Component: VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:CABLES

Potential Number of Units Affected: 217,500

Summary: Mazda is recalling certain model year 2001 through 2006, and 2008, Tribute vehicles equipped with 3.0L V6 engines and speed control. Inadequate clearance between the engine cover and the speed control cable connector could result in a stuck throttle when the accelerator pedal is fully or almost-fully depressed. This risk exists regardless of whether or not speed control (cruise control) is used.

Consequence: A stuck throttle may result in very high vehicle speeds and make it difficult to stop or slow the vehicle, which could cause a crash, serious injury or death. Got a lemon Mazda Tribute? Want a new Mazda Tribute or your money back? Get www.USLemonLawyers.com Get Justice
