Consumer Description

MY 2001 TRIBUTE HAD A PROBLEM SHIFTING IN/OUT OF OVERDRIVE - A SHUDDERING AS IF IT COULDN'T MAKE UP IT'S MIND. 2 CALLS TO MAZDA AND 2 CALLS TO DEALER GAVE SAME RESULTS - "WHAT PROBLEM" BUT WEB SITES SAY IT IS COMMON. DEALER CLAIMS FAILURE TO CHANGE XMSN FLUID AT 22500 MAY HAVE CAUSED IT; PROBLEM HAPPENED WAY BEFORE THAT (SUMMER 2002) AND NOW (FEB 04) CONDITIONS WORSE - WON'T SHIFT. WON'T ACCELERATE. DEALER CHANGED FLUID, REPROGRAMMED PCM; SAID IT WAS FIXED, BUT IT IS STILL THE SAME. I THINK THEY ARE WAITING FOR WARRANTY TO EXPIRE. CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE, BUT I HAVE TO TAKE IT BACK. THIS TREND SEEMS LIKE A "LEMON-LAW" CASE AND A LOT OF US NEED HELP, LIKE A MAZDA RECALL.*AK
