2001 MAZDA TRIBUTE Engine And Engine Coolingenginegasoline Problems

MAZDA TRIBUTE 2001 SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE AND WHEN IT DOES, STEERING AND BRAKING BECOME DIFFICULT. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR, BUT THEY DON'T KNOW THE CAUSE. *JB

THIS IS ABOUT OUR 2001 MAZDA TRIBUTE LX , 4X4, V6. OUR VIN. # [XXX], BUT YOUR SYSTEM IS NOT ACCEPTING THIS NUMBER. OUR TRIBUTE HAS STALLED MORE THAN 5 TIMES OVER THE LAST 2 YEARS. WE HAVE CALLED THE MAZDA DEALER TO ASK IF THEY HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH OTHER TRIBUTES. THEY CLAIMED THEY WERE NOT AWARE OF THAT TYPE OF PROBLEM THREE OCCASIONS BETWEEN APRIL 2001 AND NOVEMBER 2001. SOMETHING WE WERE DOING WRONG. AUGUST 2002, AFTER ANOTHER STALLING EPISODE WE DECIDED IT WAS TOO DANGEROUS AND TOOK THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY THEN INFORMED US THAT THEY HAD A LOT OF OTHER 2001 AND 2002 TRIBUTES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY HAD OUR TRIBUTE AT THE DEALERSHIP REPAIR SHOP FOR 63 STRAIGHT DAYS BEFORE THE MAZDA H.Q. CALLED US FROM IRVINE, CA TO TELL US THAT OUR TRIBUTE HAD BEEN REPAIRED AND THEY WERE SURE...

WAS TRAVELING DOWN A STEEP, CURVEY HILL AT APPROXIMATELY 35-45 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE STALLED. I LOST CONTROL OF THE STEERING AS WELL AS THE BRAKES. THE ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON. I WAS MEETING A VEHICLE AT THE TIME AND LUCKILY MISSED RUNNING INTO THE ONCOMING VEHICLE DUE TO INCIDENT OCCURING IN A CURVE. THIS IS THE SECOND INCIDENT THAT THIS HAS OCCURRED. IT HAS BEEN REPORTED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF THIS OCCURING BEFORE NOW. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY CONCERN FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. GG--KY DT

THE ENGINE CUT OUT FOR NO REASON WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER BRAKES, STEERING ETC. LUCKILY, NO OTHER TRAFFIC WAS ON THE ROAD OR THERE MAY HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED ON THIS VEHICLE. ONE YEAR AGO, THE ENGINE STALLED WHILE DRIVING WHILE DRIVING DOWN A HILL, AND A MULTI-CAR ACCIDENT WAS NARROWLY AVOIDED AT THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL. THE DEALER CLAIMS THAT MAZDA TOLD THEM TO REPLACE THE "PCU" AT THE TIME, AND THEN CALLED ME BACK LATER TO CONFIRM THIS WAS INDEED THE FIX TO THIS REPORTED NATIONWIDE PROBLEM. OBVIOUSLY, SINCE THE PROBLEM HAS NOW RE-OCCURRED ONE YEAR LATER, MAZDA'S INITIAL FIX WAS WRONG AND MAZDA STILL DOES NOT KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING THIS PROBLEM. YOUR WEBSITE REPORTS NUMEROUS SIMILAR CONSUMER COMPLAINTS, WHICH IS DISTURBING. WHAT IS THE GOVERNMENT DOING TO PROTECT CONSUMERS? THERE SHOULD BE A...

MY MAZDA TRIBUTE STALLS AT HIGH SPEEDS. MOST RECENTLY, GOING DOWNHILL AT 45 MPH. ENGINE DIED, BATTERY LIGHTS AND OIL LIGHTS TURNED ON... NO WARNING AT ALL. I LOST POWER TO THE STEERING WHEEL AND BRAKES. VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT HAPPENED SO SUDDENLY, AND THERE WAS NO SAFE PLACE TO GET OFF THE ROAD.

ENGINE PERIODICALLY SHUTS DOWN AT LOW RPMS. POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES FAIL WHEN ENGINE SHUTS DOWN AND, AS A RESULT, THE TRIBUTE IS DIFFICULT TO STEER AND STOP. SHUTDOWNS HAVE HAPPENED AT LEAST ELEVEN TIMES - ALWAYS AT LOW RPMS (1000 RPM OR LESS). EACH SHUT DOWN OCCURRED WHEN I WAS COASTING DOWNHILL. GENERALLY, I WAS ALSO BRAKING AT THE SAME TIME. THE DEALERSHIP'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS BEEN EXTREMELY DILIGENT IN THEIR EFFORTS BUT SO FAR MAZDA HAS BEEN UNABLE TO PROVIDE THE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE NEEDED TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. I BOUGHT THE TRIBUTE IN JAN 2001 AND EXPERICED THE FIRST FAILURES BEFORE THE FIRST 3000 MILE SERVICING. THE FIRST DEALER RESOLUTION ATTEMPT WAS NOT DOCUMENTED. THE TECHNICIAN QUERIED THE ONBOARD COMPUTER BUT THERE WAS NO CODE INDICATING ANY FAILURE. ON 4/28/02, AFTER MORE FAILURES, THE PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED AS A WIRING PROBLEM AND "FIXED". THREE MORE FALILURES OCCURRED...

ENGINES SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAPPENS ANYTIME OR ANYWHERE. LEAVING YOU WITHOUT BRAKES OR STEERING. MAZDA HAS REPLACED NUMERUS PARTS BUT CAN NEVER FIX THIS PROBLEM.

SHE HAD TO PULL ACROSS ON COMING TRAFFIC AND IN TO A PARKING LOT TO AVOID REAR ENDING ANOTHER CAR ONLY TO BE ALMOST HIT CROSSING THE ON COMING TRAFFIC.
