2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH WITH THE AIR CONDITIONING UNIT ACTIVATED WHEN THE CONTACT NOTICED A LARGE ACCUMULATION OF WATER ON THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR BOARD. THE FAILURE RECURRED WHENEVER THE AIR CONDITIONING UNIT WAS IN OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER EIGHT TIMES AND ON ONE OCCASION, AN UNKNOWN REPAIR WAS PERFORMED BUT THE FAILURE WAS NOT CORRECTED. THE VEHICLE WAS ALSO TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOUR TIMES BUT TO NO AVAIL. THERE WERE NO RESOLUTIONS FOR THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE DEFECT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNAVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 10V065000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE: STORAGE: TANK ASSEMBLY: FILLER PIPE AND CAP). AFTER THE REPAIRS, THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT THE FUEL TANK HAD FAILED, CAUSING A GASOLINE FUEL LEAK. THE FUEL TANK ASSEMBLY WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 264,514. UPDATED 1/23/13 *CN UPDATED 2/12/2013 *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE RECEIVED A RECALL IN REGARDS TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 10V065000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE: STORAGE: TANK ASSEMBLY: FILLER PIPE AND CAP). THE CONTACT CALLED HIS LOCAL DEALER TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. HOWEVER, HE WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR THE REPAIR UNTIL NOVEMBER 2012. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED BECAUSE THEY WERE UNABLE TO GIVE HIM A DEFINITE DATE AND WHEN THE RECALL REPAIR WILL ACTUALLY BE DONE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 150,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR CONDITIONER LEAKED WATER ONTO THE FLOOR MATS AND CAUSED THE FLOOR TO BECOME WET. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FROM THE FLOOR BEING WET, HIS FOOT SLIPPED OFF OF THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE CONTACT DID NOT CRASH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION WHERE THEY STATED THAT THE A/C DRAIN PAN WAS BLOCKED AND NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS FOR THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 170,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED THE CONTACT NOTICED WATER LEAKING UNDER THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE MAT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,000.

WE NOTICED A LOT OF WATER ON THE DRIVERS SIDE FLOORBOARD AFTER RECEIVING THE CAR BACK FROM RECEIVING HAIL DAMAGE REPAIR. WE CONTACTED THE AUTO REPAIRMAN ASSUMING THAT THE WATER WAS ASSOCIATED WITH THE REPAIR. WE WERE TOLD THAT IT WAS NOT THAT THE MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR HAS A DESIGN DEFECT WITH THE HEATER CORE AND AC DRAINAGE. A SECOND MECHANICAL OPINION CONFIRMED THIS. WE VACUUMED THE CAR USING A SHOP VAC AND DOCUMENTED 4 INCHES OF WATER REMOVED FROM THE CAR ON TWO SEPERATE VACUUMING SESSIONS. A MEMBER OF THE FAMILY IS ALLERGIC TO MOLD AND HAS FOUND THE RESULTING MOLD TO BE A HEALTH HAZARD. THIS IS THE ONLY MODE OF TRANSPORTATION FOR THE FAMILY AND THE QUOTED COST OF REPAIRS IS IN A RANGE OF $400-$900. THE WET FLOOR PRESENTS A POTENTIAL FOR PHYSICAL HARM AS IT IS EXTREMELY WET. *TR

LIKE MANY, MANY REPORTS THE DRIVERS SIDE FLOOR MAT IS SATURATED AND POOLED WITH WATER FROM THE AC/HVAC SYSTEM DRAINAGE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURE HAS TSB'S ON ON THE ISSUE WITH FOAM GASKET REPLACEMENT OR INITIALLY DRILLING A HOLE CLEANING IT OUT AND INSTALLING A RUBBER PLUG TSB-08-55-007. NOW INSTALLATION OF A HOSE USED FOR RADIATOR OVERFLOW ON AN ECLIPSE NOW BEING SUGGESTED NO: TSB-11-55-003. HOW IS THIS NOT A DESIGN FLAW AND HOW IS THE MOLD AND MOISTURE ISSUE NOT A SAFETY CONCERN. THE INTERNAL CAB PARTS ARE NOT COATED OR TREATED TO INHIBIT RUST FROM THIS EXCESSIVE MOISTURE. THE EXCESSIVE MOISTURE INSIDE THE VEHICLE ALSO ACCUMULATES ON THE INSIDE WINDSHIELD OF THE VEHICLE AS IT REMOVED THRU THE SYSTEM BUT RE-ENTERS THRU THE FIREWALL INTO THE FLOOR. *TR

FOR SOMETIME I HAVE NOTICE THAT MY MAT ON THE DRIVER SIDE IS ALWAYS WET. I'M AFRAID THAT THE FLOOR IS GOING TO GIVE OUT. ALSO, MY LATCH ON THE BACK JUST STOP WORKING. *TR

