My 2007 mazda5 power steering stopped worked abruptly while turning on a major highway. The sudden change in steering nearly caused an accident. I checked the ODB reader for codes but none were present. Then it happened again the next day in a similar situation, the power steering shut off but this time we were able to see the dash light for the power steering failure come on. It kicked back in a minute later. Again no codes in the scanner. Upon researching how to fix this issue my search revealed that 2007-2009 Mazda 5s have a recall for this exact critical failure. My next step was to call the local dealership to schedule a fix, however they told me that our specific vehicle (according to the VIN) was not under that recall, regardless of the vehicle doing precisely what was recalled. Please review the recall if you can, this is likely affecting more vehicles than Mazda is admitting to and is extremely dangerous.

There IS major leaking from multiple unknown sources, one place the water hides IS in the spare tire wheel well and it was not evident at first as to why the car was molding on the inside. It has terrible microbial growth that IS evident and I can only imagine what I cant see. The car to my knowledge has never been in any accident to cause this. Had the heater core replaced because I was told that could be a reason why there IS water in floor , it was replaced and I was informed that there was nothing wrong with the original one.. That was a year ago, and it has only gotten worse . When it rains the car IS soaked even when the water that IS in the wheel well IS sucked up... I have seen other similar complaints online, I just don't know what to do . I have children one that has autism and asthma and this IS my only source of transportation .... Insurance claim was filed and they covered a carpet clean... The source(s) IS not fixed or known!! The sunroof lines have been ruled out as well they are clean...

Sudden power steering loss while driving on an entry ramp of a highway, accompanied by illumination of multiple lights on the dashboard. Steering loss occurred while vehicle steering wheel was turned and vehicle was in motion and preparing to merge onto highway. Steering wheel suddenly and violently jerked from my hands, causing the vehicle to steer in the direction off the road. Dash lights (including power steering) flashed intermittently, however would remain constantly on when steering was pulled from center position. Power steering loss was spontaneous, intermittent, and without warning. vehicle did not record any diagnostic fault codes while lights were displayed. symptoms vehicle displayed coincide with "recall summary" found documented on nhtsa recall 10v374000 for the 2007 mazda5. incident occurred briefly at low speeds while parking on 08/23/2019 and resolved after vehicle was turned off and restarted. incident reoccurred while merging onto highway at high rate of speed as described above on 08/25/2019. while incident occurs and lights illuminated on dashboard, the steering wheel motion IS very restricted and the wheel automatically forces itself back to the center (neutral) position. The lights on the dashboard will remain constantly illuminated with any movement of the steering wheel away from the center/neutral position. The radio also has hello displayed, as if the vehicle was just started, even though the vehicle IS in motion and was never turned off.

The sliding doors seem to be frozen and they will not latch properly. one day while my daughters were in the car with me the doors slid open after I drove away and they thought they had closed the doors. the other two days the door did not slide open but the light indicated the door was open but we hadn't used the doors we only unlocked them.

The car has less than 68,000 miles. Diagnosed as all suspension needing to be replaced. The mechanic diagnosing said, " I wouldn't let my mom drive that car" and that the suspension could blow out at any time while driving. All the arms of the suspension are bad/haywire and need to be replaced. I noticed that other 2007 mazda 5S have been recalled for the same problem. How I would wish that someone would please check if this 2007mazda5 should also be recalled-even though it was manufactured in a different timeframe than those currently in recall. It's a possibility you know. Please help. There IS a very loud rattling sound, thudding of tires when driving at any speed and the back tires don't follow or "rotate" when turning-they "swing" and stay still, as if they lock. Also, the car floods extensively when it rains.

Referring to a december 18, 2006 recall nhtsa campaign ID number: 06v463000. Regarding a problem with the sliding door coming open when driving during cold weather. My vehicle has this problem which IS gradually becoming worse as time goes by. Mazda says my vin # was not included so they will not fix it under the recall. If that IS the case and they were aware of the problem when my vehicle was manufactured, am I not correct in assuming that this modification should have be rectified before the vehicle was sold. I think mazda should be liable to include my vehicle in as part of this recall. I live in utah. *tr

I'm concerned and can't drive my car after an incident when the steering wheel suddenly stiffened. More so since roads are icy this time of year. If the manufacturer IS liable, I would rather have them shoulder the expense for the fix. Would appreciate a fast reaction into this issue.

I then turn the car off and I am able to steer again for about 2-3 min before this happens again. I called mazda and they are saying my vin IS not part of the recall #60108 when clearly this IS the same problem that the mazdas were having with 2007/08 models. I've called mazda and they will not honor this recall.

