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.

KEYLESS ENTRY WILL NOT OPEN OR LOCK THE DOORS, WHILE AT LOCAL GAS STATION WENT INSIDE AND CAR WAS NOT THERE WHEN GOT OUTSIDE AS IF IT WAS STOLEN BUT IN FACT HAD ROLLED INTO TRAFFIC AND HIT A CAR AT THE RED LIGHT CAUSING DAMAGE TO BOTH VEHICLES! THE POLICE ARRIVED TO INVESTIGATE. A ACCIDENT REPORT WAS MADE AND DAMAGE AND WELL BEING ASSESSMENT TAKEN. THE DEALER WHO SOLD THIS VEHICLE TO ME A FEW MONTHS AGO SHOULD KNOW WHAT THEY ARE SELLING TO CUSTOMERS PRIOR TO SELL BECAUSE IN THIS CASE SOMEONE COULD HAVE LOST THEIR LIVES. I CALLED THE DEALER AND HE SAID IT IS MY PROBLEM NOW AND DOES NOT WANT TO GIVE ME LICENSE PLATES FROM DEPOSIT OWED WHICH WILL ALL THE ISSUES AND POTENTIAL OUT OF POCKET COSTS PLATES SHOULD BE GIVEN TO ME IN GOOD FAITH. *TR

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