THE H-VAC SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK. WHEN AIR CONDITIONING IS USED WATER SEEPS INTO THE FLOORBOARD AND COMPLETELY SOAKS THE FLOOR AND MAT, WHICH CREATES A VERY RANK ODOR. TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM IT WILL COST THE CONSUMER APPROXIMATELY $800.00. THIS IS CLEARLY AN ENGINEER DEFECT/FLAW. WE WERE TOLD BY AN MITSUBISHI SERVICE REP THAT THE FOLLOWING YEAR (2005) IT WAS CORRECTED. OBVIOUSLY MITSUBISHI WAS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. WHY WASN'T A RECALL DONE ON THIS PROBLEM? I THINK IT CERTAINLY WARRANTS ONE. HOW MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE BEEN AFFECTED BY THIS? WHY SHOULD THE CONSUMER ASSUME COSTS FOR SOMETHING THAT WAS NOT MADE CORRECTLY? I AM BAFFLED, AS TO WHY A CAR CORPORATION WOULD NOT TAKE CARE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, SHE SWERVED TO AVOID A DEER AND LOST CONTROL OF HER VEHICLE. AS A RESULT, SHE CRASHED INTO SEVERAL TREES AND THE VEHICLE FLIPPED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. NONE OF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THE CONTACT WAS SEVERELY INJURED AND SUFFERED COLLAPSED LUNGS, BROKEN RIBS, A BROKEN PELVIS, A BROKEN LEG, AND BROKEN FINGERS. THE CONTACT WAS WAITING FOR A RESPONSE FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 95,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR, THE CONTACT STATED THAT AS HE STARTED THE VEHICLE, THERE WAS A MOLDY SMELL AND HE NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE FLOORBOARD WAS COMPLETELY SOAKED WITH WATER. THE WATER WAS COMING FROM UNDER THE FLOORBOARD FROM THE A/C UNIT DUE TO IMPROPER DRAINAGE. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED WHO ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO PULL THE AC UNIT AWAY FROM THE FIREWALL AND REPLACE A FAILED SEAL BETWEEN THE FIREWALL AND THE A/C BOX. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 147,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION, A HEAVY TRUCK CRASHED INTO THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND THE SEAT BELT DID NOT HOLD THE CONTACT IN PLACE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND SHE SUFFERED INJURIES TO HER HEAD, NECK AND OTHER PARTS OF HER BODY. THERE WAS A POLICE REPORT IF NEEDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND ADVISED HER TO CONTACT THE INSURANCE COMPANY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 104,073.

BOUGHT THIS 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR USED WITH 64K MILES IN JANUARY. STARTED USING THE AIR THIS SUMMER AND NOTICED DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR IS SOAKING WET AFTER EACH USE. FOUND ONLINE THAT MULTIPLE PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CONFIRMED THAT MITSUBISHI IS AWARE OF IT AND HAVE PUT TOGETHER A FIX BETWEEN $220-$350 BUT THERE IS NO RE-CALL. I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM IS A FAILED SEAL IN THE A/C UNIT. ALSO, HAD TO HAVE THE EGR SENSOR REPLACED TWICE. CALLED MITSUBISHI AND THEY SAID NOTHING THEY CAN DO BECAUSE THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY. IT RAN $400-$500 EACH TIME AT THE DEALERSHIP. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT AND REAR PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW REGULATORS FAILED UPON ACTIVATION. THE MALFUNCTION CAUSED THE WINDOW GLASS TO RELEASE DOWN INTO THE DOOR PANEL. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON SEPARATE OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTO GLASS SPECIALTY SHOP EACH TIME FOR THE WINDOW REGULATOR REPLACEMENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 97,000.

AFTER DRIVING ON A LONG TRIP, FOUND THE DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR CARPET AND MAT SOAKED WITH WATER. AC DRAIN TUBE IS BLOCKED CAUSING MOLD AND ODOR. THE DRAIN TUBE IS TOO SHORT AND LOCATED INSIDE THE FIREWALL AND NEEDS TO BE LENGTHENED OUT OF THE FIREWALL (PER MITSUBISHI TSB-11-55-003). THE FLOORING CONTINUES TO BE SOAKED WITH WATER EVEN WHEN THE AC IS NOT IN OPERATION. THIS IS AN UNSAFE CONDITION DUE TO THE STEPPING ON THE WET FLOOR MAT AND CAUSING THE BREAK PEDAL AND GAS PEDAL TO BECOME WET, CAUSING YOUR FOOT TO SLIP OFF THE PEDALS WHEN WET. NOT TO MENTION THE BREATHING IN THE MOLD CAUSED BY THE WETNESS. *TR

DRIVERS SIDE HAS WET FLOOR MATS, AS AC IS BACKED UP CAUSING MILDEW AND AN UNPLEASANT ODOR. THE WHOLE FLOOR IS WET, STRETCHING BACK TO THE PASSENGERS SIDE. DEALER SAYS THEY WILL DRILL A HOLE AND BLOW OUT AC, BUT NOT GUARANTEE A PERMANENT FIX. THIS IS UNSAFE BECAUSE THE STEPPING ON WET FLOOR MATS MAKE THE BREAK AND GAS PEDALS WET. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE CONTACT STATED THE OUTSIDE DOOR HANDLES WERE BROKEN ON EACH DOOR. THE CONTACT REPLACED ALL FOUR DOOR HANDLES AND THE REPLACEMENT PLACTIC HANDLES HAVE ALSO BROKEN DUE TO THE HEAT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 122,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS UNRESPONSIVE WHEN SHIFTED INTO DRIVE AND THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE. IN ADDITION, THE NEUTRAL INDICATOR WOULD ILLUMINATE ERRONEOUSLY WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS SHIFTED INTO DRIVE. THE VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 08V139000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: IGNITION SWITCH). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THE CONTACT WAS TOLD THAT THE WARRANTY ON THE REPAIR HAD ENDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 142,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 142,700.

