I have the 2.5 liter turbocharged engine in my CX-30. It currently has approximately 18,000 miles after a little over a year of ownership. So far I have had to put in 3 quarts of oil in that time. The engine/low oil indicator comes on about every 4,000 miles. When I check the oil, it shows that it is down a quart. I have taken it in for regular service (oil and filter, tire rotation) twice now, and have brought this to the attention of the service advisor who tells me that this is normal for turbo engines. I disagree with this assessment. I wi…

I am reporting a repeated and potentially dangerous transmission failure in my 2020 Mazda CX30. At 6 months old, the original transmission failed. Mazda confirmed it was defective and replaced it with a refurbished unit with 10,000 miles on it. That replacement is now also failing, within 4 years of the first failure. This means the car has experienced two transmission failures before reaching 5 years of service. This raises concerns about: •The reliability of Mazda’s factory parts •The quality and safety of refurbished transmissions Mazda use…
