Coolant was leaking into my engine where the oil goes and I was unaware. The vehicle stalled in me while driving because of this. Even after figuring out what the issue was and trying to have it fix it became inoperable.

THERE IS A SYSTEMIC EVAP SYSTEM ISSUE WHERE THERE IS A LEAK THAT EITHER SHOWS THAT THE GAS CAP IS OFF OR THE CHECK ENGINE CODE FOR LARGE EVAP LEAK. MESSAGE BOARD TRAFFIC SHOWS THIS AS A PROBLEM ACROSS MULTIPLE YEAR MODELS AND MAKES IN THE MAZDA CX LINE, ESPECIALLY THE CX-9. EVERYONE, INCLUDING MYSELF, REPORTS THE SAME ISSUE: LIGHT COMES ON, AND THEN REPLACE GAS CAP. LIGHT COMES BACK ON AND THEN IT IS MULTIPLE TRIPS TO THE DEALER FOR THEM TO FIND WHERE THE EVAP LEAK IS.