BLOWN ENGINE ON A WELL MAINTAINED, SINGLE OWNER 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR WITH UNDER 70,000 MILES. AT 55MPH AND WITHOUT ANY PRIOR WARNING (E.G. NO WARNING LIGHTS ON DASH OR CHANGES IN DASHBOARD GAUGES), THE CAR MADE AN EXTREMELY LOUD NOISE (ALMOST HIGH REVVING LIKE), BECAME DIFFICULT TO STEER AND RAPIDLY WAS LOSING POWER. THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON FOLLOWED BY THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" AND WHILE THE CAR WOULD TURN OVER AND START THE NOISE BECAME LOUDER AND THE CAR WOULD STALL OUT. AFTER BEING TOWED TO THE GARAGE, THE CAR WOULD NOT START AT ALL AND I WAS INFORMED THAT THE ENGINE WAS BLOWN. MY MECHANIC ALSO NOTICED THAT MY DRIVER SIDE FLOOR MAT WAS SOAKED WHICH I HAD ACTUALLY NOTICED 2 WEEKS PRIOR WHEN WAS CLEANING MY CAR BUT HAD THOUGHT THAT I HAD ACCIDENTALLY GOTTEN IT WET DURING THE WASHING PROCESS. GIVEN THAT WE HAVE HAD NO RAIN SINCE THEN NOR HAD I WASHED THE CAR SINCE 2 WEEKS PRIOR, IT WAS CLEAR THAT THIS WAS NOT AN ISSUE OF GETTING IT WET. MY MECHANIC THEN SAID THAT OF THE 6 2004/2005 ENDEAVORS THAT HE HAS REPAIRED IN THE PAST YEAR, HE HAD SEEN THE SAME ISSUE AND WHILE SOME RESOLVED WITH THE UNBLOCKING OF SOME LINE THAT HAD TO DO WITH THE AC HE ALSO NOTED THAT THE OTHERS REQUIRED A MUCH MORE EXTENSIVE AND COSTLY REPAIR DUE TO THE HEATING ELEMENT WHICH COULD CAUSE THE ENGINE ISSUE. HE ALSO NOTED THAT EACH OF THE ENDEAVORS WITH THE SOAKED DRIVER SIDE MAT ISSUE HAD ALSO LOST THEIR RADIOS. IRONICALLY MY RADIO HAD JUST GONE OUT THE WEEK PRIOR (IT COMES ON AS IF IT IS WORKING BU

MY 2004 ENDEAVOR HAS HAD WATER LEAKING ON DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT FLOOR. BASED ON THE VOLUME OF COMPLAINTS IN THIS FORUM AND OTHERS, I WOULD SUGGEST THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED AND COVERED AS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. IF IT IS NOT RECALLED, PERHAPS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IS IN ORDER. *TR

1.) THE DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR IN BOTH THE FRONT AND BACK ARE SOAKING WET. THE WATER IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE CAR. MY RESEARCH INDICATES THIS IS CAUSED BY THE AIR CONDITIONER LEAKING INTO THE CAR DUE TO A BLOCKAGE. 2.) I AM HAVING TO REPLACE ANOTHER PLASTIC DOOR HANDLE WHICH HAS COME OFF WITHIN THE PAST THREE MONTHS. THESE PLASTIC HANDLES ARE CHEAP AND CREATE A DANGER AS INGRESS INTO THE CAR IS HAMPERED. DOOR HANDLES SHOULD BE METAL AND SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO COME OFF! *TR

WATER IS LEAKING ONTO THE DRIVERSIDE FRONT FLOOR EVERYTIME THE AIR CONDITIONING RUNS. MOLD IS GROWING AND THE ODOR IS HORRIBLE. I MUST HAVE READ AT LEAST 300 COMPLAINTS OF THIS ONLINE BY OTHER OWNERS OF A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR, AND IT IS WITHOUT A QUESTION, A DESIGN FLAW AND MITSUBISHI WILL NOT ADMITT TO THIS. RATHER, THEY ARE ASKING FOR MORE THAN $1200 TO FIX IT. THIS PROBLEM IS MORE THAN A MAJOR INCONVENIENCE, IT IS A HEALTH HAZARD ALLOWING PEOPLE TO INHALE MOLD WHILE DRIVING, NOT MENTIONING THE OTHER PROBLEMS THAT THE WATER IS PROBABLY CAUSING, SUCH AS RUST, AND POTENTIAL ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. MITSUBISHI SHOULD BE FORCED TO FIX THIS FREE OF CHARGE, SINCE LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF ENDEAVOR OWNERS ARE REPORTING THE VERY SAME PROBLEM WITH WATER ON THEIR DRIVER-SIDE FLOORS. PLEASE CONTACT ME AT [XXX]IF ANYONE HAS THIS PROBLEM, AS WELL AS HOW WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO ALL GET TOGETHER TO FORCE MITSUBISHI TO TAKE ACTION. THANK YOU. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

