KEYS COME OUT OF THE IGNITION WHEN MY MAZDA TRIBUTE IS NOT IN PARK. I FORGOT TODAY THAT THE FRONT ROTORS ARE REAL BAD AND NEED REPLACED AND I ONLY HAVE 41140 MILES ON MY 2001 TRIBUTE WHICH I BOUGHT BRAND NEW FROM THE MAZDA DEALER IN TOWN. I HAVE TO REPLACE THE FRONT DOOR HANDLE TWICE NOW SINCE IT WOULD NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE

I OWN A 2001 MAZDA TRIBUTE, WHICH I PURCHASED USED IN 2007. THE VEHICLE WENT THROUGH SIX MASTER CYLINDERS WITHIN THE FIRST FEW MONTHS WE OWNED IT. IT HAS BEEN AN OK CAR, BUT FREQUENTLY AND I MEAN FREQUENTLY VISITS THE MECHANIC TO GET FIXED, WHEREAS MY OTHER (FOREIGN-MADE) VEHICLE RARELY HAS PROBLEMS - I WILL NEVER BUY AMERICAN AGAIN! WEDNESDAY EVENING I PICKED UP MY 2001 TRIBUTE UP AT THE MECHANIC FROM GETTING FOUR NEW ENGINE COILS WHICH HAD JUST BEEN REPLACED TWO YEARS PREVIOUSLY, WHICH MY MECHANIC SAYS SHOULD NOT HAVE GONE BAD. THURSDAY MORNING I HAD MY TWO CHILDREN IN THE CAR WHEN I REVERSED OUT OF MY PARKING SPOT AT A LOCAL CHURCH WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR! THE CAR KEPT GOING BACK AND I HAD TO USE THE EMERGENCY BREAK TO STOP!!!! LUCKILY I DID NOT HIT ANYTHING AND NO ONE WAS HURT. I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED BACK TO THE MECHANIC, WHICH I HAD JUST PICKED IT UP FROM (THIS WAS THE CAR'S 4TH VISIT IN TWO WEEKS FOR BROKEN PARTS). THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THE FRONT LEFT BRAKE LINE HAD RUPTURED AND THE RIGHT ONE WAS CRACKED, SO BOTH WERE REPLACED. I AM SO THANKFUL THE BRAKES HADN'T FAILED MINUTES LATER WHEN MY FAMILY WOULD HAVE BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE!!! NO RECALL HAS BEEN MADE BY MAZDA FOR THIS PROBLEM, BUT I HAVE SEEN MANY SIMILAR STORIES FROM THIS VEHICLE. IT IS A DISGRACE AND THREAT TO NOT ONLY THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS OF THESE VEHICLES, BUT TO EVERYONE ON THE ROAD!!! I'M SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR, NOT KNOWING IF IT WILL GET ME HOME SAFELY OR EVEN GO. I WOULD NEVER HAVE PURCHASED THE CAR IF I COULD GO BACK AND ONLY WISH I COULD PURCHASE SOMETHING DIFFERENT NOW.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM

MY 2001 MAZDA TRIBUTE WILL STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. I LOSE THE ABILITY TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. IN DECEMBER 2007, MY IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE FAILED. I HAD IT REPLACED BY A MAZDA DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT. IN SEPTEMBER 2008, THE IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE FAILED AGAIN, ALONG WITH THE UPPER INTAKE GASKET. I HAD THIS REPLACED AGAIN BY A MAZDA TECHNICIAN. ON OCTOBER 10, 2008, MY VEHICLE STALLED AGAIN DUE TO THE IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE. I LOST CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE AND ENDED UP IN A DITCH. I HAD THE VEHICLE REPAIRED AGAIN BY A MAZDA TECHNICIAN, REPLACING THE IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE AND THE LOWER INTAKE GASKET. ON OCTOBER 16, MY VEHICLE STALLED AGAIN IN TRAFFIC, I WAS VERY NEARLY REAR-ENDED. MAZDA TECHNICIANS KEEP INSTRUCTING ME TO REPLACE VARIOUS PARTS OF MY CAR. HOWEVER, THE FACT REMAINS THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO REPAIR THIS VEHICLE SUFFICIENTLY TO PREVENT ITS FAILING AGAIN, LEAVING ME EXTREMELY VULNERABLE TO A POTENTIALLY CATASTROPHIC VEHICULAR ACCIDENT. MY VEHICLE IS TOO DANGEROUS TO CONTINUE OPERATING BECAUSE OF THE SHODDY AND INEPT CRAFTSMANSHIP RENDERED BY MAZDA. I AM NOT ALONE IN MY COMPLAINTS. THE INTERNET IS FILLED WITH COMPLAINTS RELATING TO STALLING PROBLEMS OF MAZDA SEDANS AND SUVS. SWIFT AND DECISIVE ACTION SHOULD BE MADE AGAINST MAZDA USA BY THE NHTSA TO PREVENT THE CONTINUED PRESENCE OF DANGEROUS MAZDA VEHICLES ON THE ROAD.

THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR HANDLE FAILED, I WAS TRAPPED INSIDE THE CAR ON THE DRIVER SIDE. I HAD TO LOWER THE POWER WINDOW, REACH OUTSIDE OF THE CAR AND OPEN THE DOOR. I PURCHASED A HANDLE AND PAID TO HAVE THE DOOR HANDLE REPLACED ON 6/29/2005. THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR HANDLE FAILED , LEAVING THE PASSENGER TRAPPED INSIDE THE CAR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. PASSENGERS HAD TO LOWER THE POWER WINDOW, REACH OUTSIDE THE CAR AND OPEN THE DOOR. I PURCHASED A HANDLE AND PAID TO HAVE THE DOOR HANDLE REPLACED ON 3/13/2006. RECENTLY, EVERY TIME I CRANK MY CAR A LARGE CLOUD OF GRAY SMOKE COMES FROM THE TAILPIPE. TODAY, 6/16/2006, I WENT TO PUT THE KEY INTO THE IGNITION AND THE KEY WOULD NOT GO IN. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS THE KEY WENT INTO THE IGNITION BUT, THE KEY WOULD NOT TURN. I WAS UNABLE TO START THE CAR. WITH ASSISTANCE FROM A LOCAL MECHANIC, AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS, THE KEY WENT IN, TURNED AND THE CAR STARTED. IT WAS SUGGESTED TO ME, DO NOT MAKE ANY STOPS ON THE WAY HOME THAT WOULD REQUIRE TURNING THE CAR OFF. ONCE I ARRIVED AT HOME I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND ATTEMPTED TO START THE CAR AGAIN. THE KEY WILL GO IN BUT, AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, THE KEY WILL NOT TURN TO START THE CAR. WITH THE MAZDA BEING MY ONLY VEHICLE I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MY SON AND I. WHILE DRIVING THE MAZDA THE REAR GLASS ON THE HATCH OPENED. I PULLED OVER TO CLOSE THE GLASS AND IT WOULD NOT CLOSE AND LATCH. WITH THE HELP OF A LOCAL MECHANIC HE WAS ABLE TO CLOSE AND ENGAGE THE LATCH ON THE GLASS DOOR. WE AVOID OPENING THE REAR GLASS BUT ON ACCIDENT THE GLASS DOOR WAS OPENED AND IT WAS THE SAME SCENARIO.
