was replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where it was diagnosed with needing a software update. The vehicle was at the dealer for another 34 days and the software update was completed and the PCM was replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure reoccurred. The contact stated that the failure had been persistent. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but provided no assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 36,500.

Engine is burning an excessive amount of oil. After numerous times to the dealership Mazda has finally okay the "fix" to be done to the car. What this "fix" is I do not know.

Low engine oil level since I bought it in September 2021. I-??ve had it at the dealer three times and they-??ve said there are no codes on the car but they are on my Mazda app. They want me to drive it over a hour away with low oil to prove to them that the engine oil is low. I did this, shut the car off, the light went off and when the engine oil level was checked it read one quart low.

I would like to report that I am not feeling safe driving my 2021 MAZDA CX-30 Premium anymore. My vehicle is affected by the MAZDA Technical Service Bulletin 01-003/23, . Subject: ENGINE OIL LEVEL WARNING LIGHT ON WITH DTC P250f:00 DUE TO LOW ENGINE OIL LEVEL This is a known issue by MAZDA! It results in an oil consumption increase due to damage of the valve seals on the exhaust side. The first time the Engine warning light with the message "Engine Oil Level Low" was displayed on May 20, 2023. the earliest appointment to get this issue diagnoised and repaired was on 06/30/2023 at the MAZDA dealer in Augusta, ME. They diagnosed the issue but were not able to repair it, since they don't have the required level of technician as outlined in TSB 01-003/23. I then had to reach out to another MAZDA dealer, Thompson Mazda in Waterville, ME. They ignored my complaint over the phone, not accepting that this issue was already corectly diagnosed by the other MAZDA dealer in Augusta, ME. I contacted MAZDA of North America Customer Relations but didn't get any support so far. They told me the earliest date to get the vehicle diagnoesed and possibly repaired would be end of September. I told them that this is unacceptable and I don't feel safe driving the vehicle with this known issue.

The low engine oil warning light keeps coming on, and there-??s appears to be no visible leak. I add about a quart each time this happens and it does fine for a while. The last time I took it to the dealership, I told them about it. They just said they didn-??t see a leak and not to worry about it. Ultimately the issue is how will this impact the longevity of my engine?

I purchased a Mazda CX-30 October 2021 - in April of 2022 the oil light came on mileage 4,672 and I decided to have just have the oil changed at Hello Mazda of San Diego. They said they wouldn't charge me for the oil only the service charge. And mentioned that something is wrong and will top the oil off at no charge in the future. Last month in November I took a short trip to Tucson AZ to visit family the oil light came on once again mileage 10,079 I brought the car into Jim Click Mazda Tucson and after several hours I got the car back. They had topped off the oil with no charge. I asked how low the oil was. The service man quickly said just a little low under a quart. I didn't want to argue with him- but I checked the oil stick, and it was below a quart and I know a light most likely won't come on without it being at least a quart low.

Using a quart of oil every 1,500 miles. Known oil consumption issue with the 2021 Mazda CX 30 turbo 2.5 engine

- Old Hickory, TN, USA

The Low Oil Level light/sensor came on before it was time to get an oil change (the recommended 4600 miles). This is super dangerous as it can cause major engine issues. I took it to the dealership and the dealership stated "they are having problems with these cars-they are burning too much oil so there is going to be a replacement valve once they have one made and you'll need to come back in to have it replaced -it will be a big job since it's part of the engine".
