On the 2022-2025 Mazda CX-60 2.5L PHEV e-Skyactiv, mazda campaign AS007A covers VIN-specific CX-60 PHEV vehicles whose high-voltage control software can register an insulation-resistance fault. RDW says that if the vehicle is stopped while this condition is present, fail-safe mode can prevent the vehicle from powering on again or moving under its own power. Mazda's bulletin for the related North American application of the same AS007A repair process explains that a temporary reduction in measured insulation resistance can be misjudged as electrical leakage and may store P0AA6:00. Campaign inclusion and software are market- and VIN-specific.

This issue also affects: Mazda CX-70

Common Symptoms

  • Hybrid-system warning or electrical-leakage message
  • P0AA6:00 may be stored
  • Vehicle may not power on again after it is stopped and switched off
  • Vehicle may require recovery when fail-safe mode is active

How to Fix

Check the VIN in Mazda's campaign system for the vehicle's market and book an authorised Mazda repairer if AS007A is open. The documented remedy is control-module software reprogramming; it requires no retail repair part. If the hybrid-system warning or leakage message appears, stop only in a safe place and follow the vehicle warning instructions. Do not disconnect the 12V battery or touch high-voltage components to bypass fail-safe mode. If P0AA6:00 remains after the campaign software is completed, Mazda's bulletin says the vehicle must be diagnosed for a genuine insulation fault rather than assuming every recurrence is false detection.

Owner tips & cautions

  • WarningDo not disconnect the 12V battery or handle orange high-voltage wiring to try to clear this warning. Arrange safe recovery and Mazda diagnosis when the vehicle will not restart.
  • TipAsk the dealer to document whether AS007A is open for the VIN, which modules were reprogrammed, and whether P0AA6:00 remains after the campaign.

On the 2022-2025 Mazda CX-60 2.5L e-SKYACTIV PHEV, a CX-60 PHEV that will not begin charging or stops early can have a vehicle-state, timer, supply, EVSE, connector, lock, temperature, communication, or vehicle charging-system cause. The indicator pattern matters: Mazda documents an orange blink when the selector is not in Park, a slow white blink for timer charging, an orange solid indication for a charging-system condition that may be retried after waiting, and a red solid indication for a vehicle fault requiring inspection. Those states do not justify replacing a 12V battery, relay, onboard charger, or charging cable from the symptom alone.

Common Symptoms

  • Charging does not begin
  • Charging stops before the selected limit
  • Orange or red charge-port indicator
  • Charge connector remains locked after the driver's door is unlocked
  • Failure repeats on more than one known-good charging point

How to Fix

Photograph the charge-port indicator and instrument message. Confirm the vehicle is off and in Park, check whether timer charging is active, and verify the building circuit and EVSE show no fault. Inspect the connector and port for damage, water, or foreign material without touching high-voltage components. If safe and permitted by the manual, retry once after waiting and test a known-good compatible charging point to isolate the supply from the vehicle. Unlock the driver's door to release the connector; if the lock does not release, contact Mazda rather than forcing it. A red indicator, charge warning, repeated failure on multiple known-good stations, or damaged port requires an authorised high-voltage diagnosis. Do not disconnect the 12V battery or buy an EVSE, relay, or onboard charger until fault codes and circuit tests identify the failed side.

Owner tips & cautions

  • WarningThe onboard charger and high-voltage system are not DIY test areas. A red charge indicator or charge-system warning requires Mazda inspection, and the connector should never be forced out of the port.
  • TipRecord the indicator color and pattern, timer state, ambient temperature, EVSE model, supply fault indication, state of charge, and whether another known-good station behaves the same way.

On the 2022-2025 Mazda CX-60 2.5L e-SKYACTIV PHEV, the CX-60 PHEV's displayed EV range is an estimate calculated from current high-voltage-battery charge and recent energy consumption, so it can change with temperature, speed, terrain, climate-control use, and driving history and may differ from actual distance. Mazda also changes the usable lower battery boundary when the battery is cold. The engine can start with charge remaining because of selected drive mode, power demand, a steering-wheel shift input, battery condition, temperature control, or fuel and engine-maintenance logic. Those behaviors are not by themselves proof of BECM failure or cell degradation.

