| 1996 | POWER TRAIN:TRANSFER CASE (4-WHEEL DRIVE) | TRANSFER CASE SEIZED UP DUE TO LEAK N TRANSFERCASE. MANUFACTURER REFUSES TO UPHOLD RECALL AND FIX THE PROBLEM. DURING SEIZE UP CSR LOSTCONTROL AND SPUN OUT OF CONTROL ON I-25 LUCKLY NO ONE WAS INJUERD BUT I STILL HOLD MITSUBISHI AND DEALERS RESPONSIBLE. THEY STILL HAVE YET TO CONTACT MY LAWYER. *AK |
| 1993 | POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION | THE ORIGINAL TRANSMISSION FAILED WHILE THE ORIGINAL OWNER HAD THE CAR, IT WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AT 61,268 MILES. SINCE THEN I BOUGHT THE CAR USED AT ABOUT 72K MILES, AND AGAIN THE TRANSMITION IS FAILING. IT SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR THE SYNCROS ON THE TRANSMITION TO GO BAD , CAUSING GRINDING WHEN SHIFTING INTO SECOND GEAR. MITSUBISHI (OR ANYONE ELSE) OFFERS NO REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR THIS TRANSMITION. THEY CONSIDER IT ONE PART, THE WHOLE GETRAG TRANSMISSION IS A $5000 REPLACEMENT PART. I CALLED MITSUBISHI AND THEY SAID THE 61,268 MILE REPLACEMENT WAS WARRANTIED FOR ONLY 12 MONTHS OR 12K MILES. I FEEL IT IS VERY WRONG THAT THEY PUT A TRANSMITION IN THE CAR THAT ONLY LAST ABOUT 15,000 MILES. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON ALL MITSUBISHI MANUAL TRANSMITIONS DUE TO EXCESSIVE FAILURE RATES. *AK |
