I PURCHASED A 2010 MAZDA I GRAND TOURING 10/21/09. ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL WAS DEFECTIVE BY 10/24/09. THE DEALER COULD NOT GET THE PART . I WAS TOLD THAT THE CAR WAS TOO NEW. A NEW MAZDA WAS BROUGHT IN AND THE PART WAS TAKEN FROM IT AFTER 29 DAYS AT THE DEALER. I HAVE A SQUEAL NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR UPON ACCELERATION FROM A FULL STOP. MAZDA SAYS IT IS THE TRANSFER CASE THAT RUBS AND MAKES THE NOISE. NOTHING TO WORRY NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. CAR HAS 1500 MILES ON IT. CAR HAS NEVER BEEN THE SAME SINCE THE ECS WAS REPLACED 1/9/10. NOT SURE WHAT MAZDA IS GOING TO DO. THEY DID NOT ADVISE ME THAT THEY WOULD BE REPLACING TRANSMISSION. I WAS TOLD I COULD DRIVE IT LIKE IT IS AND LIVE WITH THE NOISE, AS IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. I WOULD RECEIVE A SMALL AMOUNT TO KEEP THE CAR MAZDA MAY CONSIDER A TRADE ME OUT I WAS TOLD IF I DO NOT WANT THE MONEY. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY 2010 TRIBUTE. WAITING TO HEAR FROM MAZDA. *TR
Mazda North American Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain model year 2010-2011 Tribute vehicles manufactured March 3, 2009, to May 26, 2011. On vehicles with a 3.0L engine, the Fuel Delivery Module (FDM) may crack, causing a fuel leak.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
Remedy: Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the FDM flange with one that has a redesigned fuel supply port, free of charge. Remedy parts are currently unavailable. Interim notices informing owners of the safety recall were mailed on December 23, 2016. Owners will receive a second notice when remedy parts are in stock. Owners may contact Mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500. Mazda's number for this recall is 0416J.
Mazda North American Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain model year 2008-2011 Tribute vehicles manufactured October 5, 2006, through September 11, 2010. The affected vehicles have a steering torque sensor that may not be able to properly detect driver steering input. As a result, the system could remove the Electric Power Steering (EPS) assist.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If power steering assist is lost, greater driver effort would be required to steer the vehicle at low speeds, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Mazda will notify owners and dealers will update the software for the power steering control module (PSCM) and the instrument cluster module, free of charge. If a vehicle shows a history of a loss of the torque sensor signal or fault codes relating to the PSCM when the vehicle is brought in for the recall remedy, the affected components will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began in July 2014. Owners may contact Mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500. Mazda's number for this recall is 7614E.