Common Symptoms

  • Displayed EV range changes after a full charge
  • Actual EV distance differs from the dashboard estimate
  • Engine starts while the gauge still shows usable charge
  • Cold temperature or climate use reduces available EV distance
  • A sudden persistent loss under comparable conditions may require diagnosis

How to Fix

Separate the estimate from measured performance. Note ambient and battery temperature, state of charge, climate use, route, speed, drive mode, and actual distance and energy used over several comparable full-charge trips. Precondition while connected where supported and compare results in mild conditions. Check the instrument message when the engine starts and confirm no paddle or mode input triggered it. If usable energy or actual EV distance falls abruptly under comparable conditions, charge disappears while parked, a warning appears, or EV mode repeatedly cancels without a documented reason, ask Mazda for campaign status, high-voltage-battery state-of-health data, charging history, relevant DTCs, and BECM diagnosis. AR058A should not be cited as an EV-range recalibration campaign.

Owner tips & cautions

  • TipTrack actual distance and energy across comparable trips; the dashboard number is a forecast, while a persistent change in measured usable energy is the stronger diagnostic signal.
  • WarningA 12V battery, maintainer, relay, or generic multimeter does not correct EV-range estimation or establish high-voltage-battery health.

On the 2022-2025 Mazda CX-60, the Mazda Connect infotainment system is reported to freeze, go to a black screen, or become unresponsive, sometimes early in the car's life. Wired and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto disconnect or drop intermittently, often within a minute or two of connecting, requiring re-pairing or a system reset.

Common Symptoms

  • Infotainment freezes or shows a black/unresponsive screen
  • CarPlay/Android Auto disconnects shortly after connecting
  • Need to reset the head unit or re-pair the phone

How to Fix

A soft reset (hold the Volume/Mute, Nav and Back/Music buttons together ~10 seconds until the screen restarts) clears most freezes. Mazda firmware/software updates at the dealer improve CarPlay/Android Auto and Bluetooth stability. Using a quality direct USB cable (no hubs) and re-pairing the phone reduces dropouts; some owners found removing the SD card helped.

On the 2022-2025 Mazda CX-60 All engines, cX-60 owners report intermittent keyless (touch-sensor) entry failures where the door will not unlock, or the car re-locks instead of unlocking when the handle is touched, even though the indicator flashes. In some cases the tailgate/boot responds to the fob but the front doors do not with either key. Reported contributors include key-fob battery weakness, the request-switch/handle antenna, and keyless control-module software. Owners fall back to the fob buttons or the concealed physical key.

Common Symptoms

  • Door won't unlock on handle touch
  • Car re-locks instead of unlocking
  • Boot unlocks but front doors don't
  • Both keys affected
  • Indicator flashes but no unlock

How to Fix

First replace the fob coin-cell batteries (both keys) and re-test. If the fault persists, have the dealer read the keyless/BCM for handle request-switch and antenna faults, apply any keyless control software update, and replace the door-handle request sensor/antenna if it fails self-test. Keep fobs away from phones/wireless chargers that can desync them.

On the 2023-2025 Mazda CX-60, intermittent Mazda Connect lag, freezing, or Apple CarPlay and Android Auto dropouts can originate in the phone, its operating-system version, the Bluetooth/Wi-Fi registration, connection-mode settings, a USB cable or port, or the vehicle's Mazda Connect software. Mazda also documents that enabling Wi-Fi client mode makes Apple CarPlay USB-only. The symptom alone does not identify an infotainment module, and a generic engine-focused OBD reader is not a repair for it.

