ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
2006 MITSUBISHI RAIDER @ 42,000 MILES. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH NO SOLUTIONS. FIRST I HAD ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS, LIGHTS AND DASH CUTTING OFF, NO SPEEDOMETER, RADIO WOULD CUT OFF. ONCE IT WOULDN'T CRANK, I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHERE THEY SAID I WAS MISSING A FUSE, APPARENTLY IT FELL OUT WHILE IN ROUTE TO DEALERSHIP, BECAUSE I CHECKED ALL OF THEM BEFORE I CALLED TOW TRUCK, CHECKED WITH TEST LIGHT, ALL WERE WORKING, ALL WERE IN PLACE.......50.00 FOR THE TOW, 40.00+ TO REPLACE A FUSE. CONSTANTLY USES BRAKE FLUID.....TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS LOW ON BRAKE FLUID.....PROBABLY BECAUSE IT WAS LEAKING ALL OVER THE DRUM, DEALER DID NOT FIX. HAD SOME KIND OF ECU REPLACED FOR ELECTRONICS, STILL DIDN'T FIX PROBLEM. TRUCKS REAR BRAKES BEGAN TO DRAG AND LOCK UP. CALLED DEALER, THEY SAID MY SERIES OF VIN NUMBERS WASN'T INCLUDED IN THERE RECALL, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS DOING THE SAME AS THE SO CALLED RECALLED VEHICLES. EVENTUALLY I GUESS IT BROKE, BECAUSE IT HASN'T BEEN DRAGGING THE BRAKES, ALTHOUGH THERE IS A LARGE BRAKE FLUID LEAK ON DRIVERS SIDE REAR TIRE, AND NOW MY REAR END(HOG HEAD)(GEARCASE) IS LEAKING GEAR OIL. I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THERE ARE NO SOLUTIONS TO MITSUBISHI'S MISTAKES UNLESS THEY ARE RESOLVED FROM MY WALLET. I GUESS THEY ARE ONLY LIABLE IF MORE THAN 100 PEOPLE ARE KILLED IN ACCIDENTS HAPPEN.......TOYOTA STOOD UP AND FIXED THEIR PROBLEM.......HOW COME MITSUBISHI CANT? THOROUGHLY DISGUSTED BY DEALERS AND THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT........OR LACK OF SERVICE DEPARTMENT. I HAVE HAD VERBAL CONFRONTATIONS WITH ALL SERVICE MANAGERS, EVEN CONTACTED MITSUBISHI MAIN OFFICE, STILL AT NO PREVAIL.......SO I GUESS I WILL DRIVE IT TO THE WHEELS FALL OFF, SHOULDN'T BE MUCH LONGER, REAR END IS LEAKING FAIRLY BAD NOW. I CAN'T AFFORD TO HAVE IT FIXED, EVEN THOUGH THEY SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR MISTAKES..... *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
FOR THE LAST 2 YEARS THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD RUST ISSUES, THE WHOLE THING IS RUSTING THROUGH. UNDERNEATH, BUMPER, TOW HOOKS, THE PARTS UNDERNEATH THE TRUCK. I WAS BLOWN OFF BY MITSHUBISHI WHEN I COMPLAINED. THEY TOLD ME THIS WAS MY ISSUE TO DUE I LIVED IN MAINE. SERIOUSLY, THIS TRUCK WAS TAKEN CARE OF AND I HAVE BEEN THE ONLY OWNER, AND IT'S A 2006 AND I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW MARCH OF 2007 MAKE IT 5 YEARS OLD! ALSO THE BRAKES NEVER HOLD ON IT, I HAVE JUST HAD ALL OF THE PADS REPLACED AGAIN, ROTORS, BALL JOINTS, CONTROL ARMS, THE TRUCK STILL WONT STOP AND SWAYS AND DRIFTS AROUND CORNERS. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS. AND THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE FRONT END OF THIS TRUCK. *TR
