What owners report
I PURCHASED MY 2002 MITSUBISHI LANCER BRAND NEW. FROM DAY 1, I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION. IT SLIPS AND IT REVVS REALLY HIGH AND CAUSES MY CAR TO LUNGE FORWARD. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN MANY, MANY TIMES TO BE FIXED. AS I AM WRITING THIS, MY CAR IS IN THE SHOP FOR THE TRANSMISSION. THIS IS A BRAND NEW CAR, I SHOULD BE DRIVING IT AND ENJOYING IT, NOT CONSTANTLY GOING WITHOUT MY CAR BECAUSE IT'S ALWAYS IN THE SHOP. I TOLD THEM, THAT I WANTED A NEW TRANSMISSION, OR A NEW CAR. I WAS TOLD THAT IT DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY. WHAT DO I DO? I PAID FOR A DEFECTIVE CAR AND NO ONE WILL FIX THE PROBLEM. I AM EXTREMELY UNHAPPY WITH MITSUBISHI VEHICLES RIGHT NOW. I WAS THINKING ABOUT BUYING A
THE VEHICLE POWER STEERING BELT POPPED AND THE CAR HAS 7000 TO 1000 IN DAMAGE AND I'VE ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR SIX MONTHS AND NOT EVEN 12000 MILES. THIS CAR IS COSTING ME 18000 ON TOP OF THAT THE COST OF DAMAGE TO GET IT BACK ON THE ROAD. THE DEALER IS NOT TRYING TO TAKE ANY BLAME FOR THIS MISHAP, AND I THINK THEY ARE COVERING THEIR TRACKS BECAUSE IT TAKES THEM A LONG TIME TO GET BACK TO ME WHEN THEY DO RETURN MY CALLS. *JB
