Car: CX-5 2016 Touring
What fun: Was just about to turn the new used car over to my son, took one more spin.
- Backed out if the driveway - absolutely disengaged the parking e-break
- Drove about 3 miles - at some point (maybe right away, but I'm not certain) heard a rotational thumping noise - with car speed, so it was a rotation noise.
- Almost at destination, tire sensor lights up and a smell starts
- 30 seconds later we parked (I didnt engage the parking brake, it was flat) and the rear-left wheel smells horrible - burned brake dust smell
- so I'm all pissed - the dealership did rear brakes for me like a week ago when we bought it
- So we are busy and get a ride home, and I come back total 90 min later - did a small test drive, no ADDITIONAL smell, no sounds, light still on
- I drive to Autozone like 2000 yards away - they can't code the tire sensor through ODB
- I drive home (maybe 1.5 miles) and no more drama - I don't engage the parking break, again on flat
So what happened? I know that I disengaged the parking break.
Can the tire sensors come on for *ANY* other reason than pressure? If yes what? If no, did the sensor maybe get eaten by a break pad?
I am going to get it back to the dealer tomm and see what is what.
Any tips? Suggestions? Trouble shooting things to do? Most important question I asked above I guess is what sets off that sensors OTHER than pressure.
Thank you! This car is stressing me out a bit, appreciate the help.
