Owner report 11551122 · 2023-10-20 (October 20, 2023)
When radar cruise control is on, the car sometimes brakes hard totally unexpectedly when it’s about to overtake to a slower-moving vehicle in the adjacent right lane, and despite the fact that the CX-90 does not have any vehicle directly in front of it in its lane. This happens quite regularly at highway, when I am guetting within 100-200 ft of a semi located on the adjacent right lane, even when the road is at right. I almost got rear ended at 75mph by another vehicle because of that, as they did not expect my car to brake while overtaking a s…

Drive on freeway with Mazda Radar Cruise Control engaged. When the road curves slightly, the radar picks up the car in the right lane next to me as a car in front of me and slams the brakes. It’s a dangerous situation when the traffic is moving at least 65 miles per hour.

While traveling in the left lane on a 2 lane interstate, 79S, the car suddenly braked as I passed a truck in the right lane entering a curve. The "apply brake now" emergency message also flashed on the display. Had a vehicle been closely following behind, it would have crashed into my rear

The vehicle incorrectly sensed a large truck in the right lane, next to the lane I was in, as being in my lane causing the vehicle to slam on the brakes and caused me to nearly get rear ended by following vehicle. Other vehicle had no notice, as my lane was completely clear. Further testing on my part found that numerous vehicles had incorrect lane placement on the provided graphical display. Dealer says everything checks out normal. This is a major safety issue for me.