IT LOOKS LIKE THAT THE MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR HAS DESIGN DEFECTS WHERE THE A/C WATER LEAKS INSIDE THE CAR. I STARTED TO NOTICE WATER UNDER DRIVER AND REAR SEATS. I THOUGHT THAT THIS IS DUE TO RAIN BUT WHEN I TOOK IT FOR REPAIR THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THIS IS DUE TO THE A/C AND THE WATER IS NOT DRAINING OUT INSTEAD IT IS DRAINING INSIDE. I ALSO WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP HERE IN JACKSONVILLE, FL AND THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT THIS IS A KNOW PROBLEM AND HAPPENS WITH THIS MODEL. THEY TOLD ME THAT I HAVE TO EITHER REPLACE THE COMPRESSOR FOR $800 OR THEY CAN CLEAN AND DO SOMETHING THAT WILL TEMPORARILY FIX THE PROBLEM COSTING $189. THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT THERE IS NO RECALL EVEN THOUGH THEY KNOW THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT THIS PROBLEM WILL NOT HAPPEN EVEN IF I REPLACE THE COMPRESSOR. WHICH IS INSANE!!! SEARCHING THE INTERNET REVILED THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. SO FAR I DRAINED MORE THAN 3 GALLONS OF WATER FROM UNDER THE DRIVER AND REAR PASSENGER SEATS. I CANNOT USE A/C IN HOT FLORIDA WEATHER. SO MUCH WATER INSIDE THE CAR CAN ALSO CAUSE SHORT CIRCUIT EVEN FIRE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WHICH MITSUBISHI SHOULD RECALL AND FIX. *TR

THERE IS WATER ON THE DRIVER SIDE FLOOR UNDERNEATH THE CARPET. THE AC HAS NOT BEEN ON AND STILL WE HAD WATER ON THE DRIVER SIDE WHEN IT RAINED ALITTLE LAST NIGHT. I SEE ALOT OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND THERE SEEMS TO BE A POOR DESIGN. *TR

MY VEHICLE IS 2004 ENDEAVOR, PROBLEM FIRST NOTICED EARLY OCT 2010. DRIVER SIDE FLOORBOARD AND REAR PASSENGER FLOORBOARD COMPLETELY SOAKED WITH WATER. WATER IS COMING UNDERNEATH FLOOR BOARD FROM AC DUE TO IMPROPER DRAINAGE. THIS IS A MAJOR HEATH CONCERN THERE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. AFTER RESEARCHING ON THE INTERNET I FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE ENDEAVOR AND PART NEEDED TO REPAIR PROBLEM IS NOT EXPENSIVE BUT LABOR IS SO EXPENSIVE BECAUSE OF DIFFICULTY IN GETTING TO PROBLEM AREA. THIS IS DEFINITELY A DESIGN PROBLEM AND WE AS CONSUMERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BE OVERCHARGED FOR THE REPAIR, WHICH ACCORDING TO DEALER COST AROUND 1000.00 . THIS IS UNREALISTIC. THEY PRESENT ECONOMY IS BAD ENOUGH WITHOUT BEING RIPPED OUT MY MITSUBISHI. I NEEDED MY CAR TO GET TO WORK BECAUSE THIS IS MY ONLY SOURCE OF TRANSPORTATION. I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO DEAL THIS SOGGY FLOOR, MOLD,MILDEW,BAD SMELL AND NOT TO MENTION HEALTH CONCERNS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. WHILE PARKED, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE FLOOR MAT WAS MOIST. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT WHEN IT RAINED, WATER ENTERED THE VEHICLE AND MOISTURE ACCUMULATED ON ALL OF THE FLOOR MATS AND FLOOR BOARDS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTICS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

THE DRIVERS SIDE FLOORBOARD IS ALWAYS WET. THE DEALER INDICATED IT WILL COST $365 TO FIX. SEEMS THAT INTERNET FORUMS INDICATE THIS IS A DESIGN ISSUE AND NOT SIMPLY A PLUGGED AIR CONDITIONING DRAIN LINE. *TR