Common Symptoms

  • Wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto disconnects
  • Mazda Connect responds slowly or freezes
  • Voice control behaves differently when smartphone integration is active
  • Wired and wireless behavior differs

How to Fix

Record the Mazda Connect software version, phone model and operating-system version, whether the connection is wired or wireless, and the exact failure. Restart the phone, remove the device from Mazda Connect and remove Mazda from the phone, then pair again and verify the selected CarPlay or Android Auto connection mode. Confirm Wi-Fi client mode is not unintentionally forcing USB-only CarPlay. For wired testing, use the correct USB port and a known-good Apple-approved or phone-manufacturer-approved data cable; test another compatible phone to separate a phone problem from a vehicle problem. If the native Mazda interface also freezes or lags with no phone connected, have Mazda check current software, stored module faults, USB hardware, and the control unit before replacing anything.

Owner tips & cautions

  • TipTest native Mazda Connect with the phone disconnected, then test wired and wireless smartphone integration separately. That three-way comparison is more useful than buying a scanner.
  • WarningDo not use undocumented button combinations or disconnect the 12V battery as a routine reset. Preserve the software version and failure details for dealer diagnosis.

On the 2022-2025 Mazda CX-60, mazda's CX-60 manual distinguishes operating conditions from a charger fault. Flashing red means charging is temporarily unavailable because high temperature or a foreign object is detected; solid red means an internal abnormality or failure requiring Mazda inspection. A white flash means charging conditions are not met. Charging efficiency can fall or charging can stop because of phone placement, a case or accessory, phone temperature, device compatibility, vehicle state, or an open door or liftgate. The evidence does not support a universal R015/23 software cure or a replacement charger part for every complaint.

Common Symptoms

  • Qi indicator flashes red and charging stops
  • Qi indicator flashes white and charging does not start
  • Qi indicator stays solid red
  • Charging is slow, intermittent, or stops as the phone or pad heats

How to Fix

Use the LED state first. Start the engine or place the vehicle in the required powered state, close every door and the liftgate, enable Qi charging, remove the phone case and accessories, remove cards or foreign objects, let the phone and pad cool, and center a compatible Qi device on the marked area. If red flashing continues, test another compatible cool device under the same conditions. If the indicator is solid red, or a verified compatible device still fails after the conditions are met, have Mazda diagnose the charger by VIN. Do not order a charger module from this card.

Owner tips & cautions

  • TipPhotograph the indicator color and pattern before moving the phone; flashing red, flashing white, and solid red mean different things in Mazda's manual.
  • WarningA hot phone or pad, a case, an accessory, poor coil alignment, or an open door can interrupt charging without proving the charger module has failed.

On the 2022-2025 Mazda CX-60 2.5L e-SKYACTIV PHEV, the CX-60 PHEV combines its motor and engine with a new eight-speed transmission, an engine-disconnect wet multi-plate clutch, and a mechanical launch clutch rather than a conventional torque converter. A low-speed jerk can occur during a gear change, clutch take-up, or the transition between EV and engine drive, but the feel alone does not identify software, adaptation, clutch hardware, mounts, or another driveline fault. The old card incorrectly named AR058A as a PCM/BECM/TCM shift-quality recall; Mazda's official AR058A document is for the Dash-ESU and associated display and body functions.

Common Symptoms

  • Jerk or lurch during low-speed take-up
  • Rough transition between EV and engine drive
  • Harsh or delayed engagement into Drive or Reverse
  • Shift shock under a repeatable gear, temperature, or load condition
  • Failure to transmit power after braking is a distinct recall symptom

How to Fix

Check the VIN for every open Mazda recall, service campaign, and market-specific software update and record the installed PCM, electric-drive, BECM, and TCM calibration levels. Reproduce the concern with vehicle temperature, state of charge, drive mode, selected gear, speed, throttle position, and the EV-to-engine transition documented. Scan all powertrain modules and complete only the Mazda-directed programming, initial learning, or adaptation procedure that applies to that VIN. If the concern remains, inspect mounts, driveline lash, clutch-control data, fluid level and condition using Mazda's service procedure, and mechanical transmission operation. Do not install generic ATF or a filter kit: verify the exact Mazda fluid specification, service method, and confirmed need first. Treat a failure to move after braking or a warning as a safety issue and check AR043A or its local equivalent immediately.

