The rear differential makes a grinding, clicking noise when traveling at low speeds and especially when turning. After a fluid change the on the differential, a large amount of metal fragments were visible in the oil. Also causes rear wheel hop on sharp turns. This is a known issue amongst CX50 owners but Mazda refused to acknowledge an issue. The issue started for me around 40k miles. Just outside the warranty period.

The drivers side inside door handle has quit working twice. The dealer has temporarily fixed it both times, but advised us to "just be more gentle with the handle". The cable is falling off of the door hinge inside the door, and the dealer claims they don't have a way to permanently fix it. They just put it back on its mount. We are afraid that the driver will not be able to escape the vehicle in an emergency. Both instances have been under 10,000 miles. The door handle works perfectly fine until it doesn't work at all. No warning given.

The factory adhesive/anti-flutter sealant that bonds the outer hood skin to the inner structural frame has physically separated. There is a clear gap where the outer panel is no longer attached to the frame. As a result, the outer hood skin flexes and vibrates, especially at highway speeds. Impact / Safety Concern: The vibration and movement of the outer hood panel occurs directly in the driver’s forward line of sight. This creates a visible distraction while driving and can draw attention away from the road. Because the outer skin is no longer properly bonded to the structure, the condition is progressive and may worsen over time. Dealer Response: I documented the adhesive separation on the work order. The service advisor lowered the hood insulation and photographed the panel separation. Despite clear visual evidence, the technician closed the concern as “no issue with the hood insulation” and “no fault found.” The same separation was also observed on another CX-50 at the dealership. I am filing this report so the condition can be properly documented while the vehicle remains under warranty.

The automatic emergency braking in this vehicle is faulty. It misinterprets obstacles and uses the emergency braking inconsistently. I park in a parking garage and I have to slowly (less than 5 MPH) drive up any ramps because it apparently sees the ceiling of the garage as a obstacle and as a result, will randomly brake with no notice (which feels like getting rear ended). The dealer said it is working as designed and said I can turn this function off, but I have to turn it off every time I start the car. I also updated the sensitivity t the lowest setting, which didn’t help. I’m worried about this issue happening when I’m in traffic or bad weather and what might occur, like an accident. I’ve talked with other users of this same vehicle and they have ran into similar issues. Based on my experience, I think the system is defective and is a safety issue.
