CX-9

  • 30,000 miles
Mazda 2007 Cx-9 fwd touring model does not operate in snow causing safety concern. If tires start to spin the tcs system shuts off the fuel injectors if the car is going over I think 9 mph. You can shut off the tcs but it automatically engages over 9 mph. What this means is that if you are on a road even with a small amount of snow the car comes to a halt causing a serious safety concern. I have been close to being hit multiple times. There were two instances in 1 inch of snow where I had to park the car because I could not get up minor hills. Most cars have the ability to shut off the tcs system but the Mazda system automatically engages as I said above. Please help.
