Service bulletins for the 2019 Mazda CX-5

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

SA-051-252025-12-05. Service bulletin. STEERING; SUSPENSION; POWER TRAIN; WHEELS. Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) Diagnostic Guidelines Diagnostic Guidelines When diagnosing NVH concerns, it is essential to first classify the issue into one of three primary categories: Noise, Vibration, or Harshness. Many customer complaints may involve overlapping symptoms, such as both noise and vibration, so identifying the dominant characteristic is critical. Once the primary symptom is determined, follow the appropriate diagnostic path. For example, if a concern includes both noise and vibration but is related to vehicle speed, the vibration diagnostic path should be followed. When considering component replacement during the diagnostic process, it is best practice to start with the lowest cost or most accessible part unless diagnostic evidence clearly identifies a more expensive or complex component as the root cause. This approach helps minimize repair costs and avoids unnecessary part replacements. For example, a growling or bearing whine noise may be mistakenly attributed to internal components in the differential, transfer unit, or transmission, when the actual source is a wheel bearing. Misdiagnosis like this can lead to unnecessary repairs, added time and cost. To help prevent this, always follow the guidelines in the repair procedure.
02-003-232023-11-01. Service bulletin. SUSPENSION. Some customers may complain of signs of oil on the struts or shock absorbers. In most cases the oil that is present is normal, and a result of the oil that remains on the shaft during the normal sweeping process of the shaft seal. Follow the inspection guidelines below to determine if the condition is a result of the normal sweeping process or a failure of the shaft seal.
02-004-22a2022-12-02. Service bulletin. SUSPENSION. Some customers may complain of signs of oil on the struts or shock absorbers. In most cases the oil that is present is normal, and a result of the oil that remains on the shaft during the normal sweeping process of the shaft seal. Follow the inspection guidelines below to determine if the condition is a result of the normal sweeping process or a failure of the shaft seal.
02-002-222022-08-04. Service bulletin. SUSPENSION. Some customers may complain about oil seepage or oil leakage from the rear shock absorbers. This concern may be due to a lack of sealing performance. To eliminate the oil seepage/leakage, the rear shock absorbers production process has been modified.
02-004-222022-06-04. Service bulletin. SUSPENSION. Some customers may complain of signs of oil on the struts or shock absorbers. In most cases the oil that is present is normal, and a result of the oil that remains on the shaft during the normal sweeping process of the shaft seal. Follow the inspection guidelines below to determine if the condition is a result of the normal sweeping process or a failure of the shaft seal.
02-002/222022-04-05. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT; SUSPENSION; EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY. Some customers may complain about oil seepage or oil leakage from the rear shock absorbers. This concern may be due to a lack of sealing performance. To eliminate the oil seepage/leakage, the rear shock absorbers production process has been modified.
SA-006-222022-03-04. Service bulletin. SUSPENSION:FRONT:WHEEL BEARING; POWER TRAIN. There have been warranty claims submitted for growling or bearing whine noise in differentials, transfer units and transmissions where the source of the noise was a wheel bearing. This misdiagnosis can lead to multiple repair attempts, warranty debits, and additional inconvenience and/or cost to the customer. To reduce the chance of this occurring, please follow the steps outlined in the repair procedure.
02-001-21-37662021-02-05. Service bulletin. SUSPENSION. Some customers may complain about oil seepage or oil leakage from the rear shock absorbers.

02-007-20-37292020-10-02. Service bulletin. SUSPENSION. Some customers may complain about oil seepage or oil leakage from the rear shock absorbers. This concern may be due to a lack of sealing performance. To eliminate the oil seepage/leakage, the rear shock absorbers production process has been modified.

DRW162018-12-17. Service bulletin. SUSPENSION:REAR:SPRINGS:LEAF SPRING ASSEMBLY:HANGER/BRACKET; STRUCTURE. Dealer Rework (DRW) 16 ? 2019 CX-5 (KF) Interference of Silencer Hanger: We are writing to inform you that certain 2019MY CX-5 vehicles, may be affected by the concern mentioned below. Vehicles affected by this DRW will be visible in eMDCS on November 06, 2018. The VIN list of affected vehicles for DRW16 will be uploaded to MGSS along with Parts and Warranty Information on November 06, 2018. Affected vehicles are expected to arrive at your dealership starting November 06, 2018 and as of today most vehicles are not assigned to any dealership. Certain subject CX-5 vehicles may exhibit an abnormal noise from the left rear side of the vehicle when driving on a bumpy road. Causal factor: The exhaust hanger bracket on the left rear side of the main silencer and the hanger rod mounted on the body side may interfere between each other due to narrow gap. Action Required: Please hold the affected vehicles in inventory until the inspection and/or repair procedure has been performed. This DRW must be performed before the vehicle is sold and is a requirement for a New Car Ready Claim.
