general problems of the 2001 Mazda Tribute

Put the car in reverse and could not get it out of reverse. Steering totally locked up. I looked on google and this seems to be happening quite a bit and a few years have already been recalled. I was in a cvs parking lot when this happened. Blocked traffic and people were not happy.

Tl-the contact owns a 2001 Mazda Tribute. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked she attempted to put the gear shift in the drive position the vehicle failed to move. The contact also stated that the rpm on the instrument panel became inoperable while gear shift was in the reverse position. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repair. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown. Ec.

My car had been starting off very slow from a complete stop. One day prior it would go into rev. The next day I am sitting at a stop sign and without touching anything the SUV swifted into rev on its own and I could not pull off from the stop sign. It would revearse . So I had to drive it in rev down a long curvy road backwards hoping someone would not hit me or me hit anyone. Now it is parked cause I cant drive it. I have only had the car for three months.

Keys come out of the ignition when my Mazda Tribute is not in park. I forgot today that the front rotors are real bad and need replaced and I only have 41140 miles on my 2001 Tribute which I bought brand new from the Mazda dealer in town. I have to replace the front door handle twice now since it would not open from the inside.

When driving speedometer was out of control, and can't tell speed traveling. Took vehicle to dealer, and dealer indicated it was an electrical problem, and had repaired it. But problem still existed.
