On the 2024-2025 Mazda CX-90 e-Skyactiv PHEV 2.5L four-cylinder plug-in hybrid, on the plug-in hybrid CX-90 (2.5L four-cylinder PHEV, e-Skyactiv PHEV), improper inverter control software can set malfunction indicators and cause a loss of drive power while the vehicle is operating in EV mode. Unlike the mild-hybrid stalling campaigns, this one is specific to the PHEV's traction inverter, which converts high-voltage DC to the AC that drives the traction motor — when its control logic faults, the powertrain drops to a fail-safe with little or no propulsion, potentially in traffic. It was released as one part of Mazda's multi-module 7024J program (NHTSA split the program into 24V815, 24V816 and 24V817 by affected system and population), so a CX-90 PHEV may show more than one open 7024J campaign against its VIN. This is a distinct campaign from the PHEV charging-system faults and from the 48V mild-hybrid battery imbalance fault.

Common Symptoms

  • Loss of drive power while operating in EV mode
  • Multiple malfunction indicator lights illuminate
  • Hybrid system warning message in the instrument cluster
  • Vehicle drops into fail-safe / reduced power
  • Warning chimes accompanying the power loss

How to Fix

A free recall remedy exists. Under NHTSA 24V817000 (Mazda campaign 7024J) dealers install improved inverter software at no cost. Because 7024J spans several control modules, ask the dealer to run the full VIN recall query and complete every open 7024J sub-campaign in one visit rather than only the one on the letter, and have them confirm 7124J (Dash ESU) status at the same time. If drive power is lost with the high-voltage system disabled, do not attempt to keep driving — the vehicle should be flat-bedded, and a stall-in-traffic event should be reported to NHTSA at nhtsa.gov/report-a-safety-problem so it is on the record. No customer-pay repair applies to the recalled condition.

On the 2024-2025 Mazda CX-90, on 3.3 Turbo / Turbo S mild-hybrid (MHEV) CX-90s, one or more of the 12 cells in the 48-volt MHEV battery can become voltage-imbalanced, storing DTC P0DAB (cell voltage variation). The vehicle illuminates the engine malfunction warning, drops to an engine-only fail-safe mode, and disables M Hybrid Boost, i-stop, and regenerative braking; CX-90 forum owners report dealers calling the car unsafe to drive. This 48V MHEV battery fault is distinct from the inverter/PCM software loss-of-power recalls (7024J / 24V815 / 24V817).

Common Symptoms

  • Engine malfunction / warning light illuminated
  • Loss of motor assist (M Hybrid Boost) and weaker acceleration
  • i-stop and regenerative braking stop working
  • Dealer warns the vehicle could lose power
  • Limp / fail-safe engine-only mode

How to Fix

This is handled as a Mazda technical service / warranty (MSP) matter, not the software recalls: when DTC P0DAB is confirmed, the 48-volt MHEV battery is replaced under warranty per Mazda's MHEV battery service procedure (NHTSA TSB document MC-11016241). NOTE: do NOT conflate this with Safety Recall 7024J (NHTSA 24V816) or 24V815/24V817, which are inverter/PCM/ECM software reflashes for separate loss-of-power DTCs (e.g., P0A2B) and do not address P0DAB cell imbalance.

On the 2024-2025 Mazda CX-90, improper software in the Dash Electrical Supply Unit (ESU) on 2024-2025 CX-90s can cause multiple systems to fail to initialize at startup: the front windshield defroster, the seat-belt warning, the 360-degree view monitor, and (on PHEV) the high-voltage battery cooling system may all be inoperative, with multiple cluster warning messages. An inoperable defroster reduces visibility and a non-functioning HV cooling system risks the PHEV battery, increasing crash risk. About 80,915 CX-90/CX-70 units are affected.

Common Symptoms

  • Front defroster does not turn on at startup
  • Seat-belt warning chime/light missing
  • 360-degree / surround-view camera unavailable
  • PHEV high-voltage battery cooling not operating
  • Multiple cluster warning messages at startup, sometimes cleared by restart

How to Fix

Mazda Safety Recall 7124J (NHTSA 24V814): dealer reprograms the Dash ESU with improved software at no charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 18, 2024. If these systems fail to come on at startup, restart the vehicle as an interim step and schedule the recall reprogram promptly.

On the 2024-2025 Mazda CX-90, 2024 CX-90 owners report a sudden, unexpected increase in steering effort, most noticeable at higher speeds or mid-corner, traced to a steering gear defect where a spring applies excessive force to the worm gear, displacing grease and raising friction. Mazda recalled 43,752 MY2024 vehicles (NHTSA 24V022 / Mazda 6524A) in January 2024, but NHTSA opened Recall Query RQ26002 in January 2026 after 26 complaints of the condition recurring AFTER the recall repair, with two crashes potentially linked.

Common Symptoms

  • Steering wheel suddenly becomes hard to turn
  • Increased steering effort returns after the recall repair
  • Notchy or 'sticky' feel mid-corner or at highway speed
  • Steering effort varies unexpectedly

How to Fix

Have the recall (24V022 / Mazda 6524A) performed — dealer replaces the steering gear spring and reapplies grease at no charge. Because the original remedy has not held for some owners, affected drivers should document any recurrence in writing, file an NHTSA complaint, and watch for a supplemental Mazda bulletin from the RQ26002 investigation; some recurrence cases may require steering gear/rack replacement.

