2014 Mazda CX-5

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND A/T WARNING LIGHT REMAIN ON. UNEXPECTED ISSUE DOES NOT APPEAR TO HAVE ANY CAUSE THAT IS BASED ON DRIVER USAGE OF VEHICLE. OEM BLOGS FOR VARIOUS OWNERS OF THIS MODEL APPEAR TO HAVE SIMILAR ISSUES. MANUFACTURER IS CHARGING CUSTOMERS TO UPDATE THE TCM AND PCM CODES ON PROGRAMMING BOARDS, FOR AN ISSUE IT IS AWARE OF. CODES APPEAR TO ARISE RANDOMLY, AND NOT AS PART OF VEHICLE BEING IN MOTION.

WHEN I PUT MY CAR IN PARK AND GO TO TURN THE CAR OFF, IT WON'T TURN OFF. I THEN HAVE TO PUT IT IN REVERSE AND FORCEFULLY PUSH FORWARD AND LEFT (SOMETIMES 5+ TIMES) AND THEN EVENTUALLY IT WILL ALLOW ME TO TURN OFF THE CAR. I LOOKED IT UP ON THE INTERNET AND I SAW THAT THERE WERE MANY OTHERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. MY CAR IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD AND THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE PAST YEAR.

WHEN I START THE CAR ALL THE DASH LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AND STAYED ON AS I DROVE THE CAR. WHEN I TURNED ON THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS FLASHED RAPIDLY THE NAVIGATION, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SHUT DOWN AND THE CAR STARTED TO DIE. THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT STAYS LIT THE WARNING ABOUT A POWER STEERING FAILURE, BRAKE FAILURE AND KEYLESS ENTRY PROBLEM, ABS, SPEED MONITORING TIRE PRESSURE ALL COMES UP IN THE WARNING AREA. THE POWER STEERING DOES FAIL MAKING IT HARD TO TURN. IN DOING RESEARCH ON THE ISSUE IT COMES FROM A FAULTY GROUND CABLE ISSUE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE CAR. I HAVE HAD THIS OCCUR 3 DIFFERENT TIMES NOW ON THIS CAR.
