Some Mazda Tribute owners report experiencing issues with the driver's door sensor, including malfunctions that may be temporarily resolved by applying WD-40 to the latch and repeatedly opening and shutting the door. However, if the problem persists or worsens, some owners find it necessary to replace the sensor or address underlying mechanical issues within the door panel. In cases where lubrication does not resolve the malfunction, seeking professional assistance for further diagnosis and repair may be required to ensure the proper functionality of the door sensor. Prompt attention to these issues is essential for maintaining vehicle safety and functionality.