AFTER DRIVING MY 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS I HAD A GAS LEAK THAT I THOUGHT WAS STRANGER WHILE FUELING MY SUV . IT TURNED OUT TO FALL UNDER THE RECALL FOR MY SUV. I HAD THIS PROBLEM LONG BEFORE THE RECALL WAS ISSUED .LORD ONLY KNOWS HOW MUCH GAS I LOST AT THE PUMP THAT I WILL NEVER GET BACK... BUT I RECENTLY HAD A PROBLEM WITH MY FRONT ROTORS I HAD A MITSUBISHI DEALER INSPECT MY ENTIRE SUV FOR ANY AND EVERYTHING ELSE THAT COULD BE WRONG..JUST THE OTHER DAY I WENT TO STOP AT A RED SIGNAL AND MY SUV DID BRAKE BUT ONLY FOR A SECOND IT STARTED TO SLIDE FORWARD AS I LOST BRAKING POWER IN MY FRONT BRAKES I HEARD A BIG POP AND A CLANK AS I APPLIED MY BRAKES AND HALFWAY SLID THROUGH THE LIGHT AFTER THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN I DROVE A WAYS DOWN THE ROAD AND WAS HEARING THE CLANK SOUND AND IT FELT AS IF THE FRONT TIRES WERE TRYING TO CATCH ON SOMETHING I THOUGHT IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN THE CALIBERS OR THE BRAKE PADS. I PULLED INTO THE CLOSEST GAS STATION TO SEE WHAT HAD HAPPENED . THE PADS WERE FINE THE TIRES WERE FINE AND EVERYTHING LOOKED OK NO BRAKES FLUID LEAKING THE CALIBERS WERE FINE... I SLOWLY DROVE/COASTED MY SUV TO A FRIEND'S HOME GOING ABOUT FIVE TO TEN MILES AN HOUR. I TOOK OFF THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT TIRE TO SEE IF INDEED IT WAS THE BRAKE PADS OR CALIBERS AS I WAS TAKING OFF THE TIRE I NOTICED THAT THE ROTOR HAD SPLIT IN HALF. LIKE SEPARATING TWO PLATES AT THAT POINT I CALLED A LICENSED MECHANIC AND HE STATED IT SOUND LIKE A DEFECT IN THE ROTORS I'VE HAD THESE

BROKEN REAR CONTROL ARMS ON A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR CAUSED EXTREME FISHTAILING ON EVEN SLIGHT SNOWFALL AND POOR SUSPENSION WHEN MAKING TURNS AND GOING OVER BUMPS MY MECHANIC SAID THAT HE HAS SEEN THIS OFTEN ON MITSUBISHI ENDEAVORS JUST WONDERED IF THIS IS SOMETHING THAT I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE OFTEN NOT SURE WHY THEY BROKE. *TR

I NOTICED WATER DROPPING FROM UNDER THE DRIVERS DASHBOARD OCCASIONALLY AND THOUGHT IT WAS CONDENSATION/SWEATING IN JULY 2010. THIS YEAR ON VACATION I NOTICED THE CARPET WAS FULL OF WATER ON THE DRIVERS SIDE INCLUDING THE REAR FLOORBOARD WITH MILDEW GROWING EVERY WHERE. THIS IS MY WIFE'S VEHICLE , SO I DON'T DRIVE IT VERY OFTEN. SHE HAD BRONCHITIS FOR TWO AND A HALF MONTHS THIS SPRING THAT COULD NOT BE EXPLAINED THAT THREE DIFFERENT KINDS OF ANTIBIOTICS, STEROIDS, AND A NEBULIZER MACHINE COULDN'T MAKE HER BETTER. NOW I KNOW WHAT CAUSED HER PROLONGED ILLNESS, DRIVING HER CAR EVERY DAY WITH MILDEW UNDER THE FLOOR MATS AND IN THE AIR. MY WHOLE FAMILY HAS EITHER ALLERGIES, ASTHMA OR BOTH. AFTER WE RETURNED FROM VACATION I GOOGLED FOR A ANSWER TO FIND WHERE THE CONDENSATION TUBE WAS LOCATED TO CLEAR IT AND POSSIBLY STOP IT FROM LEAKING INSIDE.MUCH TO MY SURPRISE THE INTERNET SEARCH RESULTED WITH A BEVY OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE VERY SAME PROBLEM ! I READ FORUMS, ARTICLES, AND COMPLAINTS WITH THE END RESULT THAT MITSUBISHI WAS CHARGING $1000.00 TO FIX. SINCE THEN THEY ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN ON HOW TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM WITH OUT TAKING THE WHOLE A/C UNIT OUT. THERE IS A TSB REPORT # 09-55-002 ON THE PROBLEM WITH THE FINDINGS THAT INSULATION USED IN THE HOUSING FALLS APART AND CLOGS THE DRAIN INSIDE THE HOUSING.THE DESIGN OF THE A/C CONDENSER INSIDE THE VEHICLE IS ASKING FOR LEAKS AND PROBLEMS. I CAN'T EXPOSE MY FAMILY TO MOLD AND MILDEW EVERY TIME THE A/C IS USED. THE WATER IN THE C

