Recently reported ELECTRICAL SYSTEM problems on 2018 Mazda CX-5

First noticed in a shopping center parking lot. i was distracted by something and did not put car transmission shift control in park. i touched engine start/ stop switch and engine turns off as it should. i proceeded to exit the car and noticed it rolling away. since i was still in car, i realized what happened an corrected the oversight. most people are used to key ignition and can not pull key unless tranny is in park. this is a safety issue and should be corrected.

On two separate occasions in the last month, during key on/startup/initialization, i will get an adaptive cruise control/aeb/lane keeping system failure. this is due to a fault in the camera module. adaptive cruise control still works above 20 mph indicating that the failure is in the camera module. failure is latched for the key cycle and but will recover after a long key cycle. 1st time the failure set, it was very warm out so i believed this was due to an overheat. the second time the failure set the temperature was in a normal range so my hypothesis is wrong. no unusual situation is occurring at startup except the failure. have not taken to the dealer yet.

Car burst into flames while driving on highway, unknown cause, suspect electrical or fuel system related
