POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
1. MY 2005 ENDEAVOR HAS 11,000 KMS, COVERED BY THE WARRANTY (IT HAS LESS THAN A YEAR SINCE I BOUGHT IT. LST FRIDAY I WAS DRIVING NORMALLY TO MY WORK WHEN I FELT THUMPS AND IF IT WERE PULLING BACK AND FORTH. I DON'T KNOW HOW BUT I MANAGED TO PARK, AND WHEN I DID SOMETHING UNDER IT RIPPED OFF AND A HUGE SPOT OF OIL APPEARED. IT LEAKED ALL THE TRANSMISSION FLUID ON THE PAVEMENT. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN LETHAL IF IT WERE ON A ROAD, ACCORDING TO THE MECHANIC. NOW MITSUBISHI REFUSES TO RECOGNIZE WARRANTY. THE CAUSE WAS A BROKEN HOSE OF TRANSMISSION FLUID WHICH CAUSED THE LEAKAGE. *NM
