No known issues so far, I thought I had a stretched timing chain because I can hear a sort of ratcheting noise when decelerating but mechanic says its fine, spark plugs to be changed soon just because I feel like I should, but yeah I'm very surprised and glad that the car has ran like a champ, considering I've been rear ended twice, daily my car and have driven hot temps and snow, I would even say to myself "this is one tuff little car" maybe I'm just one of the fortunate ones to get a good car. I wasn't an original mitsu fan but now I'm even considering getting an outlander sport.

Im at 59k on my 09. oil change every 4-5k. lets see where to start..... stretched timing chain replaced at 44k, have had both interior pillar panels over the airbags in the back just fall off. the clips failed somehow. had an issue with the car starting below 20 degrees F that the dealer still cant figure out. switched out the factory head unit at 35k because mine made a droning sound when using the auxilary input with the car parked or not. dealer told me the warranty doesnt cover the stereo, everything else has been covered by warranty thank god. I love my car and i will not be getting rid of it anytime soon or have any regrets. But damn 30k plus $, i expected more craftmanship. My car is completely stock, i dont race it around or beat it up at all really (and why wuld i its my baby). maybe i just got a lemon i dunno

Purchased in May 2009 with 17 miles. At 41000 miles right now. Only weekend miles though, I never drive it during the week. I don't beat on it but I do drive it the way it's meant to be driven.
No real problems, had passenger side ABS sensor fail right at 37k miles, outside of bumper to bumper warranty but my extended warranty took care of it. Bone stock.

Had my 2009 ralliart since Sept 2008 with 2 miles. At 34000 miles now. Had an SST failure at I think it was close to or around 20000 miles (posted on the forums), where it started skipping gears both manually and auto. Had to drive Manual to the dealership due to the delay in shifting in auto. Spirited driving occasionally and don't beat my car at all. Never tracked either. Will have one more check-up with the transmission and timing chain before doing the X-Swap.

She was sitting on a lot in the middle of Ontario and was the last one I could find in Canada with no miles on it. It had around 300 km's when I bought it, and had never been owned. Not a single problem thus far and it looks and runs like new (it is new...kinda). I got an amazing deal and everything just worked out.
