The automatic passenger airbag sensor does not operate properly. My wife weighs about 120 pounds and the light goes on and off at random on the highway are just sitting still. The dealer has zero solutions and we are following the instructions in the manual which states the weight threshold to be 80 lbs. If we're in an accident and her airbag doesn't deploy there will be a problem. Vehicle is an 2011 mazda tribute.
Head-on collision with power pole at 55 mph. Driver air bag failed to deploy. (no passengers on board).
Twice, while driving under 25 mph, and both times while turning to the right, the power steering has stopped working. When checked by a mechanic, it was determined to be the steering shaft torque sensor malfunctioned: code b2278-2f
Driving on highway, engine just failed to accelerate suddenly and had to coast over to the breakdown lane. Engine did not turn completely off as it continued to hesitate and rpms fluctuated between 500-1000 but gas pedal would not accelerate car. Immediately put hazard lights on so cars behind me would know thar i was not at constant speed anymore.

I have always had an acceleration issue with this vehicle.many many times, feels like the car is just not going to move when i try to accelerate.about 4 weeks, ago, car literally just wouldn't move when i was in traffic, the wrench light came on, indicating a transmission issue.i had the vehicle towed to the dealer, who found nothing.2 days ago, exact same thing happened again, in traffic.we had the car again towed, and this time they found the throttle needed to be replaced.i think it was always bad, but 2011 was not a vehicle year included in the throttle recall for the mazda tribute.
Car begin to shimmy between gear shifts felt like transmission was going to fall out on the road.slipped between gear shifts intermittently afterwords
I was driving my vehicle on a city street, and the steering suddenly began to lock up. The vehicle was in motion when this occurred. I was not able to turn or control the steering wheel; it became extremely hard. I was not on my brakes, i was driving straight with my feet on the gas. This happened twice in the last 4 days. I brought the vehicle to the mazda dealership and they said the steering wheel column needed to be replaced, the torque sensor, and calibration. I read the 2011 mazda and ford escapes that was built in the kansas city factory were recalled for this same exact issue in 2014 which i did not own the vehicle at that time.

The contact owns a 2011 mazda tribute. The contact stated that when depressing the brakes, he would haphazardly depress the accelerator pedal simultaneously. The contact had concerns with the distance between the two pedals and stated that they were entirely too close together. The vehicle was not inspected or repaired and the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The current mileage was 4,500. The failure mileage was 5.
