This is NOT anything wrong. It's only a fake alarm light to stop thives, don't worry! All Tribute has it.

What does it mean when is the symbol of a little car is constantly flashing off and on when the vehicle is turned off and the key is removed and the door is closed on the driver side including all of the drawers and the Trump, Greatest Hits 2002 Mazda Tribute and this has a light that constantly continue flashing when vehicle has no key in ignition the vehicle is in the park position. Including the emergency brake is turned on or pulled up, what can a person do when this continues to happen is there any way of shutting off this is it supposed to be on all the time when the key is removed and the vehicle is secured all the way around of it? Would you please, call me and let me know if this is considered normal? Phone number: my home phone number is, (909) 790-3355 City, Yucaipa parts of San Bernardino, CA.

It is part of the security system. It should go off when you insert the key and start the engine. When the car is parked and not running, ignition key removed, it flashes to indicate the security system is on.