DUE TO A FAULTY A.C. FILTER MATERIAL, THE AIR CONDITION DRAIN DUCT IS OBSTRUCTED. THE FAULTY MATERIAL BREAKS DOWN AND HINDERS THE ABILITY OF THE CONDENSATION TO DRAIN OUTSIDE OF THE SUV. THE WATER HAS NO WHERE TO GO AND LEAKS INTO THE INTERIOR FLOOR BOARD AND SATURATES THE CARPET AND INTERIOR COMPONENTS OF THE CAR. THE WATER ALSO BECOMES TRAPPED IN A POCKET OR AREA OF THE FLOORBOARD AND CANT DRAIN OUTSIDE. THIS PROBLEM RESULTS IN A MOLD DEVELOPING AND CAN OR WILL BE HARMFUL WHEN EXPOSED TO PROLONG PERIODS! WE HAVE HAD THE DRAIN LINE CLEANED OUT ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS, AT OUR OWN EXPENSE AND THE ISSUE KEEPS RECURRING? THE REPAIR SHOP STATES THE DETERIORATED FILTER MATERIAL CONTINUES TO BREAK APART AND BECOME LODGED IN THE DRAIN LINE. MITSUBISHI HAS YET TO HAVE A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE AND THEIR REMEDY IS TO BRING IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A REPAIR CHARGE THAT IS EXPENSIVE, UNAFFORDABLE AND UNREASONABLE! WE ARE HAVING BREATHING DIFFICULTIES DUE TO THE OBNOXIOUS AND POSSIBLY TOXIC MOLD SMELL. WE NEED THE CAR FOR TRANSPORTATION BACK AND FORTH TO OUR JOBS AND HAVE NO CHOICE AS WE NEED TO PAY OUR BILLS! SURELY IF THIS WAS A MINOR REPAIR COST WE WOULD HAVE CORRECTED IT DUE TO THE POSSIBLY HARMFUL NATURE, HOWEVER THE REPAIR COST IS UNAFFORDABLE. CONSIDERING THIS IS A POSSIBLE SAFETY ISSUE, WE WOULD APPRECIATE AND FEEL IT NECESSARY TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE AND HAVE THE MANUFACTURER CORRECT IT. WE ARE AWARE OF THE ECONOMIC HARDSHIP THAT IS EFFECTING EVERYONE AND ARE CONCERNED, HO

NORMAL DAILY USE OF VEHICLE, WENT TO OPEN FRONT DRIVER DOOR AND HANDLE BROKE OFF. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A ROLL OVER CRASH AND NONE OF THE FRONT AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE DRIVER SUFFERED MINOR CONTUSIONS, CUTS ON HIS HANDS, HIS HEAD HIT THE WINDOW AND AS A RESULT HE BECAME UNCONSCIOUS. THE VEHICLE WAS DECLARED DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED HER TO NHTSA. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 116,000.

MY 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR HAS SOME SORT OF PROBLEM THAT SEEMS TO BE THE SAME TO MANY OTHERS. THE FLOORBOARDS ARE SOAKING WET AND ARE CAUSING OUR FEET TO SLIP WHEN PRESSING ON THE BRAKE AND GAS PEDALS. THE CARPET IS CONSTANTLY COVERED IN MOLD BECAUSE OF ALL THE MOISTURE AND THE SMELL IS MISTY AND SOMETIMES UNBEARABLE. MY ENTIRE FAMILY SUFFERS FROM SEVERE ALLERGIES AND THE MOLD JUST MAKES THEM WORSE. I ALSO HAVE A NEWBORN AND THE AIR IN THE CAR IS JUST HORRIBLE TO BREATHE. MY WINDOWS ALSO ARE FULL WITH CONDENSATION IN THE MORNINGS AND IT IS SOMETIMES IMPOSSIBLE TO REMOVE ALL THE WATER FROM MY WINDOWS WHICH CAUSES SOME TROUBLE WHILE I'M DRIVING. I HAVE NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THERE IS NOT A DEALERSHIP NEAR BY AND I ALSO DO NOT HAVE THE FUNDS TO PAY FOR SOMEONE TO FIX IT. *TR

2004 ENDEAVOR, DRIVER SIDE LEAK - WATER FOUND UNDER THE BRAKE AND GAS PEDAL WHEN AIR CONDITIONING IN RUNNING. THE ENTIRE DRIVER SIDE MAT IS SOAKED WITH WATER. LEAVING THE PEDALS SLIPPERY AND CAUSING A MILDEW SMELL IN THE VEHICLE. THE SLIPPERY PEDALS ARE UNSAFE ENOUGH, NOW I AM WORRIED ABOUT THE MILDEW GROWTH IN MY VEHICLE. *TR

