Recalls vs. other years
No recall campaigns are on file for the 2021 CX-5, the fewest of the six model years we cover (2016–2021); the busiest has 5.
-
Where complaints cluster
Complaints concentrate on the engine: 43% of the 148 on file. The top components are engine (63), power train (15) and electrical system (10, of which 2 mention a crash and 1 an injury). Across all 148 reports, 10 describe a crash and 6 at least one injury.
-
Recent reports
28 complaints (19% of the total) were filed in the last 12 months, so owners are still reporting problems, most often about the engine (8).

Changes from 2020
On the public record the 2021 matches the 2020: EPA lists the same engines, transmissions and drive types, and the same recall campaigns cover both years.
-
Fuel economy and running cost
Its most efficient version (2.5-litre 4-cylinder) is rated 28 mpg combined, close to the median for the 2021 SUVs we cover (median 27 mpg across 46 other EPA listings); the thirstiest version is rated 24 mpg. At 15,000 miles a year and the national average regular gasoline price of $4.28 (EIA, week of Oct 19, 2026), fuel would cost about $2,290 a year in the most efficient version and about $2,680 in the thirstiest.

What owners told NHTSA
Short excerpts from owner reports submitted to NHTSA. They are unverified and describe one vehicle each.
“The contact owns a 2021 Mazda CX-5. The contact stated that while driving 50 MPH and the check engine warning light illuminated.”
“Engine developed a major oil leak at 70,000 miles, with multiple seals leaking. This appears to be a known defect with these vehicles and owners should not be bearing the cost for repairs.”
“The vehicle's Connectivity Master Unit (CMU) suffers from a severe, persistent electronic hardware malfunction that causes the central information display and dashboard telemetry to blink, cycle, and drop signals erratically.”
