THE INSURANCE COMPANY FOR THE CLAIM FOR THE REPAIRS ONLY PAID TO FIX THE BUMPER AND VERY LITTLE ELSE. FRONT END DAMAGE NOTHING UNDERCARRIAGE. ITS HAS BEEN VERY EXPENSIVE.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
I ROLLED DOWN THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW IN THE MORNING TO GO THROUGH A DRIVE THRU FOR BREAKFAST. WHEN ROLLING THE WINDOW BACK UP, IT MADE A SCREECHING SOUND. LATER THAT EVENING WHEN I LEFT WORK, THE ENTIRE WINDOW WAS STILL IN THE FRAME BUT WAS COMPLETELY SHATTERED. MY WORK REVIEWED SECURITY TAPES FOR POSSIBLE FOUL PLAY BUT NOBODY APPROACHED MY CAR ALL DAY. IT APPEARS THE INSIDE MECHANISM OF THE POWER WINDOW WEAKENED THE GLASS. I HAVE FILED TWO OTHER COMPLAINTS OF HOW BOTH REAR WINDOWS HAVE ROLLED THEMSELVES DOWN INTO THE DOOR FRAMES. THERE APPEARS TO BE SERIOUS ISSUES WITH THE WINDOW MOTORS ON THIS VEHICLE AND I AM UNABLE TO USE MY WINDOWS AS NORMAL. *TR

I HAVE RECEIPT FOR ALL THESE INCIDENTS. I CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE DOOR PANELS WILL NOT STAY ATTACHED ON THIS CAR. MITSUBISHI SHOULD REIMBURSE ME FOR ALL THE EXPENSES ASSOCIATED WITH PREVIOUS REPAIR OF THESE PANELS AND FIX THE PANEL FOR THE REAR DOOR. I ALSO NEED ASSURANCE AND PROOF THAT THEY WILL REPAIR AT NO COST ANY FUTURE PANELS THAT COME LOOSE AS LONG AS I OWN THIS CAR. THIS IS RIDICULOUS THAT YOU CANNOT GET OUT OF YOUR CAR BECAUSE THE PANEL CATCHES. *TR