2004 ENDEAVOR, DRIVER SIDE COMPARTMENT FILLED WITH WATER. WATER LEAKING INTO CAR FROM BEHIND GAS PEDAL AREA MAKING DRIVING HAZARDOUS WITH WET SLIPPERY GAS AND BRAKE PEDALS. WHEN NO COMPRESSOR IS RUN THERE IS NO WATER, BUT YOU CANNOT GET RID OF HUMIDITY AND INTERNAL WINDOW FOGGING WITHOUT RUNNING THE AC/DEFROST FUNCTION WHICH PUTS MORE WATER ON THE FLOOR. MOLD IS GROWING ACROSS THE FLOORBOARD OF THE VEHICLE FROM REPEATED WATER LEAK. DEALER ADVISED FAULTY WASHER AT HOSE DRAIN CONNECTION, REQUIRING ENTIRE DASH BE REMOVED. $1000 REPAIR FOR A $1.50 DEFECTIVE WASHER IN DASH. ALTERNATE REPAIR RECOMMENDATIONS ONLINE REQUIRE A NEW HOLE BE DRILLED IN FIREWALL TO REPLACE WASHER FROM BACKSIDE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 10V065000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE: STORAGE: TANK ASSEMBLY: FILLER PIPE AND CAP). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THE CONTACT WAS TOLD THE VEHICLE WAS FINE AND DID NOT NEED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. APPROXIMATELY 1 WEEK LATER, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEGAN ILLUMINATING ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE CONTACT WAS TOLD THERE WAS A HOLE WITHIN THE FUEL FILLER PIPE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THE CONTACT WAS TOLD THE FUEL FILLER PIPE WAS SEVERELY CORRODED BUT THE HOLE WAS IN THE FUEL TANK, NOT THE FUEL FILLER PIPE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT NOT UNDER THE RECALL. THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 134,429.

BROKEN REAR CONTROL ARMS ON A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR CAUSED EXTREME FISHTAILING ON EVEN SLIGHT SNOWFALL. OUR MECHANIC SAID THAT HE HAS SEEN THIS OFTEN ON MITSUBISHI ENDEAVORS. *TR

2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. A/C DRAIN FAILS TO PROPERLY DRAIN CAUSING WATER TO DRAIN ONTO THE DRIVERS SIDE FLOOR. THIS ALSO OCCURRED OVER TWO MONTHS DURING WHICH I WASN'T USING THE A/C SO IT MAY ALSO BE RELATED TO RAIN WATER OR OTHER CONDENSATION. MITSUBISHI KNOWS THIS IS A PROBLEM BUT WILL NOT FIX IT. THE DEALER QUOTED ME $900 TO FIX. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD LOCK IN THE PARK POSITION BUT THE INDICATOR WOULD SHOW THAT IT WAS IN THE REVERSE GEAR. THE VEHICLE ALSO ROLLED BACKWARD WHEN NOT LOCKED PROPERLY IN PARK. THE KEY COULD ALSO BE REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT A CABLE IN THE SHIFT COLUMN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL 05V069000 (PARKING BRAKE). THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 99,437.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT INTERIOR DRIVER SIDE FLOORBOARD EXHIBITED AN ACCUMULATION OF TWO GALLONS OF WATER. THE CONTACT VACUUMED THE EXCESSIVE WATER BUT WATER CONTINUED TO ENTER THE VEHICLE. THE PROCESS WAS REPEATED THREE TIMES. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THE FAILURE WAS A COMMON ISSUE IN HIS YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL AND WAS CONTRIBUTED TO THE AIR CONDITIONER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT HAD CONCERNS THAT THE WATER COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE A SHORT IN THE WIRING AND LEAD TO AN ELECTRICAL FIRE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 94,000.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. WHILE HAVING THE TIRES ROTATED AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE SCREWS ON THE AXLE WERE RUSTING. THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE AXLE SCREW WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND INFORMED HIM THAT THIS WAS DUE TO NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ON THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 157,824.

CONSTANT WATER LEAK ONTO MAINLY THE DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR BOARD. IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I AM VACUUMING OUT OVER 1/2 GALLON OF WATER EVERY COUPLE OF DAYS DURING THE SUMMER. I'M GUESSING THIS COULD LEAD TO MOLD AND/OR MILDEW BUILDUP AND CORROSION TO THE FLOORBOARD. WITH ALL I'VE BEEN READING ONLINE, THIS IS A KNOWN MITSUBISHI PROBLEM, BUT APPARENTLY THEY AREN'T WILLING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I ALSO HAVE ISSUES WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER JUST BLOWING HOT AIR AFTER EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE REGARDING THE FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLER PIPE AND CAP (10V065000). THE RECALL NOTICE STATED THAT IT WOULD TAKE AN HOUR AND THIRTY MINUTES TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE REPAIR WOULD TAKE UP TO 6 HOURS TO COMPLETE AND POSSIBLY INTO THE NEXT DAY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER WAS MISINFORMING CUSTOMERS IN THE RECALL NOTICE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 38,684.

