Plain-English summary
Mazda North American Operations is recalling certain model year 2010-2011 Mazda Tribute and Tribute Hybrid vehicles manufactured between March 3, 2009, and May 26, 2011. The recall involves 912 vehicles equipped with a 3.0L engine.
The Fuel Delivery Module (FDM) on these vehicles may crack, which can cause a fuel leak. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
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 were mailed on December 23, 2016, and owners will receive a second notice when remedy parts are in stock. Owners may contact Mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
