The leading cause of front suspension noise in your Mazda CX5, specifically in model years 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016, can be attributed to a known issue addressed in Mazda's technical service bulletin (TSB) 0200616. This issue is related to defective lower control arm bushings in the front suspension, which tends to occur mainly on wet roads when driving between speeds of 12 and 25 miles per hour. If your vehicle is within warranty, Mazda will replace the faulty lower control arm bushings at no cost. However, if your vehicle is no longer covered by warranty, you will be responsible for the expenses. Fortunately, replacing lower control arm bushings is not overly complicated or expensive. Nevertheless, many drivers argue that Mazda should cover the costs given the existence of the TSB.
