2014 Mazda CX-5 Speed Control & Cruise Problems

ON THREE OCCASIONS, WHILE PARKING MY VEHICLE AND REVERSING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT, MY VEHICLE SLIPPED AND AUTOMATICALLY ACCELERATED FORWARD WITHOUT ME PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL. THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT OCCURRED ON MAY 17, 2018 WHILE I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PARK MY VEHICLE AND IT AUTOMATICALLY ACCELERATED WITHOUT ME PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL AND CAUSED ME TO CRASH INTO 2 POLES THAT WHERE PLACED IN FRONT OF A DOORWAY IN THE PARKING LOT. THE SECOND ISSUE I HAVE WITH THIS VEHICLE IS THE POWER BUTTON ON THE IGNITION WILL NOT TURN OFF WHEN I PRESS THE OFF BUTTON. IN ORDER FOR THE POWER TO TURN OFF, I HAVE TO CONTINUOUSLY PRESS THE BRAKE, MOVE THE PARKING GEAR BACK AND FORTH AND PRESS THE IGNITION BUTTON SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE THE POWER SHUTS OFF.

TAKATA RECALL: THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH ACCELERATION AND THE CAR NOT TURNING COMPLETELY OFF ONCE THE PUSH START/STOP BUTTON IS PRESSED. DURING ACCELERATION THE GEARS SEEM LIKE THEY GET STUCK AND THE CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY AND TO TURN THE CAR OFF COMPLETELY I WILL USUALLY HAVE TO TURN THE ENGINE BACK ON COMPLETELY, SHIFT IN REVERSE OR DRIVE THEN BACK TO PARK AND TURN OFF. SOMETIMES REPEATING THE PROCESS MULTIPLE TIMES UNTIL THE CAR TURNS OFF COMPLETELY. I FIRST NOTICED THIS PROBLEM A FEW MONTHS AGO AND HAS PROGRESSIVELY BECOME MORE FREQUENT IN OCCURRENCES.

MAZDA CX 5 AWD ATM. I STOPPED MY MAZDA CX 5 ON THE STOP LIGHT AND PUT THE GEAR NEUTRAL. WHEN I SWITCHED THE GEAR TO DRIVE, IT DIDN'T UPSHIFTED BUT STAYED ON THE SAME GEAR. IT COULDN'T MAKE MORE THAN 30 MPH WITH RMP SHOOTING UP VERY HIGH. I PULLED IT OVER, STOPPED THE ENGINE , RESTARTED THE ENGINE AND THE PROBLEM WAS GONE. *TR

UPON ENTERING THE HIGHWAY A CAR CAME UP ON ME VERY FAST, WHEREUPON I FLOORED THE GAS PEDAL. THE CAR JETTED FORWARD TO ABOUT 65 MPH THEN SUDDENLY LOST ALL POWER; LIKE IT WAS FUNCTIONING ON ONE CYLINDER. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND COAST DOWN TO MY MAX SPEED OF 5-MPH. EVEN THOUGH THE PEDAL WAS FLOORED I COULD NOT GET ABOVE 1000 RPMS AND 5-MPH. VARIOUS WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON, INCLUDING THE TCS AND ENGINE LIGHTS. ALL WARNING LIGHTS REMAINED ON WITHOUT FLASHING. ONCE I GOT TO A SAFE PLACE I SHUT THE CAR DOWN AND WITHIN ONE MINUTE RESTARTED IT WITH NO SIGN OF A PROBLEM. I DROVE OVER 100-MILES TODAY AND NERVOUSLY HAD TO PASSE SOMEONE, BUT WITHOUT PROBLEM. *TR

I WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH. I GENTLY REDUCED SPEED TO MAKE A TURN AND WHEN TRIED TO ACCELERATE AGAIN, MY NEW CAR DID NOT ACCELERATED. I HAD TO FULLY STOP HAVING CARS BEHIND IN A MAYOR ROAD. AFTER FEW SECONDS IT DID ACCELERATE BUT DID NOT PASS THE 10 MPH. THE DEFECT WAS ONLY SEEN THAT DAY AND FORTUNATELY I COULD GET HOME AT 10 MPH. THE CAR WAS TURNED ON THE NEXT DAY AND WAS WORKING PROPERLY. IT WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND WAS FOUND NOTHING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 MAZDA CX5. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED WITHOUT ANY WARNINGS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 1,500.
