1) when left parked for 2-3 days, Mazda Cx-9 (mine is 2013) consistently drains the battery 2) on my grand touring the steering has a shake at above 60 mph the above problems are common on all Mazda Cx-9 and consumers are spending $$$ on these manufacturer issues

CX-9 6-cyl

  • miles
I started my car at home to allow it to warm up while I got the kids ready for school. My cars starts with keyfob (no key) once we was all ready we left home to go to school. I proceeded to drive my car to the school (without the keys, apparently I left them on the table and forgot to grab them) we arrived at the school. I parked, turned the car off and entered the building. When I returned to leave, I was unable to since I did not have my car keys. My Mazda CX9 will shift into gear and drive without the fob within proximity to the vehicle this clearly violates FMVSS 114 S5.2.2- except as specified in S5.2.4, the vehicle must be designed such that the transmission or gear selection control cannot move from the 'park' position, unless the key is in the starting system therefore, I was stranded, I contacted Mazda service (because in the past it seemed as when I got into the car to leave without the keys, I could not shift our of park) to ask they said that is how it was meant to operate. This is a major safety concern. 1) my car can be moved without the key fob 2) no notice that key fob is missing 3) be stranded due to not having keys.
