Surprise mortgage on property

UPDATE: turns out what happened was - the owned parking spot has a separate title from the condo itself. When the mortgage was discharged, they only discharged the condo title not the parking spot title. Seems like that’s an error on the bank’s part? Lawyer is still working to resolve.

Someone please talk me off the ledge…
I recently sold my condo, my closing date is July 9. I had bought the condo 19 years ago. At the time, the sellers (a nice elderly couple, for what it’s worth) signed a “Warranties and Bill of Sale” that included a declaration that there are no liens or claims on the property. My lawyer at the time didn’t flag anything. I got title insurance. I got my own mortgage and, years later when I paid it off I took out a HELOC - no problem.
Today I was informed by my current lawyer that there is a mortgage registered on the condo, by the previous owners, dated three months before I took possession.
What is going on? Can this be just some clerical error? Is this going to delay my closing? Or worse, tank the deal? I’m pretty sure that both of the previous owners have passed away by now so who do I even deal with to sort this out?

CX-5 transmission issue?

I own a 2014 CX-5 that I bought new, it has 115,000km on it (about 75,000 miles) and has always been well maintained and serviced.

For the past few months it’s been doing this thing, where on the first start of the day, when shifting into drive, it seems to get stuck in neutral for a few seconds and then jerks into drive, sometimes only after I hit the gas pedal.
This only happens with the first start, and only when shifting into drive - no issues putting it in reverse if I’m backing out of my parking spot, but then happens when shifting from reverse to drive.
Other than that it’s driving just fine, shifting appropriately, no weird noises.

I had it looked at at the dealership, they ran a diagnostic (no codes came up), updated the TCM and replaced the transmission fluid. Didn’t solve the problem at all. Now they want me to shell out for them to “consult with Mazda” and do further diagnostics.
Would appreciate any thoughts.
