Mazda CX-5 electrical problems

CAR SOMETIMES WILL NOT TURN OFF AUXILIARY POWER WHEN PUT IN PARK AND ENGINE IS TURNED OFF. RADIO AND AUXILIARY FUNCTIONS CONTINUE TO RUN. I NEED TO START ENGINE, MOVE CAR BACK AND FORTH TWO OR MORE TIMES, PUT IN PARK AND PUSH IGNITION BUTTON AGAIN TO TOTALLY SHUT OFF POWER. THIS MAY HAPPEN SEVERAL TIMES A DAY, THEN NOT OCCUR FOR WEEKS AT A TIME. MY CAR IS ALWAYS PARKED ON A LEVEL SURFACE WHEN THIS HAPPENS, I AM POSITIVE THE CAR IS IN PARK, AND TYPE OF WEATHER DOESN'T SEEM TO BE AN ISSUE.IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MAZDA VEHICLES, AND I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF POSTS ON THE INTERNET OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. MY MAZDA DEALER TOLD MY MECHANIC THAT THEY HAVE HAD SEVERAL CARS IN ONE WEEK COME IN WITH THIS COMPLAINT.

TL* THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER OWNS A 2014 MAZDA CX-5. WHILE DRIVING, THE CONTACT HEARD A CLICKING NOISE UNDER THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT COULD NOT DETERMINE THE LOCATION OF THE CLICKING NOISE. THE TRACTION CONTROL AND CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. ON ANOTHER OCCASION, THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE, BUT IT FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE BATTERY DRAINED DUE TO IT NOT GROUNDING ONE OF THE CIRCUITS. ALSO, THE POWER CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC STATED THAT NO PARTS WERE AVAILABLE TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE AT ANY OF THE LOCAL DEALERS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNAVAILABLE.

FAILURE TO START. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THE ISSUE WAS THAT I NEEDED A NEW BREAK SWITCH AND I HAD CORRODED WIRES ON THE RIGHT SIDE. I HAVE A VIDEO OF MY ISSUE. HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/DFYWAGVKAVU THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THESE WERE KNOWN ISSUES BUT NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT TIME OF ISSUE. I MAY NEED TO HAVE THE DEALERSHIP RE PRINT MY INVOICE, I DIDN'T SEE IT IN MY FILES. MY VEHICLE IS A 2013 AND THIS ISSUE WAS IN 2016. WIRES SHOULD NOT BE CORRODED THIS QUICKLY, MY WARRENTY DID NOT COVER THE WIRES. THIS ISSUE SEEMS DANGEROUS TO ME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 MAZDA CX-5. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER DEPRESSING THE ON/OFF BUTTON TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF, THE ENGINE WOULD SHUT OFF BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD REMAIN ON. WHILE THE ELECTRONICS WERE STILL ON, THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO BE REMOTELY LOCKED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED HE WAS AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH UNIT WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. NO FURTHER INFORMATION WAS AVAILABLE. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

VEHICLE HAS RECENTLY BEGAN TO NOT TURN OFF COMPLETELY WHEN THE START/STOP BUTTON IS PRESSED WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK. IT STAYS IN THE ACCESSORIES MODE WITH SOME INSTRUMENTS AND ACCESSORIES STILL ON AND CAN NOT BE LOCKED. IF LEFT IN THIS CONDITION, THE BATTERY WILL DRAIN AND THE CAR IS UNLOCKED AND CAN BE ENTERED. TO RESOLVE THIS, THE TRANSMISSION HAS TO BE SHIFTED IN AND OUT OF PARK UNTIL THE VEHICLE CAN BE TURNED OFF. THIS CAN TAKE FOUR OR FIVE OR MORE ATTEMPTS. SOMETIMES, THE VEHICLE HAS TO BE MOVED SLIGHTLY IN ORDER FOR THIS TO OCCUR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 MAZDA CX-5. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SERVICE ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE VENT FUNCTIONS FAILED FOR THE AIR CONDITIONING AND HEATING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR FURTHER DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT YET BEEN NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 48,541. ..UPDATED 08/31/17 *BF HEATER CORE FAILURE AND FAULTY COOLANT. UPDATED 9/27/18*JB

CHECK ENGINE, TPS, AND TCS LIGHTS COME ON AND VEHICLE STARTS BUCKING AND DECELERATING. PULLED OVER, DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY. DASHBOARD LIGHTS AND BUCKING ARE GONE AT RESTART. ISSUE OCCURRED TWO MORE TIMES IN A SPAN OF A COUPLE DAYS, SO I TOOK IT TO A SHOP. P0101 AND P061B PROBLEMS PRESENT. MAF SENSOR SEEMS FINE. CONTINUES MALFUNCTIONING AFTER OIL CHANGE AND INSPECTION. TAKING TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REFLASHING.

BODY: ABOUT ONE MONTH AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, THE PAINT BECAME BRITTLE. THERE IS A LARGE ROCK CHIP, SCRATCHES ON THE HOOD, AND CHIPS ON THE DOOR. ELECTRICAL: THE SEAT HEATER ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE TURNS ON INTERMITTENTLY WITHOUT THE POWER BEING TURNED ON. TRANSMISSION: THE RMSS CONTINUE TO INCREASE WHEN I TAKE MY FOOT OFF OF THE GAS AT HIGH SPEEDS (INTERSTATE). I DO NOT HAVE THE CRUISE CONTROL ON. THEY REV ABOUT 10,000 AND THEN COME BACK DOWN.
