1 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 01/29/2021

Situation: cvt tramsmission running smoothly when car was first bought. I am 3 weeks into owning the vehicle and the transmission seems to be going out. I had a diagnostic text run and there are zero computer errors. Issues: high revs and jerking of vehicle when gassed. Whether I am at a stand still or already giving gas. Any increased speed applied by the gas causes the jerking motion. There is a 2-5 second delay from the pedal to the transmission kicking. I have almost wrecked multiple times when this issue started occurring on my drive. This cvt would be considered very hazardous considering the specific problems I am experiencing.

2 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 06/22/2018

On the night of 6/22/2018 I was traveling back to missouri from florida going about 60-65 mph on a interchange from I-75 to I-24 when my car locked up completely, it sent me into a spin that I over corrected and threw the car into neutral and had to correct my steering from hitting a guard rail while avoiding 2 semis and 2 cars. We actually got out of this situation by the grace of god and not a single scratch to us or the car. Found out this morning 6/25/2018 that our transmission was the cause and is in the process of being replaced. Is there any other complaints about this situation. And the car has only 18306 miles on it and it's a 2017 Mazda6.
