MY 2001 MAZDA TRIBUTE WILL STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. I LOSE THE ABILITY TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. IN DECEMBER 2007, MY IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE FAILED. I HAD IT REPLACED BY A MAZDA DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT. IN SEPTEMBER 2008, THE IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE FAILED AGAIN, ALONG WITH THE UPPER INTAKE GASKET. I HAD THIS REPLACED AGAIN BY A MAZDA TECHNICIAN. ON OCTOBER 10, 2008, MY VEHICLE STALLED AGAIN DUE TO THE IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE. I LOST CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE AND ENDED UP IN A DITCH. I HAD THE VEHICLE REPAIRED AGAIN BY A MAZDA TECHNICIAN, REPLACING THE IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE AND THE LOWER INTAKE GASKET. ON OCTOBER 16, MY VEHICLE STALLED AGAIN IN TRAFFIC, I WAS VERY NEARLY REAR-ENDED. MAZDA TECHNICIANS KEEP INSTRUCTING ME TO REPLACE VARIOUS PARTS OF MY CAR. HOWEVER, THE FACT REMAINS THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO REPAIR...

WHEN THE CAR ENGINE IS DRIVEN FOR MORE THAN 10 MIN AND THEN SHUT OFF, WHEN YOU RESTART THE ENGINE YOU GET A STRONG FUEL VAPOR FROM THE VENTS IN THE CAR. ALSO WHEN THE CAR IS COLLING DOWN LIKE IN THE GARAGE YOU GET A STRONG FUEL VAPOR FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE ENGINE. I BROUGHT THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE AND THEY SAID THERE IS NO FUEL LEAKS AND THAT IT MUST BE A NEW ENGINE BURN OFF SMELL. I HAVE SPOKE TO AT LEAST 12 PEOPLE ON EDMUNDS .COM WHO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH NO SOLUTION. I HOPE YOU CAN HELP BECAUSE I FEEL THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS. *AK
