CX-9 3.4L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 93,206 miles

I was driving at the speed of approx 60kms/hr and suddenly I noticed everything was shut down. In the meter, there was no light as if car is locked and shutdown. All the speedometers were at 0, fuel was at empty but yet the car was in driving mode and I was driving without any issue but there was no light signal or anything.

I thought it's a battery issue, I continued driving as my home was one km away and parked it there. I switched it off and tried starting but no signal everything was blanked.

I thought it's a battery issue so I called the battery guy, he brought the new battery and checked the wiring than he said it's not a battery issue something to do with electrical controls.

So I took to a local garage, he reviewed and said I couldn't find the fault, it seems a programming issue please take it to the agency. I took it to the agency, it's with them since approx a day now and I'm told it seems a Module issue and we are still trying to find it what's the exact cause and an issue. I am waiting for a solution yet...

CX-9 GT 3.7L

  • Automatic transmission

Our daughter was driving and all the sudden the vehicle electronic system shuts off car died completely without notice. Luckily she was able to pull off the freeway without any incident or accident. The car still at the local Dealer, been 2 days. They updated us earlier but so far they have not duplicate the problem, they said nothing found on the diagnostic machine so they will continue to drive it on the freeway. we're afraid that they won't duplicate the problem, and we will be worried all this time when we drive it specially on the freeway.
