As I put in park mode to turn off (push button) vehicle stay on accessory, radio and alarm beeping stays on and does not go off... I have read numerous complaints and reviews on Mazda 6 & Mazda CX5 experiencing the same problem, going back from 2012 and I just had a recall done on my calipers, and they said they replaced the door padding but nothing showed of new material. When I asked them about the start /stop problem they said they had never heard of this problem.. today I have been doing research on this problem and read lots of this same problem. Why is it not a recall issue their has been so many complaints... thank you for reading my issues.

Vehicle push to start fails when shutting off car. The car's not reading that it is in park. Engine will shut off but all vehicle electronics will stay on and car can still be shifed out of gear. Dealership replaced gear selector switch which they said had a faulty spring.

For seemingly no reason, the vehicle will restart and stall while driving and multiple warning lights will illuminate. This has happened while driving slow, fast and while turning. When this happens, I need to immediately pull over and restart the engine. The check engine light turns on and indicates an abrupt voltage change issue, but soon turns off after a few power cycles. This started to happen more and more often, and more recently, I had the car not able to start as if the battery died. All my electrical components, such as headlights and hazard lights shut off and after about 10 seconds, they all turned back on and running normally. At this point my vehicle started up again just fine. This has nearly caused an accident a couple times and no mechanic has been able to diagnose the issue yet. Although, this issue seems alarmingly close to a recent recall that was announced for 2018-2019 Mazda relating to a software issue that causes unexpected engine stalling relating to the fuel-saving cylinder deactivation technology. Unfortunately, even though my vehicle contains the same technology, it wasn't included on this recall list.

When driving on a street or highway I can still drive with the emergency brake on in the up position, and it doesn't affect my vehicles forward movement what so ever.

Fow (forward obstruction warning) inspection required flashes on dash as if a loose connection. Only flashes for about 3 seconds then goes away. I manually turned off fow to stop the flashing. But will turn back on once I restart the car. The cruise control off/on switch seems to affect the warning flashes as well. Once the car warms up, things seem normal. During driving this effects the cruise control and system overall. Happens every time I start the car and start driving

When placing the car in park and pressing the push start/stop, the car will not turn completely off. I have to repeatedly place the gear in all dnrp several times(5 or more) before the car realizes it is fully in park and all power turns completely off. I should not have to do this in order to turn the vehicle completely off. The vehicle is in stop position and in park. The vehicle will not power all the way off. Leaving the radio and lights on and disables the ability to lock the doors or set the alarm.

With no consistancey, the car would loose power. At times, I thought the car would loose full power, in the middle of my commute, I would be forced to pull over and shut the car off. Most times, the car would return to normal conditions. When I brought it in for repair, byers Mazda of columbus, told me it needed a tune-up. Once again, the car almost stalled out and I managed to coast into a parking space. Now the same dealership is informing me for the first time that the car has an I-loop system and the battery that should have lasted five years, now less than the 3 years old, needs to be replaced for over $500. I bought this car used with an extended warranty and although it was my mistake, the dealership never disclosed the I-loop system and the problems that go with it. This I-loop battery will apparently last 2-3 years only and is very expensive. I guess it is legal for dealership sales reps to misrepresent the car maintenance because they say it is my responsibility to know what I purchased. I will never buy from byers auto for any model car!

Mazda North America operations (Mazda) is recalling certain model year 2014 mazda3 vehicles manufactured June 12, 2013, through December 18, 2013, and model year 2014-2015 Mazda6 vehicles manufactured May 20, 2013, through December 4, 2013, and both equipped with a 2.5L engine and a regenerative engine braking system. When driving the affected vehicles in heavy rain or in deep puddles, the alternator belt may slip causing the power control module (PCM) to incorrectly assume failure of the charging system. Consequence once the PCM assumes that the charging system has failed, the vehicle will stop charging and could result in poor acceleration, loss of steering assist and windshield wiper operation, and a possible engine stall, increasing the risk of a crash. What owners should do Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the PCM with updated software, free of charge. The recall began on May 19, 2014. Owners may contact Mazda at 1-800-222-5500. Mazda's number for this recall is 7314D. My car is experiencing this recall that was closed in 2015. Mazda is concern about the problem since the recall is closed ans the repair was done at the time of the recall. However the pro elm still exist.

I was driving down a street @ 40mph when the infotainment, speedometer, shut off and I could not accelerate. The stability control warning came on and stayed on. After a brief moment, the stability warning turned off, but the check engine light went on. The car drove normally for the rest of the day, but the very next day, at a stop light, the same thing occurred, but this time, I could not accelerate past 2000 rpms, nor reach 20 mph. I pulled over on the side, and turned off the car. Then turned it back on. It drove normally with the check engine light on the rest of the day, but this could be a very dangerous situation.
