Dealer was not able to fix it alao in your case?
CX-60 Problems
Well the all new CX-60 has been released in EU and UK and soon Australia etc.
As there is no sub forum or specific dedicated CX-60 Forum URL (IMO there should be as the CX-70 is not the same car) there have been a number of production issues on release with this model.
1) There was a stop sale related to the non production install @ Mazda Japan factory of a 20 AMP Safety Fuse in rear of trunk in related to cars main Battery in CX-60 PHEV, hopefully ALL should have been rectified before being sold to customers with the installation of a 20 AMP Fuse module.

2) All Shock Absorbers front and rear and the Front and Rear Sway Bars were installed @ Mazda Factory with not ideal specifications resulting of a bumpy wallowing ride comfort on undulating roads, and on paved roads a hard feel inside cabin resulting in unstable ride, The fix is to renew all shocks and sway bars front and rear.
3) Cars Infotainment System (Mazda Connect) on initial production shipment (about 300 cars) had out of specification Firmware Version 12006 was installed and requires updating to correct CMU_7000C0A-EU07_14004.kwi firmware.
Again this should have been updated by the selling Mazda Dealer, however I have already been contacted by an owner in Europe where his Mazda Connect was not updated. I subsequently on his request supplied him with correct file 14004 with full update instructions (very easy), you WILL need a USB C Flash Drive preferably as small as you can get below 32GB. (do not use USB A to C Adapter).
To find out what version of Firmware for your Mazda Connect is in your CX-60 do the following..
1. Turn the ignition to ACC or to ON.
2. Select ”Settings” on the Home screen.
3. Select “System Setting”.
4. Select “System Information”.
5. Select “Version Information”.
6. See 'System Software'
Version Number like 12004 is revealed, it should be 14004 or higher, if it is lower than 14004 then you can update it.

Yeah. Probably it was lucky Saturday.
I have installed tester on the battery. Showed 12.6V with car off on bluetooth app.
Of course every time with warning - battery low.
Battery is on the right side of car but a little bit hidden. It is easy to get ,,+'' but you have to remove battery to get ,,-''. Other idea is to disconnect negative (-) wire connected to the right side of car. Thick black one going from battery to painted side.
We decided to follow Bart110
informations and we disconnected minus wire - so car was without power. As my father is mechanic for 30 years, he has at garage profesional charger and a lot of experience. As we realized that battery is S95 Yuasa, charger was connected and set, car was disconnected for c.a two hours. Do not close a key!!
And warning is removed!!! I have traveled with about 15 full stops and warning never appears!!!
What is interesting. Now bluetooth meter is showing 12.4V on battery, with no warning, after all day of short trips voltage is lower than before with no warnings.
So, we can assume that car is so smart that remember battery performance, long time off due to transportation and all etc. lowered battery some level and car was looked for that old one. Normally every day car has ability to observe battery performance day by day.

I have realized it before today battery warning repair, I had three options for Reaction on speed limit sign - Off / Manual and Auto. Auto disappeared !

Yes the 12V reset function.Yeah. Probably it was lucky Saturday.

The black cable you speak of is the Earth bond.
It did reset it for me also but then when the battery dropped in charge, it appeared again. I will try again today as its been a month since I last did it! Thanks for the heads up.
I'm wondering if we need to push for new batteries from a different brand - however I do know other 12V Warning Diesel owners have had new batteries and it didn't cure the problem, so this definitely is one solution and may work for some, but it may not work for all.
Will report back.
Yes. It is something like simulating of battery change. Removing power is changing, charging battery is changing a voltage so battery for a car is treated like new.
Now, after night is still with no warning.
Believe your version or mine?
I believe mine. As you do yours. Why would I believe yours? Thankfully, the industry in the UK on a whole has similar views to mine regarding the ride so its not an isolated opinion, and its one that affects the vehicle heavily in the UK through industry and market perception.I personally have no issue with the handling of the car, it handles very well as far as I am concerned, even better than my previous Audi S3, but this is maybe as I've never experienced the bouncing, but others have, yet they must believe you no? despite their own experience?
With your history of being a bit of a Mazda fan, with previous Mazda under your belt, its entirely plausible that the whole 'fan-boi' bias takes over. Cognitive bias is a strong power. Its like a typical Max Verstappen fan - the fans will say he does no wrong, yet evidence proves otherwise but they have that glazed look when presented with stuff like his racism sympathising and ableist commentary.
Also, moving from a Subaru Impreza (of which I have owned three, and do still one) it's not surprising you feel the ride quality of the SUV is good. because you are comparing it to a different class of car entirely. Its good against my 1998 Type R on coilovers and 18's with 35 profile tyres. However, as an SUV, and the class of the SUV and price, the ride is not accomplished and easily outclassed, as a sports saloon car on rubber band tyres, maybe it would be good.
I have no no interest in losing money by buying another car when this one has the potential to be made better, for far less cost. Hence the discussions will continue long after you've disappeared for a few months again.
Your contribution of 11 posts to the forum has been, well, insightful, but I enjoy them! Keep em coming more often please, I miss you.
Is PHEV battery temperature on 3/4 normal?

So, I have spoken with service desk person.
This action has been recommended by Mazda UK. They have reported back, that this fix has been effective. They have also done it to the demo CX-60 demo they have on site and as the car does not drive as often, this also has been successful. So, two cars done using the same procedure and both without 12V warning (at this stage).
She said it was recommended to take it out completely, charge, put it back in, drive, disconnect for an hour and re-connect for the car "to register" new state of the battery.
She has confirmed that when my car has been in the garage they have monitored the charge status when the engine was running. It has been recorded to be 14.0 - 14.2 over 35 minutes when engine was running.
@dromik - based on your post:
this also has been successful for you, so it could be somethingWe decided to follow Bart110

Sorry @Southeastern , I don't think I will be able to get anything more without speaking with the actual technician (they are very protective for customers to speak with them) that was working on my car.
Currently, after two days, 5 short drives less than 10 min each and 2 longer one (over hour each) the warning has not returned
I have next confirmation on another car that removing 12V warning procedure is working.this also has been successful for you, so it could be something
