POWER TRAIN:TRANSFER CASE (4-WHEEL DRIVE) |
REGARDING NHTSA RECALL ID: 02V143001 FOR THE TRANSFER CASE ON THE 1995 MITSUBISHI 3000GT VR-4. MY CAR'S TRANSFER CASE BEGAN LEAKING ABOUT 100 MILES AGO. THROUGH MY CAR CLUB I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS A SAFETY RECALL ISSUED ON THIS AND TO CALL THE DEALER. I CALLED THE DEALER TO SEE WHEN I COULD SCHEDULE MY REPAIR AND THEY ASKED FOR MY VIN#. WHEN THEY RAN THE VIN# THEY FOUND OUT THAT THE PREVIOUS CAR OWNER TOOK THE CAR IN DEC. OF 2002 AND THE TRANSFER CASE PASSED INSPECTION SO THE SAFETY RECALL WAS NO LONGER AVAILABLE FOR MY CAR. I THEN CALLED MITSUBISHI OF NORTH AMERICA AND THEY TOLD ME THEY WERE NO LONGER LIABLE FOR THIS REPAIR. I WENT BACK TO MY CAR CLUB AND FOUND OUT FROM SEVERAL MEMBERS THAT THEY HAD THE RECALL DONE SEVERAL TIMES WITH LITTLE OR NO HASSLE FROM MITSUBISHI. THEY SUGGESTED I CONTACT YOU AND FILE A COMPLAINT. IF THIS ISN'T ADDRESSED, THE TRANSFER CASE CAN LOCK UP AT HIGH SPEEDS CAUSING MY REAR WHEELS TO SEIZE AND MY VEHICLE TO LOSE CONTROL AND POSSIBLY ROLL OR SPIN OUT OF CONTROL. SO THIS IS DEFINITELY A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT NOW, AND I CERTAINLY WON'T EVEN CONSIDER LETTING MY WIFE OR 6 MONTH OLD SON RIDE IN THE CAR UNTIL THIS IS ADDRESSED. MY CAR HAS 127K MILES ON IT SO IT HAS BEEN DRIVING LESS THAN 12K A YEAR. MITSUBISHI DIDN'T REPLACE OR FIX ANYTHING ON THE TRANSFER CASE WHEN THE RECALL WAS ORIGINALLY DONE IN 2002. I FEEL THEY SHOULD STILL BE LIABLE FOR THIS. I'VE HAD NOTHING BUT GRIEF WITH THEM EVERYTIME I TRY TO HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE FOR SAFETY RELATED ISSUES. LAST YEAR I HAD TO BUY NEW SEAT BELTS BECAUSE MINE NO LONGER RETRACTED. MANUFACTURERS LIKE HONDA AND TOYOTA WARRANTY SEAT BELTS FOR THE LIFE OF THE CAR. I WOULD BUY A NEW TRANSFER CASE, EXCEPT WITH PARTS AND LABOR IT WOULD BE OVER $3000 AND I DON'T FEEL THIS IS MY RESPONSIBILITY SINCE THERE IS A GOVERNMENT MANDATED SAFETY RECALL ON THIS, AND IT TECHNICALLY HAS NEVER BEEN REPAIRED OR SERVICED BEFORE. *NM |