Owner tips & cautions

  • TipAsk the dealer to write down every installed calibration before and after programming and the exact learning procedure completed; 'software is current' is not enough to audit the repair.
  • WarningDo not use universal ATF or order a filter kit from this symptom. The exact transmission specification, fill procedure, campaign status, and diagnosed failure must control.

On the 2022-2025 Mazda CX-60, because the 8-speed automatic uses a multi-plate clutch pack rather than a torque converter, low-speed manoeuvring is jerky. Owners report lag after lifting and re-applying the accelerator, crunchy/harsh 2nd-gear engagement, a 1-2 upshift shock, and a 1-2 second 'dead' moment with no power when pulling away from roundabouts or junctions, causing the car to lunge forward. Symptoms are worse below about 5°C / in cold weather and in city traffic.

Common Symptoms

  • Jerky or lurching low-speed driving
  • Lag then a lunge when pulling away
  • Harsh or crunchy 2nd gear
  • Hunting up and down gears in Sport mode
  • Worse when cold

How to Fix

Mazda released TCM software updates to reduce 1-2 shift shock (TSB R049/23 for the PHEV, dated July 2023) and further calibration improvements bundled into the AR058A / November 2024 powertrain recall. A dealer MDARS reprogramming of the TCM smooths but does not fully eliminate the behavior, which is partly inherent to the clutch-based transmission design.

On the 2022-2025 Mazda CX-60, the CX-60 uses a single multi-plate wet-clutch automatic instead of a torque converter. On startup (and especially after a long drive followed by an overnight rest), owners report a whirring noise for a few seconds followed by a clunk severe enough to physically rock the car before it settles into idle. It is widely reported on the 3.3L diesel and across the range, and is believed to be a transmission self-test/solenoid actuation rather than a true defect.

Common Symptoms

  • Loud clunk or bang on startup
  • Car rocks or shudders when started
  • Whirring noise for a few seconds before the clunk
  • Worse after a long drive and overnight rest

How to Fix

Mazda has officially stated the noise is 'working as designed' and has not offered a repair for the startup clunk itself. Some shift-quality complaints are addressed by a TCM software update at the dealer (the same MDARS updates rolled into the AR058A/2024 powertrain recall). There is no mechanical fix offered; owners are told it is normal behavior.

On the 2022-2025 Mazda CX-60 3.3L e-Skyactiv D (T3-VPTS diesel), 3.3L diesel CX-60 owners report the diesel particulate filter (DPF) entering active regeneration very often, particularly on short/urban journeys where the exhaust never reaches full temperature. During a regen the engine injects extra fuel to burn off soot, driving instantaneous consumption up to ~15-17 L/100km and dropping average economy to the mid-20s mpg. Owners who do mostly short trips risk incomplete regens, a partially clogged DPF, and eventually a limp-mode/emissions warning. Mazda advises a periodic 30-45 minute higher-speed drive to complete a regen.

Common Symptoms

  • Frequent DPF regeneration cycles
  • Sudden drop in fuel economy to mid-20s mpg
  • Higher idle/cooling-fan running after stopping
  • Diesel smell after short trips
  • DPF or emissions warning light on short-journey use

How to Fix

For short-trip drivers, complete an uninterrupted 30-45 minute motorway drive every 2-3 weeks to allow a full passive/active regen. If a DPF warning appears, have the dealer run a forced/service regeneration and inspect for related Denso injector spray-pattern issues. A heavily loaded DPF that will not regen may require professional cleaning or replacement.

On the 2022-2025 Mazda CX-60 3.3L e-Skyactiv D (T3-VPTS diesel), diesel CX-60 owners report AdBlue-related warnings appearing early (around 13,000 km) and, after topping up, an 'AdBlue overfull' or persistent low-AdBlue message even when the tank (~6.7 L usable) is filled correctly. Overfilling the urea tank can trigger the fault and, in some cases, risks damaging the SCR/urea system. Several owners found the warning self-cleared after roughly 1,000 km of driving without dealer intervention, indicating a sensor/level-reading calibration quirk rather than a true fault.

