Lights dim very frequently at night. The alternator was replaced. Problem is still present. Taken to be fixed 3 times, could not be fixed. This was reported to dealer within a month of purchase of the vehicle. They have done nothing. Mitsubishi has been notified and are currently looking into the problem. The cause is still unknown.

Lights dim frequently at night took to dealer, dealer replaced alternator under warranty. Problems still persist. Also tires squeel unusualy loud when taking turns at normal speeds. Brakes shake when applied. Strongly considering trading in for other brand of car. Will never by Mitsubishi ever again!
