2010 Mazda Tribute Fuel system Problems

“2010 Mazda Tribute with 57k on it just died while doing 80 down the freeway, had to get it towed. It simply shutoff. I think its the fuel pump but I am not really sure. Plugged it into a scanner and no codes. It started up after the tow. The googles says this is common in the Tribute/ ford escapes. Not safe at all.”

“Fuel fill neck diagnostic code po457 occurred and the check engine light came on which seemed to cause the vehicle to sputter, and to have loss of power while driving. Upon inspection there is nothing wrong with the part. Upon a google search other have had the same problem and it appears they recalled this same vehicle with the 3.0 engine (mine has the 2.5).”

“Everytime I fill the car up with gas it does this thing where I lose power when I stop or when I turn the wheel. So I have to stop and start the car. Its very dangerous because it has cut off while I was making a turn. We have tried to fix it several times. We replaced the fuel pump and that helped for a month or two but then it goes right back to cutting off after it is filled up with gas.”
