## Mazda CX-6e Safety Feature
Mazda's CX-6e uses a front-mounted speaker to warn pedestrians and cyclists when its electric motor is too quiet to notice.
## Custom Messages Feature
The CX-6e lets drivers type custom messages and save them as shortcuts for later playback through the front speaker.
## Profanity Detection
Reviewers found the CX-6e would read back nearly anything typed, including profanity, with no meaningful filter to block foul language.
## Legal Consequences
Western Australia fines drivers up to $6,000 AUD for offensive language used through the CX-6e's external speaker.
## No Software Fix
Mazda has not issued a public statement addressing profanity workarounds or promised a software filter for the external speaker.
## Key takeaway

Mazda's CX-6e uses a front speaker to warn pedestrians and cyclists but can also broadcast custom messages, including profanity, with no filter.