On the 2024-2026 Mazda CX-90, cX-90 owners report that after starting the vehicle the electronic shift-by-wire selector will not come out of Park: the P indicator stays lit, the lever moves but the transmission stays in Park, and the vehicle cannot be driven. Mazda documented the condition in dealer bulletin SA-065-23 (intermittent inability to shift out of P after starting) with a companion bulletin SA-018-24 on parking lock mechanism operation. The CX-90 uses a monostable electronic shifter with a solenoid-operated park lock rather than a mechanical linkage, so the release depends on the vehicle reaching a 'ready on' state and on brake-switch and shift-control module inputs — part of why the vehicle also enforces a short delay after power-up before Park will release. Owners have also been stranded when a depleted 12V battery leaves the vehicle locked in Park with no mechanical release path, which is why this failure regularly turns into a tow.

Common Symptoms

  • Cannot shift out of Park after starting the vehicle
  • P indicator remains illuminated regardless of lever movement
  • Shift lever moves but the transmission does not engage a gear
  • Vehicle immobilized in a driveway, garage or on a trailer
  • Condition intermittent and often clears after an ignition cycle

How to Fix

First, confirm the intended sequence: wait for the 'ready on' indication, then allow the full delay (roughly three seconds) with the brake firmly applied before selecting D or R — many complaints resolve here and no repair is needed. For genuine faults, Mazda's SA-065-23 procedure has the technician turn the ignition ON, wait 10 seconds and cycle the selector into and out of Park ten times to re-learn the park lock mechanism, with shift control module reprogramming where indicated; SA-018-24 covers park lock mechanism operation when relearning does not hold. All of this is warranty-covered on a vehicle this new. Because the park lock is electric, keep the 12V battery healthy — a weak or dead 12V battery will leave the vehicle locked in Park, and the emergency park release procedure in the owner's manual should be located before you need it. Out of warranty, expect roughly $150-$600 for diagnosis plus shift control module or park-lock actuator work.

On the 2024-2025 Mazda CX-90 e-Skyactiv G 3.3L turbocharged inline-six (48V mild hybrid), distinct from the general low-speed take-up hesitation, CX-90 owners report a specific audible event on the 1-2 upshift when accelerating away from a complete stop: a bark, hoot, crunch, chirp or honk from under the floor accompanied by a vibration through the seat and pedals. Mazda documented the condition in a technical service bulletin and attributed it to improper hydraulic pressure control inside the eight-speed automatic. The mechanism matters here — this gearbox has no torque converter. Engagement is handled by a wet multi-plate clutch pack driven by an electro-hydraulic circuit, so when apply pressure is mistimed the clutch plates slip-stick audibly instead of being damped by fluid coupling, which is why the noise has no analogue in Mazda's transverse FWD automatics. Mazda's countermeasure was modified TCM control software; a separate bulletin covers a transmission part design change shared with the CX-70.

Common Symptoms

  • Bark, hoot, crunch, chirp or honk noise during the 1-2 upshift
  • Noise occurs only when accelerating from a complete stop
  • Vibration felt through the floor, seat and pedals with the noise
  • Harsh or clunky engagement as the clutch pack takes up
  • Noise more pronounced when cold or on a light-throttle launch

How to Fix

Have the dealer verify and apply the latest transmission control module software — Mazda modified TCM control logic specifically to correct the hydraulic pressure control that causes the 1-2 shift noise and vibration, and this is warranty work on a vehicle this new. Complete every open powertrain software recall at the same visit (the 7024J family of PCM/ECM reprograms) since they interact with shift scheduling. Ask the technician to road-test from a complete stop and reproduce the noise before and after, and to note it on the repair order — documented repeat attempts are what qualify a car under state lemon statutes if the noise persists. Where software does not resolve it, the transmission part design change bulletin issued for CX-70/CX-90 is the next step; do not accept a driveline or exhaust-heat-shield diagnosis for a noise that occurs only on the 1-2 shift. Some residual clutch-pack feel at low speed is inherent to the architecture and will not be tuned out entirely.

On the 2024-2025 Mazda CX-90, on 2024-2025 CX-90 mild-hybrid (MHEV) models, ethanol in pump fuel reacts with materials on the fuel-level sender circuit board in the sub-tank, causing the instrument-cluster fuel gauge to read inaccurately high. Drivers can run out of fuel and stall with fuel still indicated, and the engine cannot be restarted, raising crash risk. The recall covers about 104,854 MHEV CX-90/CX-70 units (88,798 MY2024-2025 CX-90 plus 16,056 MY2025 CX-70); PHEV models are not affected.

Common Symptoms

  • Fuel gauge reads higher than the actual fuel level
  • Vehicle runs out of fuel / stalls with fuel still indicated
  • Inconsistent or erratic fuel gauge needle
  • Range-to-empty estimate inaccurate

How to Fix

Mazda Safety Recall 7825I (NHTSA 25V568): dealer reprograms the body control module (BCM) software at no charge to correct the fuel-level calculation. Owner notification letters were scheduled around November 1, 2025. Until repaired, refuel earlier than the gauge suggests and track mileage rather than relying on the gauge or range-to-empty estimate.

On the 2024-2025 Mazda CX-90, 2024-2025 CX-90 owners widely report the central infotainment display intermittently freezing or blanking — sometimes taking out the backup/360 camera and navigation — plus frequent dropouts of wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto that require re-pairing, with some owners saying it only stays connected via USB. These are software/connectivity defects reported across the owner community and in long-term press reviews, separate from any recall.

Common Symptoms

  • Center screen freezes or goes black while driving
  • Backup / 360 camera image lost when the screen freezes
  • Wireless CarPlay/Android Auto disconnects and must be re-paired
  • CarPlay only stays connected via USB cable
  • Bluetooth fails to connect intermittently

How to Fix

A forced infotainment reset (press and hold Volume/Mute, Nav, and Back/Music buttons for about 10 seconds) typically restores the screen. For CarPlay dropouts, re-pair the phone and keep the head unit software updated; dealers apply connectivity software updates. Persistent freezing that disables the camera warrants a documented service visit.
