Consumer Description

MY 2005 MAZDA TRIBUTE I-4, WITH 19,000 MILES ON IT, EXPERIENCED AN ALTERNATOR FAILURE. THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON AND I WAS ADVISED BY THE DEALER TO BRING THE CAR IN BECAUSE IT MIGHT DIE. MY VEHICLE IS NOW BEING HELD FOR ABOUT A WEEK, BECAUSE THEY HAVE TOLD ME THAT ALTERNATORS FOR THIS VEHICLE ARE BACK-ORDERED. I WONDER IF THEY ARE BACK ORDERED BECAUSE OTHER FAILURES HAVE OCCURRED AT VERY LOW MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLES. *JB
