Consumer Description

WITHOUT WARNING MY BRAND NEW MAZDA TRIBUTE STALLED ON 5 SEPARATE OCCASIONS. THE POWER BRAKES AND STEERING BOTH GO OUT CAUSING IT TO BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO STOP AND PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I HAVE BROUGHT MY VEHICLE INTO THE SERVICE CENTER TWO TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY TELL ME THAT THEY'RE PRETTY SURE THEY HAVE IT TAKEN CARE OF THIS TIME. THE SERVICE MANAGER ALSO TOLD ME THAT "MAZDA IS WELL AWARE OF THE PROBLEM." MAZDA IS WELL AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, HOWEVER, THEY ARE UNWILLING TO RECALL THIS VEHICLE UNTIL THEY FIND A DEFINATE FIX. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT I BELIEVE MAZDA SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBLITY FOR BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED FROM THEIR CARELESS WAYS. MR
