Consumer Description

DRIVER SIDE POWER DOOR LOCK ASSEMBLY BROKEN AND THE DOOR CAN NO LONGER BE OPENED FROM THE INSIDE. (WITH THE IGNITION ON, THE WINDOW CAN BE ROLLED DOWN, AND THE DRIVER CAN OPEN THE DOOR USING THE OUTSIDE DOOR HANDLE) THIS IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD, AS THE DRIVER CANNOT EXIT THE CAR QUICKLY IN CASE OF AND EMERGENCY. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED, AND THE COMPLETE POWER DOOR LOCK ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE PURCHASED TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AMONG MAZDA TRIBUTE OWNERS. *TR
