2008 Mazda Tribute Other or unknown Problems

“On my way out to store I backed up out of my driveway as I switched gears and went into drive my gas pedal was hard to push down on. I tried again then pedal was sticking then dropped all the way down to floor.

He pulled it back in the driveway and set the parking brake. It rolled down the driveway again. This death trap of a vehicle is listed in one of the recalls on the shift linkage. My transmissions were replaced in killeen, texas in 2012. …”

“The ignition switch turns accessories on, but will not easily start the engine when turned to the start position. It takes several repetitions of wiggling and pushing the key in when turning it to the start position until the car responds to the key start position. …”
