NHTSA investigation activity
Agency record · No closure date in index
Momentary increase in steering effort after recall remedy
The 2024 CX-90 is listed in this investigation record. An investigation concerns an agency inquiry; its opening is not a final defect determination, and closure alone is not a finding that every vehicle is safe or repaired.
Agency summary excerpt: “The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 26 complaints and several Early Warning Reporting (EWR) Field Reports alleging intermittent and brief increases in steering effort (described as “sticky steering”) during the drive cycle in model year (MY) 2024 CX-90 …”
Agency disposition and source
Recall 24V022 addresses a sudden and unexpected change of steering effort while driving caused by excessive worm gear friction force. After receiving the recall 24V022 remedy, consumers report sudden increases of steering effort while driving. ODI is opening this Recall Query (RQ) to assess the adequacy of the remedy for Recall 24V022 and to identify the cause(s) of the conditions leading to the post-remedy reports.

Momentary increase in steering effort after recall remedy
The 2025 CX-90 is listed in this investigation record. An investigation concerns an agency inquiry; its opening is not a final defect determination, and closure alone is not a finding that every vehicle is safe or repaired.
Agency summary excerpt: “The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 26 complaints and several Early Warning Reporting (EWR) Field Reports alleging intermittent and brief increases in steering effort (described as “sticky steering”) during the drive cycle in model year (MY) 2024 CX-90 …”
Agency disposition and source
Recall 24V022 addresses a sudden and unexpected change of steering effort while driving caused by excessive worm gear friction force. After receiving the recall 24V022 remedy, consumers report sudden increases of steering effort while driving. ODI is opening this Recall Query (RQ) to assess the adequacy of the remedy for Recall 24V022 and to identify the cause(s) of the conditions leading to the post-remedy reports.

Model year 2026
2026 Mazda CX-90
No safety-recall campaign was supplied for this model year in the indexed search. That is not a current VIN clearance. Owner-report entries are most numerous in electrical systems and software (4) and equipment and other reported systems (2). 110 manufacturer communications are organized separately below so workshop instructions are not mistaken for confirmed owner failures. Start with any applicable safety instructions, then match the service documents and reported conditions to the actual repair orders.

Repair chronology
Turn every CX-90 visit into a usable timeline.
Place the final repair orders in date and mileage order. Compare the customer complaint, technician findings, correction, and post-repair result instead of relying only on a dealer summary or online discussion.
Do not combine multiple visits into one estimate. Open and close dates, mileage, parts delays, diagnostic time, and the date the vehicle was actually available can answer different questions.

2Complaint in the driver’s words
3Diagnosis and testing performed
4Parts, software, or correction
5Days unavailable and post-repair result
California legal framework
The statute applies to the evidence—not the badge.
California Civil Code section 1793.2 addresses warranty repair obligations and, in specified circumstances, replacement or restitution after a reasonable number of repair attempts. Section 1793.22 defines the Tanner presumption and “nonconformity.” Those provisions require a fact-specific analysis.
Applicable warranty
Identify the written coverage in effect when the concern was presented.
Repair opportunity
Show when and how the manufacturer or authorized facility received the vehicle.
Substantial impairment
Document the effect on use, value, or safety rather than relying on labels.
Remedy analysis
Compare restitution, replacement, negotiated resolutions, offsets, and supporting damages.
Warranty and escalation record
Separate the Mazda CX-90 warranty from other contracts.
A manufacturer warranty, certified coverage, dealer promise, and separately purchased service contract may have different obligors and terms. Preserve each document instead of calling all coverage an “extended warranty.”
Save every Mazda dealer message, repair authorization, parts-delay explanation, manufacturer case number, and written response. A phone call may matter, but a dated email, text, or letter usually makes the sequence easier to prove.
Primary and practical sources
Verify the law, vehicle, and warranty separately.

Clear answers
Mazda CX-90 lemon law questions
Can a Mazda CX-90 qualify under California lemon law?
It may, but the model name alone does not decide eligibility. A review should match the exact vehicle to an applicable written warranty and examine the repair opportunities, recurring nonconformity, mileage, downtime, and effect on use, value, or safety.
How many CX-90 repair attempts are required?
There is no universal count that decides every case. California’s Tanner presumption describes specific circumstances, but claims can require a broader analysis of whether the manufacturer had a reasonable opportunity to repair the warranty problem.
Does a recall or service campaign prove that my CX-90 is a lemon?
No. Recall, campaign, complaint, or bulletin information may provide context, but it does not prove the condition exists in this vehicle or establish a lemon law claim. Use VIN-specific information and the actual repair record.
What Mazda CX-90 records should I save?
Keep the purchase or lease agreement, warranty booklet, every final repair order, current registration and payoff information, photographs or videos, towing and rental records, and dealer or manufacturer messages and case numbers.
Can a used or leased CX-90 qualify?
Possibly. The answer depends on the transaction, vehicle history, warranty that applied, timing of the repair visits, and other facts. A used or leased vehicle should be evaluated from its own documents.
What remedies may be available for a qualifying Mazda CX-90?
Depending on the facts and current law, possible outcomes can include restitution or repurchase, replacement, a negotiated cash resolution, warranty relief, incidental damages, or other remedies. No particular outcome is guaranteed.
