Multiple instances while driving on the highway with cruise control and lane keep assist on - on a bend slight turn the car veered into the other lane across the lane lines - even with other cars present. Additionally, it does not auto steer away from a blind spot collision - had I not noticed the car there would have been an accident.

While driving at a speed just under 45 mph, my Mazda CX-70 suddenly displayed and chimed “Hybrid System Malfunction. Have Vehicle Inspected.“. This warning startled me because I am familiar with issues since I had briefly owned a CX-90 PHEV the first year this model came out and it had the same exact problem. I discovered that this issue carries serious safety concerns and ended up convincing the dealer to swap the vehicle for a CX-90 inline 6 gas only model after hours of pleading. I ended up signing up for another lease a couple of years later with this current CX-70 PHEV, as I was told that the “bugs” have pretty much been worked out so I would give it another try. This warning continued to stay on as I drove for a few minutes so I immediately took the car straight to the Mazda dealership service department where it was kept 24 hours. The dealer said that the issue resolved itself - something to do with not driving the vehicle interchangeably enough between gas and EV mode. The photo was taken once I slowed down to stop at an intersection since it took me 15 minutes to drive to the dealer.

There have been several false blind spot monitoring alerts since I received vehicle. It seems to get worse with time. Now on freeway trips it’s almost constant leaving no trust with alerts

This has occurred numerous times. Using the adaptive cruise control, the vehicle decelerates as I approach a slower moving vehicle. That is what it should do. When I move from the right lane to the open left lane, instead of accelerating back to the set cruise speed, the car decelerates as much as 10 mph before finally regaining its mind and accelerating to the set speed. I have had cars following me that are expecting my car to accelerate that are surprised that the car decelerates. This happens on straight roads with no car ahead of me in the left lane.

This happens often. On a trip to Florida of 1200 miles, it happened 12 times each way. After being slowed in the right lane by a car in front driving slower tan my set cruise speed, I signal and move to an empty (in front of me) left lane. Instead of accelerating to resume my set cruise speed, the car decelerates abruptly by as much as 10 mph. If a car is following me and most logically is expecting me to accelerate after moving to the left lane, that car's driver is surprised and risks rear ending me. I took the car in to service this issue. Mazda has a Service Alert (SA-007/24. The conclusion of the SA is basically it is what it is. I think that this is a serious safety issue. I have a 2016 Subaru Outback with adaptive cruise control and it never does this. Maxda's system is deficient. The NHTSB should analyze and compare adaptive cruise control systems.
