Recently reported ELECTRICAL SYSTEM problems on 2009 Mazda Mazda5

Climate control malfunctioning and turning on the heater not ac

While driving the car (approximately 35 miles per hour) there is a sudden loss of power, including loss of power steering. car would not restart. we replaced alternator and had battery checked, which was working fine when the same problem occurred while driving on highway at 45 mph. problem is recurring. car is unsafe to drive.

The alarm keeps going off for no reason. i had this problem for long time. i turn it off and it will go off again, this is almost daily.

In this case i left my lights on causing the battery to run down. the problem with this car is when there is no power it is impossible to open the rear sliding doors or tailgate. only the driver's door opens with a key and you cannot open the rear doors from the inside without power. in the event of an accident that disables the power system these doors cannot be opened and passengers (especially children who are in safety seats) can be trapped. there are 3 rows of 2 bucket seats per row. i feel this car is a death trap and would seriously recommend it not be purchased. *tr

Fire in engine compartment, driver's side near front located at the fan controller unit. electrical high-resistance connection due to improper length of wire in harness causing loose connection in controller unit. *tr