THE CONDENSATION FROM THE AC DOES NOT DRAIN OUT OF THE VEHICLE PROPERLY. IT IS A "KNOWN" DESIGN FLAW THAT DOES NOT PROVIDE A DRAIN 'TUBE" BUT THE WATER IS SUPPOSED TO DRAIN OUT A HOLE AND OUT THROUGH THE FRAME BEHIND THE DASHBOARD. THE HOLE CAN BECOME PLUGGED. THE WATER RUNS INTO THE VEHICLE UNDER THE CARPET AN UNDER THE FLOOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE. THE CARPET CAN HAVE STANDING WATER MAKING THE FOOT WET AND SLIPPERY ON THE PEDAL. ALSO THE WATER HAS NOWHERE TO GO. THE WATER WILL THEN EVAPORATE AND RECONDENSE ON THE WINDSHIELD, OBSTRUCTING VIEWS. I CAN NEVER COMPLETELY DRY OUT THE WATER AND I AM WORRIED THAT MOLD IS GROWING IN THE CAR. ALSO THE WATERLOGGED FLOOR STINKS HORRIBLY. I HAVE A YOUNG CHILD WHO COMPLAINS EVERYDAY ABOUT THE SMELL, BUT I WORRY MORE ABOUT THE MOLD AND THE OTHER SAFETY ISSUES I DESCRIBED ABOVE. *TR

BACK TAILGATE WINDOW SWITCH AND BACK TAILGATE DOOR LATCH/SWITCH/HANDLES OF EARLY 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVORS JUST FAIL WITH NO WARNING AND NEITHER CAN BE OPENED WITH OR WITHOUT KEY FOB. AFTER SOME SEARCHING I NOTICED ON THE INTERNET THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. THIS MAKES IT NOT POSSIBLE TO ACCESS THE SPARE TIRE, OR IN CASE OF ACCIDENT THE RESCUE PERSONS CANNOT ACCESS THE CAR FROM THE BACK DOOR OR WINDOW. I UNDERSTAND THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THE EARLY 2004 MODELS. I HAD TO PAY CLOSE TO $400 TO REPAIR THIS. *TR

I OWN A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE BLOWER WENT OUT ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO. I HAD THE BLOWER MOTOR REPLACED ($400.00) IN JANUARY 2010 BY EXPERT TIRE (NO MITSUBISHI DEALER NEARBY). ABOUT 5 MONTHS LATER, THE FAN STOPPED BLOWING AGAIN INTERMITTENTLY. I WOULD HAVE TO TURN THE A/C COMPLETELY OFF FOR A DAY AND THEN IT WOULD START WORKING AGAIN. ALSO, IT IS LEAKING INTO THE DRIVER SIDE FLOORBOARD. NOW, I HAVE A MUSTY SMELL ANYTIME I GET IN THE CAR. THE A/C APPEARS TO BE WORKING FINE NOW, BUT ANYTIME I DRIVE IN THE CAR FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS, IT STOPS WORKING AGAIN. I'VE CALLED MITSUBISHI AND REPORTED THIS SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS, BUT CANNOT GET ANY HELP. THEY JUST TELL ME TO BRING IT IN TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. I DON'T LIVE NEAR A MITSUBISHI DEALER, THEY DON'T OFFER A RENTAL CAR, AND I REALLY DON'T HAVE ANOTHER $400.00 OR MORE TO SPEND ON THIS PROBLEM. FROM WHAT I'VE READ ONLINE, THERE ARE ALOT OF OTHER ENDEAVOR OWNERS WHO HAVE THIS PROBLEM. MITSUBISHI NEEDS TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS PROBLEM AND DO A RECALL. IF THIS MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE PROBLEM, IT'S NOT A FLUKE ACCIDENT. *TR

I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL ON MY 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR, ABOUT THE FUEL FILLER PIPE MIGHT BECOME CORRODED FROM ROAD SALT IN COLD WEATHER. THAT'S FINE ABOUT THE RECALL BUT THE PROBLEM I HAVE IS THE DEALERSHIP IN LYNCHBURG,VA. CLOSED UP AND I WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THIS FROM ANYONE. NOW THE PROBLEM IS THEY SAY I HAVE TO TAKE IT TO BLACKSBURG, CHARLOTTETSVILLE OR SOMEWHERE ELSE, THE PROBLEM WITH THAT IS THESE PLACES ARE ONE HOUR TO TWO HOURS AWAY FROM ME AND I WANT TO KNOW AS A LOYAL CUSTOMER WHO IS GOING TO PAY FOR MY GAS AND TIME TO GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED. THIS IS NOT GOOD CUSTOMER RELATIONS TO CLOSE UP SHOP AND NOT LET THE CONSUMER KNOW WHAT HAS HAPPENED AND WHAT TO DO IN CASES OF A RECALL, THAT MAKES CONSUMERS HIGHLY UPSET AND WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER MITSUBISHI AGAIN. I DON'T HAVE THE TIME OR MONEY TO SPEND IN GAS TO DRIVE TWO HOURS AWAY TO GET A RECALL TAKEN CARE OF. SEEMS LIKE SOME PLACE CLOSE TO ME COULD TAKE CARE OF IT AND THEY CAN BILL THE MITSUBISHI PLACE. THIS PUTTING THE CONSUMER OUT OF THE WAY. AND WHAT WOULD THE CONSUMER DO IF IT WAS SOMETHING MAJOR THAT HAPPENED. THIS IS SO UPSETTING THAT I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE THIS TO MY LOCAL NEWS AND COMPLAIN. *TR
