| 2004 | SEAT BELTS:FRONT | I JUST BOUGHT A MITSUBISHI LANCER, SEAT BELT IS WAY TOO SHORT, IT LITERALLY CHOKES ME, IS HARD TO BUCKLE AND UNBUCKLE WITH MY HANDS/ MITSUBISHI DEALER SAYS SEAT BELT HAS TO BE DEFECTIVE BEFORE THEY WILL REPLACE. THEY WILL NOT ADD AN EXTENSION ON IT. I HAVE 2 CHOICES -DON'T WEAR A SEAT BELT AND GET TICKETS OR DIE IN A WRECK, OR WEAR IT, HAVE TO KEEP SEAT PUSHED SO FAR BACK TO MAKE SEAT BELT BUCKLE- BUT THEN CAN HARDLY REACH PEDALS, AND CANT BREATHE OR BE COMFORTABLE WEARING IT BECAUSE IT CUTS OFF MY CHEST TERRIBLY. I AM PERMANENTLY DISABLED WITH ANY PROBLEMS AND NOT BEING ABLE TO WEAR MY SEAT BEALT SCARES ME AS A SEAT BELT SAVE MY LIFE IN JAN 2005. *JB |
| 2008 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE | 2008 MITSUBISHI LANCER EVOLUTION X GSR THE CAR HAS A PROJECTED MPG PER TANK OF 280. I HAVE HAD THE CAR FROM MILE 4 ON THE ODOMETER & HAVE NEVER GOTTEN OVER 195 MI PER TANK. I CONTACTED ANAHEIM MITSUBISHI WHERE I PURCHASED BY VEHICLE & THEY KNEW NOTHING OF THE ISSUE & COULD NOT ASSIST BUT ONLY TOLD ME AFTER I HAD GONE THERE 2 TIMES FOR ASSISTANCE/CORRECTION ON THE ISSUE. I THEN TOOK THE CAR TO SOUTH COAST MITSUBISHI & THEY KNEW OF THE ISSUE & STATED THAT THERE WAS AN ECU FLASH THAT WOULD CORRECT THE AIR/FUEL RATIO &A FEW OTHER ISSUES. AT THE TIME I TOOK IT IN FOR WHAT I THOUGHT WAS RUBBING & THAT ISSUE WAS FIXED BUT I AM STILL HAVING ISSUES WITH THE CAR CONSUMING SO MUCH FUEL. I HAVE RESORTED TO LESS DRIVING, UNTIL SOMEONE CAN ACTUALLY PROVE TO ME THE ECU HAS BEEN FLASHED OR UNTIL MITSUBISHI ACTUALLY FIXES THIS ISSUE FOR REAL. *TR |
