UNKNOWN OR OTHER, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
STANDING WATER ON DRIVER SIDE FLOOR.HVAC DRAIN PLUG IS CLOGGED AND NOW WARNING LIGHTS FOR MANY DIFFERENT ITEMS ARE APPEARING ON DASH DISPLAY AND THIS IS CAUSED BY WATER RUNNING THROUGH. I DO NOT KNOW OF MANY AUTO MAKERS THAT PUT DRAIN PLUG UNDER DASH BOARD. THIS COULD VERY WELL TURN INTO AN ELECTRICAL AND OR FIRE HAZARD. CONTACTED DEALER AND WAS TOLD THIS WAS THE FIRST THEY HAVE HEARD OF THIS. THERE ARE MANY MANY MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE SO THEY DO KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THIS INVESTIGATION WAS OPENED ON DECEMBER 30, 2009, BASED ON FIVE CONSUMER REPORTS ALLEGING GASOLINE FUEL LEAKING FROM THE FUEL FILL PIPE. SOME OF THE COMPLAINANTS INDICATED THE FUEL FILL PIPE HAD CORRODED TO THE POINT OF BEING PERFORATED, ALLOWING FUEL TO LEAK FROM THE PIPE. WE HAD THIS FIXED IN CONCORD, NH. NOW IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED AGAIN. THEY SAY THEY DO NOT FIX IT TWICE. I CALLED LAST NOVEMBER AND MITSUBISHI WAS NO HELP AT ALL. WE HAVE ONLY 115, 000 MILES ON THE CAR.

THE ROOF RACK HAS VERY FLIMSY PAINT AND HAS BEEN PEELING FOR YEARS. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT COVERED. I COMMUTE ON THE FREEWAY AND 90% OF THE ENDEAVORS I SEE HAVE PAINT PEELING OFF THEIR ROOF RACK. I HAVE KEPT THIS CAR IN THE GARAGE FOR THE LAST 8 OUT OF 10 YEARS. IT HAS BEEN PROTECTED FROM THE ELEMENTS AND ISN'T DRIVEN MUCH AND STILL THE ROOF RACK LOOKS AWFUL! IF I WERE LOOKING TO BUY A NEW CAR AND SAW THIS, I CERTAINLY WOULD NOT WANT A CAR WITH A PAINT PROBLEM. *TR

EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY, STRUCTURE
ON VAC. WHILE DRIVING NOTICED THE DRIVER SIDE FLOORBOARD SOAKED. READ ON LINE SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. SEEMS TO BE A DEFECT FROM FACTORY RELATING TO THE AIR CONDITIONER. WAS FIXED IN 2005 MODELS. IT CAN BE DANGEROUS AS YOUR SHOE GETS WET AND CAN SLIP ON THE BRAKE OR GAS PEDAL. I UNDERSTAND IT IS A $800.00 FIX.MITSUBISHI WHY HAVEN'T YOU DONE A RECALL ON THIS?? *JS

DRIVER SIDE FLOOR STAYS SOPPING WET. I AM ASSUMING THIS IS FROM THE AC DRAIN HOSE. MECHANICS WANT $700-1000 TO ATTEMPT TO FIX THE PROBLEM, BUT SAY THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES AS THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING DEFECT WITH THE 2004 ENDEAVOR. THIS RAISES SEVERAL SAFETY ISSUES WITH MAIN ONE BEING THAT FEET ARE WET AND SLIPPERY AND LIKELY TO CAUSE BEING UNABLE TO BRAKE AS NEEDED DUE TO FOOT SLIPPING OFF PEDAL. OTHER SAFETY CONCERNS ARE IN REGARDS TO THE MOLD DUE TO BEING UNABLE TO KEEP IT DRY. PLEASE RECALL THIS AND HAVE IT FIXED AS IT SHOULD BE. THE CONSUMER SHOULD NOT HAVE TO ABSORB THIS COST WHEN IT IS A DEFECT THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE OCCURRED. *TR
