Consumer Description

MAZDA TRIBUTE DIED ON A BUSY ROAD DURING A RAINSTORM, WOULD NOT CRANK, WINDOWS AND GAUGES ON DASH INTERMITTENTLY WORKED AS WE WAITED FOR A TOW -- TOWED TO A SHOP,ENGINE STILL WON'T CRANK. THE LOCAL REPAIR SHOP TECH BELIEVES IT IS TSB: 01-047/06. LOOKING LIKE A $1,200 BILL COMING (PCM, LABOR TO TROUBLESHOOT AND REPAIR...AND A NEW BATTERY)..WENT TO MAZDA AND THEY SAY THE TSB HELPS A TECH TROUBLESHOOT A PROBLEM.. MY QUESTION IS THAT IF MAZDA HAS HAD ENOUGH OF THESE ISSUES TO WRITE UP A TSB THEN IT MUST BE A WIDESPREAD ISSUE CAUSED BY A MAZDA DESIGN DEFECT, SO WHY IS MAZDA NOT BACKING IT UP AND FIXING FOR FREE AS A RECALL OR REIMBURSING IF THE FIX IS PERFORMED BY AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP? (THE PART ALONE IS ~$700)? NEED VEHICLE SO HAVING IT FIXED AND WILL ASK FOR THE REPLACED PART (POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE - PCM). *TR
