Can you find somewhere to buy engine coolant other than the dealer for your 2001 Mazda tribute that works just the same if not better?

Nope ... it's a "gotcha" thing. VW does the same thing ... in both cases, they use a proprietary formula to create specific ingredients that are quite different from normal anti-freeze commercially available. They claim the use of any other type of liquid in the coolant system will do considerable damage ... I don't think anyone wants to find out yet if that is really true ... maybe you do and will report back to us here.

Why does coolant light come on when coolant level is ok on 2001 Mazda tribute?
I have a 2003 that has that same problem. After dealing with this issue for a year, I finally took it to the dealer and they determined that it was the coolant cap. So they installed a brand new cap and the coolant light hasn't come on since it was installed, just over a month. Another possibility: The sensor in the coolant reservoir has been known to go bad according to Mazda Parts Dept. The sensor and reservoir and sold as one part. I replaced mine and the light went off.

I have a 2001 Mazda Tribute. Why would my engine coolant light stay on and the fluid is not low It goes off then it will come back on. Any suggestions?
Our Tribute is doing the same. Anyone help? It can be the sensor or have the cap checked out. The caps in these go bad. You can replace the cap/container (sold as one unit), or try putting in approximately 1 qt of coolant above the full line (sometimes this works). the floating ball sinks and the sensor goes on to make the light come on there ios a recall for this bring it to your Mazda dealer
