The problem has been on going over time and started by noticing moisture in the rear lights. With time the moisture turned into water that caused bulbs to burn out.the rear lights absorb moisture which condenses into water that affects the light bulbs and had to change the bulbs countless times and eventually the lighting stopped working completely. Today the lamp on the right side has accumulated rust and is no longer functional with the turn signal which is dangerous while driving and would like to change lanes.upon taking the vehicle to the dealer, the dealer refused responsibility claiming the vehicle has surpassed the mileage threshold. Only advise was to buy new lamps which cost around $400 whereas there is no guarantee the new lights won't absorb moisture and the cycle repeats. It's in this respect that these issue should be investigated what causes the moisture in the lamps and Mitsubishi should replace the lights without charges to the consumer because it's responsible for substandard products that was not caused by the consumer. Will appreciate help accorded.