Common Symptoms

  • AdBlue warning appears early
  • 'AdBlue overfull' message after a correct fill
  • Persistent low-AdBlue message
  • Countdown-to-no-restart warning
  • Warning clears on its own after driving

How to Fix

Add AdBlue in small measured amounts and stop at the filler-neck cutoff; do not top past the neck. If an 'overfull' or low-quality warning persists, drive ~1,000 km and re-check, then have the dealer read SCR/urea level and quality sensor data and recalibrate or replace the level sensor if it is genuinely out of range. Use only ISO 22241 (AUS 32) grade AdBlue.

On the 2022-2025 Mazda CX-60 2.5L e-Skyactiv PHEV (PY-VPTS), cX-60 owners frequently report the fuel pump nozzle shutting off (clicking off) repeatedly during refueling long before the tank is full, forcing them to trickle-fill in small increments. The cause is improper control logic in the fuel-tank vent/air-release valve, which lets fuel back up into the filler pipe and falsely trips the pump's auto-shutoff. Mazda corrected the control logic in production from 29 July 2022; earlier cars need a dealer software update. Aggressive splash-back and fuel odor at the pump are common secondary complaints.

Common Symptoms

  • Fuel pump nozzle clicks off after only a few liters
  • Cannot fill tank to full
  • Fuel splashes back at the filler
  • Long time to refuel
  • Fuel smell while filling

How to Fix

Have the dealer apply the updated fuel-system/PCM control software via MDARS (the same logic change built into post-July-2022 production). As a workaround, insert the nozzle only to the first detent and pump at a slow rate. If the filler neck check valve or ORVR/vent valve is physically faulty, it is inspected and replaced under warranty.

On the 2022-2025 Mazda CX-60 All engines, owners describe pronounced wind noise emanating from the A-pillar/front-door area at highway speed (roughly 120 km/h and up), often likened to sleet or hiss against the windscreen. The noise is traced to door-seal fitment and, in several cases, a loose plastic trim piece separating the front fender from the door aperture that vibrates in the airstream. Adjusting the door alignment/latch or securing the fender-to-door plastic reliably reduces or eliminates the noise.

Common Symptoms

  • Loud wind/hiss from A-pillar at highway speed
  • Noise worsens above ~120 km/h
  • Sounds like sleet hitting the windscreen
  • Noise reduces when pressing on the door
  • One side louder than the other

How to Fix

Have the dealer inspect and, if needed, re-adjust the front door striker/alignment and reseat or replace the door weatherstrip. Owners have also cured it by securing the loose fender-edge plastic trim (dealer clip/tape or replacement of the retaining clips). Poorly seated weatherstrip should be reseated so it seals evenly against the A-pillar.

On the 2022-2025 Mazda CX-60 All engines, a recurring NVH complaint is a rattle/knock from the B-pillar and door area, most noticeable over rough roads or at higher speeds (owners cite it becoming clear around 160 km/h and getting louder over time). Causes identified across the shared Large Platform include worn/loose seat-belt height-adjuster glide rails inside the B-pillar, a door-latch mechanism sized slightly small so it rubs, and fender/door plastic that transmits vibration up to ear level. This is distinct from the rear-suspension knock covered elsewhere.

Common Symptoms

  • Rattle/knock from B-pillar on rough roads
  • Noise increases with speed
  • Rattle from door trim area
  • Gets louder/more frequent over time
  • Seat-belt area buzz

How to Fix

Have the dealer locate the source: replacing the B-pillar seat-belt glide rails (front and/or rear), adding felt/anti-rattle padding inside the B-pillar trim, and adjusting or replacing an undersized door latch have all resolved cases. Reseating the fender-to-door plastic trim also helps where vibration is transmitted from there.
