My vehicle has had over 10 recalls but Mitsubishi has refused to properly fix any of the problems. I will attach a photo of the control arms and certain parts and recalls THEY cleared, and sent me on my way with. Now there is full suspension damage. Tire damage. And an entire list of other recalls that were never fixed by Mitsubishi. Also Airbag light, incorrect gas level. Windshield fluid leaking, and more. My front tire is about to fly off. There are problems with the struts. And no mechanic wants to touch it due to a strut recall and can-€™t even buy struts anywhere for my car. They have been taken off the market completely. I have a 8 year old child in this car. And both of our lives at risk. I have brought it to several mechanics and they are in shock at the damage and how we have survived. I have had to pay with my own money for certain repairs because Mitsubishi said -€œeverything looks fine-€ and sent me on my way. And now refuse to open a claim and pay it back. Or fix all the damage it has caused since the first control arm problem. I can get receipts and invoices together. But honestly the entire car is A huge liability and needs an IMMEDIATE SOLUTION!

A parking brake recall has not fixed the corrosion/locking of rear parking break calipers. Rolls while in gear and turned off-if on incline. Parking brake doesn't engage fully and then sticks but will not keep car from moving. Sticks while frozen or in warm weather.

Hi, help please help car dealer rip off. North palm Mitsubishi owner manager guy, sold me 3 cars. One financed through santanler 2011 Nissan altama. I went to work part time to stay mentally healthy as disabled since 1995 I was 35 yr old florsheim executive. I was rear ended& double head-on collision. My car 3 months old 3000 miles on it. Npm guy mgr offered no help in getting me any type of transportation. "I need $1000 down payment to get you into another car." "extra funds"" mr [xxx]. you have treated my people so badly after I did you a favor in financing you.2nd month I missed having transportation. Now by missing house payment to take care of my health again very physically sick man if not taken care of....... I cannot be without a vehicle, I was given 1 car to purchase out of 75 in the lot 4 of which were outlanders under 15000 under 40,000 miles & less. I asked guy to please keep payments under $350. Payment $417. I saw a warning code acs failure meaning ABS not working, & power assist steering also not working.the wipers came on all by themselves. Npbm did not tow this unsafe car, I paid to have it taken back to dealer for yet another 10 shop stay no transportation. This whole operation needs to be investigated as just noticed that passenger side front carpet still had new carpet plastic covering after 6 years" corrupt selling salvaged re titled vehicles is my guess. Mitsubishi turned their back when I in formed them as if the less they know the better. In my success in business customer service comes first. Along with honesty and no degradation or taken advantage of and the owner of R & B llc is not even close to being a fair business man. Please please help me.
