    We have this vehicle in our "fleet". The reason for buying it? The performance. Yes the car is bad on economy but it is a v6 with 200BHP!!
    Reliability - very good. I knew this was a Ford based unit (check the dipstick) and guessed that parts would be relatively easy to source.
    Due to the excellent road handling and dizzy performance expect to need new tyres regularly. Brakes have been very good and reliable. Full leather inside looks the business but can be cold on the lower back some mornings.
    Bad points - one repair so far is an oil leak on a driveshaft gearbox seal. That is it.
    If you want a reliable SUV with awesome power delivery get it. If you hate paying for fuel don't!

    I've purchased one of the first Mazda Tribute's built. It's been great. Sure it's had a few repairs along the way, but nothing major yet. It has 180,000 miles on it. I've done two tune-ups, two brake jobs, alternator, struts and shocks. It's been a great SUV. I am hoping it last another 50k miles.

    The Mazda Tribute is a good, comfortable car that is ok for occasional off road use. Though I've not tried them I'd bet with good off road tyres it would be better. My own car is a 3L v6 which has plenty of clout, but gives about 15 mpg around town. Since I bought it, its been converted to run on lpg and returns(with my fiancee's lighter foot)the equivalent of 38mpg, but does suffer slightly on clout. I've not towed with it, so can't comment on that but it has a good weight to it. I would say to ...

    I bought the Mazda Tribute V6 2001 model. Within six months ther were three recalls. After 3 years (75,000k) the brake booster started to leak. At 95,000k front brake rotors has to be replaced. AT 90,000k transmission crashed. I learned from transmission specialist that this lemon uses Ford Mondeo transmission (car transmission on an SUV??). By the way, battery died after 75,000k.
    Before the engine give up I decided to trade it with a new Camry. Advise to Mazda Tribute V6 owners, Get rid of thi ...

    VEHICLE: 2002 Mazda Tribute V6 Automatic - 54,000 miles. Purchased one year ago - travelled 8,000 miles.

Accessories were difficult to source but eventually I discovered Mazda-Accessories.com and added rear mud flaps, boot liner, mats etc, to the vehicle - most at reasonable cost. New 235 tyres were li ...
