2021 Mazda CX-5 - ENGINE Failure Complaint (#afdb00)

2021 Mazda CX-5

  • Date of Incident: May-24, 2023
  • Date complaint filed: Jun-01, 2023
  • Failed components: ENGINE

Just before taking the vehicle for a second oil change at a total of 11,664 miles or approximately 7,000 miles between changes, i noticed that the oil level was at least 1 quart below normal. I added oil to make sure that it was above the add point on the dipstick. I researched and found several other complaints about other 2021 mazda turbo engines with the same complaint. I'm concerned that this excessive use of oil will damage the internal parts of the engine.
