Asked by PdxRyder Jul 07, 2018 at 08:01 PM about the 2005 Mazda Tribute s 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Vehicle stalls when coming to a stop after highway driving unless it's put into
neutral or park. Vehicle re-starts in neutral or park, but stalls again when put
into gear. Idle speed is fine, 800 to 1000 rpm. No check engine light. Once
engine cools of down, problem is resolved.
