What 133 owners told NHTSA about the 2015 Mazda CX-5

I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW IN MAY. WITHIN THE FIRST MONTH, THE CAR WOULDN'T START I BOUGHT THE CAR IN TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE BATTERIES ON THE FOBS. LAST WEEK, I NOTICED THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW TRIM FRONT AND BACK DOORS WAS MELTING. I CALLED THE DEALER, BOUGHT IT IN AND THEY TOOK PICS, SAID THEY WOULD CONTACT MAZDA REP AND SENT ME HOME. ON SATURDAY, I DROVE TO A STORE APPROX. 10 MILES AWAY AND WHEN LEAVING FOR HOME, MY CAR WOULDN'T START AGAIN. I FINALLY GOT IT STARTED AFTER MULTIPLE TRIES. WHILE DRIVING HOME I NOTICED THE BLIND SPOT MONITORING ON THE DRIVERS SIDE WAS FLASHING AND THERE WERE NO CARS NEXT TO ME. I LEFT THE CAR PARKED FOR THE REST OF THE WEEKEND BUT ON SUNDAY NOTICED THE MELTED SPOTS WERE WORSE. I CONTACTED THE DEALER ON MONDAY AND BROUGHT IT IN. THEY ARE SAYING SOMETHING ON OUR HOUSE OR AROUND IT IS CAUSING THE MELTING, HOWEVER, MY WIFE PARKS HER 2015 HONDA CR-V NEXT TO MINE AND THERE IS NO MELTING HAPPENING TO HER CAR. ALL THE OTHER VEHICLES OWNED AND PARKED IN THE SAME DRIVEWAY FOR THE PAST 15 YEARS DO NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE. I ALSO SUBMITTED THIS INFO TO MAZDAUSA.COM BUT HAVE NOT HEARD BACK.

I WAS PARKING MY CAR IN THE GARAGE LAST NIGHT, WHEN I NOTICED A FRACTURE LINE PROPAGATING FROM THE BASE OF THE WINDSHIELD (ABOUT 6 INCHES LONG). IN MY ENTIRE HISTORY OF DRIVING I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS WITH A VEHICLE. THERE WAS NO STONE CHIP OR INDENTATION. JUST A FRACTURE LINE. BY THE NEXT DAY WHEN I GOT INTO MY CAR, THE FRACTURE LINE HAD SPREAD ACROSS THE WINDSHIELD. MAZDA CLAIMS HIGH SAFETY RATING, BUT THIS IS A MANUFACTURE ERROR AND POOR/THIN GLASS QUALITY. THE DEALERSHIP WAS TRYING TO ARGUE AND NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE! I AM ESCALATING THIS COMPLAINT WITH MAZDA. AT THE MOMENT, I HAVE NOT HEARD BACK. *TR
