MY V-6 (3.8) GT HAS APPROXIMATELY 80,000 MILES ON IT. THE CODE (PO421) HAS COME UP ON AN OBII WHICH IS THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. IN MY STATE (WASHINGTON) THE RECALL ON THIS PART IS NOT HONORED, DUE TO THE 80000 MILE WARRANTY. IN MANY OTHER STATES IT IS WARRANTIED TO 100,000 MILES. WHETHER OTHER STATES HAVE STRICTER EMISSION LAWS, OR WHATEVER THE REASON, THIS DOES NOT CHANGE THE LIFE EXPECTANCY, PERFORMANCE OR MAKEUP OF THE PART THAT IS EXPECTED TO LAST 100000 MILES. IN SHORT, I AM HOPING TO GET A STANDARDIZED AND EQUAL TREATMENT AS OTHERS DRIVING THE SAME VEHICLE WITH A FAIR WARRANTY. *TR

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN JULY THAT THE BRAKES COULD FAIL IF THE ABS IS ACTIVATED. MITSUBISHI REFERRED ME TO A DEALER (THE ONLY DEALER IN NEVADA). THE DEALER SAID THEY CAN'T MAKE ANY REPAIRS, BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX THE CAR. SO, I CALLED MITSUBISHI, AND THEY SAID THERE IS NO REPAIR SOLUTION AVAILABLE. SO I REQUESTED A LOANER, SINCE MY CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. THEY TOLD ME THEY DON'T SUPPLY LOANERS, AND THAT I SHOULD CONTINUE DRIVING THE CAR UNLESS THE BRAKES FAIL. UNBELIEVABLE! TWO MONTHS LATER, THE BRAKES FAILED AFTER ABS SYSTEM WAS ACTIVATED IN THE RAIN AND I SLID THROUGH AN INTERSECTION ALMOST CAUSING A MAJOR ACCIDENT ON A CITY STREET AT 45MPH AFTER TRYING TO STOP USING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THE DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE ME FOR THE TOW (BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS DISABLED) AND FOR STORAGE (BECAUSE THEY ALLEGEDLY DON'T HAVE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR). MITSUBISHI OFFERED NO HELP WHATSOEVER. THEY REFERRED ME BACK TO THE DEALER, AND THE DEALER CLAIMS THEY CAN'T MAKE THE REPAIR. I TOLD MITSUBISHI ABOUT MY PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE, AND THEY WERE NO HELP AT ALL. THEY SAID THEY AREN'T AUTHORIZED TO MAKE ANY DECISIONS, AND THAT ONLY THE DEALERSHIP CAN OPT TO TOW/REPAIR THE CAR OR SUPPLY A LOANER. SO NOW MY CAR SITS IN THE PARKING LOT, BROKEN DOWN WITH NO BRAKES, WITH A RECALL NOTICE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THEY WANT ME TO TOW THE CAR 45 MILES OUT OF MY OWN POCKET, OR DRIVE THE CAR WITH NO BRAKES. THEN THEY EXPECT ME TO PAY FOR THE LOANER. AND THEY EXPECT ME TO PAY FOR STORAGE WHILE THE CAR SITS ON THEIR LOT WAITING FOR MITSUBISHI TO COME UP WITH A REPAIR SOLUTION. UNBELIEVABLE.

WHILE PERFORMING A STOP THE BRAKE PEDAL LOST ALL PRESSURE AND WENT TO THE FLOOR. THE CAR DID STOP BUT TOOK LONGER TO DO SO. AFTER REVIEWING THE RECALL NOTICE FOR ABS BRAKES I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO A MITSUBISHI DEALER WHO CONFIRMED THERE WAS A RECALL BUT DID NOT INSPECT ANYTHING BEYOND DRIVING THE CAR TO TEST THE BRAKES. BETWEEN THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT AND THE ONE AND A HALF WEEKS THEY CLAIMED WAS THE NEXT AVAILABLE APPOINTMENT THE BRAKES RETURNED TO NORMAL OPERATION. THE RECALL (15V337) STATES THE HYDRAULIC UNIT WILL BE FLUSHED, CLEANED AND INSPECTED. THE DEALER INDICATED THEY WERE ONLY TESTING THE BRAKING SYSTEM BY DRIVING IT AND WHEN THE INCIDENT DID NOT PRODUCE THE SAME RESULT, THAT WAS THE END OF THEIR RESPONSIBILITY UNTIL I RECEIVED A CERTIFIED LETTER FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THIS RECALL WAS ISSUED IN MAY 2015 AND IT IS NOW THE BEGINNING OF OCTOBER 2015. THE MANUFACTURER IS OBVIOUSLY DELAYING DOING THE APPROPRIATE INSPECTION AND REPAIR WHILE THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE CONTINUES TO AFFECT MANY CONSUMERS.

WHEN DRIVING HOME FROM WORK GOING 30 MPH I TURNED RIGHT AND NEEDED TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT APPROXIMATELY 200 FEET AHEAD. WHEN I DEPRESSED MY BREAK PEDAL IT WENT ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR BOARD AND HAD VERY LITTLE, IF ANY REACTION. ALSO, THERE WAS A STRANGE SOUND WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE PEDAL. I TOOK THE CAR TO A DEALER IN GOODLETTSVILLE, TN TO BE DIAGNOSED BUT THEY SAID IT WAS SOMETHING TOTALLY DIFFERENT THAN THE PROBLEM I WAS HAVING. I DECLINED THE SERVICE. IT HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES SINCE THEN, WITH MY BREAKS GOING BACK TO NORMAL AFTER I STOP AND RESTART THE CAR. HOWEVER, A FEW WEEKS AGO THIS HAPPENED AND THEY HAVE NOT GONE BACK TO NORMAL. AFTER FINDING THE RECALL, I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP NEAREST ME BUT THEY SAID THEY CANNOT FIX IT YET BECAUSE THEY ARE WAITING ON PARTS, AND IT IS MY JOB, YET BECAUSE OF THEIR FAULTY ENGINEERING, TO BRING A CAR THAT I WILL NOT DRIVE BECAUSE OF THIS MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE TO THEM. IT IS TAKING MITSUBISHI AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF TIME TO SECURE PARTS FOR THIS MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE.
