Given the extremely intermittent nature of this issue (and the fact that it took 6,884 miles for it to completely drain my battery), I may never see it again during my ownership (I tend to trade vehicles every year, but I really like the CX-5, so this may be one of the very rare exceptions). Or, it may happen tonight! Either way, it's highly unlikely that it'll happen again before I get a new PLG unit Friday.
UPDATE: I really hate to be "that guy" and I understand if a dealer doesn't have any loaners then they don't have any loaners. But, I noticed the notification from Mazda said, "Mazda will provide alternate transportation, if needed, when your vehicle is at an authorized Mazda dealer for a SSP repair." So, I called the number on the notification and explained that the dealer doesn't have any loaners. The rep immediately called the Mazda dealer and told them to put me in a car from a local rental agency. We'll see what, if anything, I end up with in the next couple of hours.
UPDATE 2: Despite Mazda's specific direction to the dealer to get me a rental from a local agency and get reimbursed by Mazda if they didn't have any loaners available, the dealer refused (nothing but laziness on their part). The dealer is "fairly sure" they have a loaner coming back in at 5:45 PM (they close at 6:00 PM and it's 4:00 PM right now). A co-worker will drop me off at 5:30 PM and I'll wait. If I don't update this thread in a few hours, then I'm either sleeping in their showroom or in jail.
UPDATE 3: I'm in a new Jetta SLE for the week. I'll be glad to get my CX-5 back! The Jetta is slow, but has a neat multi-color ambient lighting system.
