1 Brake Sensor problem

Failure Date: 12/19/2020

I was accelerating after a traffic light turned green and there were no cars in front of me when the car started braking automatically and came to a full stop. Luckily the car behind me was able to stop in time but there was no warning and no reason. I could have been rear ended. I pulled over and checked the two sensors and neither one was blocked (it had snowed here recently). I'm honestly scared this could happen again and Mazda is saying there are no open recalls about this for my car and that the car is fine.

2 Brake Sensor problem

Failure Date: 11/20/2019

Automatic break system malfunctions often and does a hard break. Also the perimeter sensor gets disabled numerous time out of blue while driving and stop functioning until the car restarts. The break happens without any prior indication or same situation. It just happens on the regular road as well as highway. But the highway just scares me. But there is no way I can tell Mazda with a proof.
