Some Mazda 5 owners report experiencing issues with their air conditioning systems after long-term storage with exposure to the elements, including refrigerant leaks that prevent proper functionality. Others have noted problems with the compressor, which may fail to engage due to storage conditions. Additionally, some owners encounter electrical issues affecting climate control, leading to further malfunctions. A clogged air filter can also hinder airflow, impacting the system's performance. Moreover, mechanical damage to the compressor clutch or the compressor itself has been reported, resulting in the air conditioning system not working correctly. To resolve these issues, it is recommended that owners inspect for refrigerant leaks, check compressor functionality, ensure electrical components are working properly, clean or replace the air filter, and consult a qualified mechanic for a thorough inspection.
