1 Wiper problem

Failure Date: 05/05/2026

This vehicle was purchased two months ago. In that time the windshield has sustained multiple significant chips on multiple occasions during routine highway commuting. Some of these are in the line of sight of the driver, causing distractions or visibility issues. Prior to purchasing this vehicle I owned a 2012 Toyota corolla, which traveled the same route every day and did not receive any significant windshield chips over a period of years. It seems that the windshield of the Mazda is particularly fragile and/or brittle compared to other windshields and suffers chips and cracks too easily.

2 Wiper problem

Failure Date: 09/10/2025

The driver side mirror vibrates at speeds above 65 miles per hour especially with windy conditions. Went to the dealer they replaced the mirror assembly with the issue still remaining. Mazda answer is that is common in cx 5 models. It is a safety issue as it really limits visibility for vehicles behind.

3 Wiper problem

Failure Date: 01/04/2025

The windshield on our new 2025 Mazda Cx-5 is defective. Objects viewed through the windshield are distorted, to include the active driver’s display (colloquially known as the hud). Drivers and passengers are impeded from clearly seeing and focusing on objects visible throughout the front of the vehicle. Objects to include road signs are distorted, lose clarity which result in unnecessary and dangerous distractions. This problem significantly degrades the vehicle’s usability, safety and ultimate enjoyment.