The recall follows an investigation from the national highway traffic safety administration (nhtsa), looking into power-steering system failures in the 2007-2009 mazda3. Altogether, 33 complaints were received and three crashes were attributed to the issue. the recall affects about 300,000 north american vehicles altogether, including some 2007 models, all 2008 models, and most 2009 models of the mazda3 and mazda5. A mazda source told the publication that rust contamination in the vehicles' hydraulic steering system can cause the pump to overheat and shut down, sometimes temporarily. A service bulletin has already been out for more than a year. *tr

The subject vehicles have electro-hydraulic power assist steering (EHPAS).The complaint counts shown above alleged a loss of power steering assist in the subject vehicles.Usually, but not always, the loss is accompanied by the simultaneous lighting of an indicator light on the dash.The complaints include 14 alleged crashes involving 6 injuries.On Mazda3 and Mazda5 vehicles manufactured from April 2, 2007 through November 30, 2008, rust may have formed inside the EPAS high-pressure pipe during manufacture due to improper processing.If the rust is present it may damage the power steering pump bearings leading to an increased load on the electric motor; this results in an elevated operating temperature for the EPAS system.To prevent excessive overheating of the system, which could potentially cause permanent damage, afailsafe mode which de-powers the electric pump is implemented.This causes a loss of power assist making it more difficult to steer the vehicle, especially at lower vehicle speeds.Once the failsafe is implemented the EPAS system will remain disabled until the ignition is turned off.However EPAS will be re-enabled if the operating temperature is reduced (i.e., within an acceptable range) on a subsequent drive cycle.On August 8, 2010 Mazda submitted a Part 573 defect information report initiating Safety Recall 10V-374 to remedy the subject vehicles.The report, which contains additional details on the remedy repair, is available at http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/recalls/.ODI notes that the affected population shown in that report includes approximately 8,000 vehicles Mazda repaired prior to initiating the recall.

- 11007022Some vehicles may experience exterior trim heat damage such (melted, separating, etc.) when parked near a glass building or Low-E windows. This may be caused by the sun's reflection.
- 11007019If you encounter any type of electrical concern (e.g, dead battery, engine no start, DTC(s) stored...), interview the customer before proceeding with normal MGSS diagnosis by asking if any aftermarket devices have been installed. Aftermarket devices may be the cause of the electrical concern. Below are a few examples of unusual electrical concerns caused by aftermarket devices.
- 11006987In accordance with Federal regulations, follow the procedure listed below when replacing a speedometer. NOTE: Tampering with a motor vehicle odometer is strictly prohibited by Federal, and State laws. It is the dealers responsibility to comply with Federal, State, and local laws concerning odometer and related documentation requirements when providing a repair or replacement. Mazda vehicles are manufactured with tamper-proof speedometers. When a speedometer is replaced, the new speedometer will read zero (0) miles. This procedure is extremely important to accurately represent actual vehicle mileage. Prior to speedometer removal, complete the information required on the Speedometer Replacement Label. Labels can only be ordered through Mazda eStore. In an effort to achieve a higher level of Customer Experience and retain the value of Mazdas vehicles, MNAO Warranty Operations is allowing all Mazda dealers to utilize a third party, SPECMO Enterprises, Inc., for Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) odometer setting service. With the use of SPECMOs services, it is possible that the odometer will be set between 10 to 31 miles over the odometer mileage at the time of replacement for both warranty and customer pay repairs. Please make sure that the customer is aware that there may be a slight variance to the odometer, in which case the customer may have to accept the slightly higher mileage. Since odometer setting service is not part of the warranty repair, it is not warrantable nor required, but optional. However, Mazda Warranty policy provides after- warranty assistance (AWA) or DSA that can be utilized to cover this service expense.

- 10206002Automatic Transmission/Transaxle Cooler and Lines Flushing Procedure: Automatic Transaxle/Transmission (A/T) oil cooler and lines must be power flushed completely before an overhauled or replacement A/T is installed (except SKYACTIV-DRIVE). The most common cause of repeat A/T failures is lack of lubrication to the front and rear planetary gears. This is usually caused by an accumulation of metal particles and debris (from a previous A/T failure) on the internal mesh type baffle of the oil cooler. Power flushing will remove the restriction by back flushing, followed by forward flushing to dislodge a restriction, then back flushing again. This will in turn ensure full ATF flow for the transmission when it is operating.
