Transmission Noise Problems of Mazda CX-5

While getting off a freeway exit suddenly there was some noise in the engine area followed by major rattling every time the car slowed down or sped up, making it undrivable. The professional diagnostic was that something within the transmission was broken/coming apart. The car had only around 27000 miles on it and this happened within months of drive-train warranty expiring.

1509 miles on my new Mazda cx 5 purchased at marin Mazda in san rafael CA. On may 22, 2018 this vehicle keeps having some kind of what feels like a wheel resistance issue. Not sure if it is something happening in the drive train or transmission. Also not sure if it has anything to do with the way the vehicle starts everyday - this car over revs itself when started first thing ticking very loudly, rattling , pinging all kinds of different noises. It is ticking so loudly because it is over revving itself and there is no oil throughout the engine yet. Even after it stops over revving after a few minutes the car continues to have excessive engine noise the service advisor at marin Mazda insists that this is normal for Mazda's to sound like this & is ok. I don't believe him. This kind of start up everyday is going to cause problems in this engine quickly and premature failure of this cars engine. Mazda dealers are concealing some defect that is causing this car to start like this. This is something that should have been disclosed to the customers before they sell this car. Because it did not sound like this when I test drove it. That is because they take you inside while the car is warmed up so you can't hear it. That is concealing this major issue from the consumer. This is Mazda's standards of doing business. Concealing known defects of their vehicles then when a customer brings the vehicle in for repair they tell them it is operating as it was intended to by the manufacture. If this is correct then these things should have been printed on the window sticker on the car not concealed and not mentioned to the customers. This is very deceptive for Mazda, it's dealers and representatives to hide and lie about the merchantability condition of this vehicle. Because nobody wants to buy a brand new car that sounds like a rattle trap ghetto sled when it is started everyday.

I have a fully loaded cx5 grand touring 2016 ---which after driving 500 miles, the transmission failed. When putting the gear in drive, the car did not move--and acted as if it was in neutral. After a bit, it would lurch forward into drive--which was scary and dangerous. My experience with the transmission is very similar to other reports on this site and should be investigated. I became stranded in a parking lot until I was able to get the car to move. I had to have it towed from my driveway since it was not safe to drive. A new transmission was ordered from Mazda and installed. I received my vehicle back after 2 weeks. After driving for a week, approximately another 200 miles, I experienced a "creaking" noise when depressing the gas pedal from a parked or stopped position. Now I am being told that the control arm has failed and has been ordered from Mazda. How could all of this be failing on a brand new car? it is very upsetting and preplexing. Please investiage what is going on here--.
