STEERING:HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM
PRIOR TO THE AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT ON DECEMBER 27, 2005 THERE WAS NO PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE. WAS PURCHASED IN JULY OF 2005 (DEMO CAR-USED). THE ACCIDENT HAPPEN AS FOLLOWS, IT WAS COLD THAT NIGHT I WAS MAKING A RIGHT TURN GOING WEST INTO THE MIDDLE LANE. UNFORTUNATELY MY CAR DID NOT GO STRAIGHT BUT CONTINUE TO TURN. I CROSSED OVER FAR RIGHT LANE, THEN THE SIDE WALK INTO AN UTILITY POLL. COULD NOT CONTROL THE STEERING WHEEL OF THE CAR. THE WHEEL LOCKED, COULD NOT TURN THE CAR AT ALL. THE CAR CRASHED INTO AN UTILITY POLL IMPLODING BOTH AIR BAGS. MY INSURANCE COMPANY'S ADJUSTER DEEMED IT A TOTAL LOSS NON-REPAIR. NOT SURE IF THERE WERE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS MODEL OF CAR AT ALL, JUST WANTED TO REPORT THIS INCIDENT WITH THE DEALERSHIP TO INFORMED THEM OF WHAT HAPPEN, SO THAT IT WOULD BE ON THEIR RECORDS, JUST IN CASE ANOTHER INCIDENT HAPPEN WITH THIS MODELED CAR TO SOMEONE ELSE THAT WAS ALL, BUT THEY DID NOT ASSIST ME. I WANTED TO SEE IF THERE COULD BE A INVESTIGATION TO LOOK AT THE CAR TO SEE WHAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THE WHEEL TO LOCK AND FOR ME TO NOT HAVE CONTROL OF THE CAR. JUST WANTED THIS ON FILE TO LET YOU KNOW.*AK

STEERING
BOUGHT MY VEHICLE AS A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED VEHICLE WITH 37,213 MILES ON IT. AT 43,000 MILES, VEHICLE BEGAN HAVING MALFUNCTIONS WITH THE ALL WHEEL CONTROL SYSTEM AND ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL HYDRAULIC PUMP. THIS SHOULD BE AN ITEM COVERED UNDER THE 5 YEAR/60,000 MILE WARRANTY, HOWEVER, MITSUBISHI STATES THAT IT IS NOT COVERED, EVEN THOUGH IT IS PART OF THE POWER-TRAIN, AND REQUIRED TO WORK FOR VEHICLE STABILITY AND SAFETY. MITSUBISHI HAS CONTINUED TO REFUSE TO WARRANTY THE PUMP. THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED ISSUE, AND THERE HAVE BEEN DOZENS, MAYBE HUNDREDS OF OTHER CARS WITH THE EXACT SAME MALFUNCTION, MANY OF THESE WERE TURNED AWAY BY MITSUBISHI EVEN WHILE THEY WERE UNDER THE POWER-TRAIN WARRANTY. *TR
