^^^ I called my local mitsubishi and asked, because i have not got them rotated yet. The guy told me its not covered under the warranty and its gonna cost me 39.99. I could have swore it was covered, is there any proof that it is, im not paying 40bucks for something thats to be done FREE!

man you guys have the worst luck( or i've been lucky) even though i don't get free oil changes etc. they never say a word about any mods i do to the car, hell the parts guy is the one who told me to buy my stuff at RRM. plus on the showroom floor they have displays of underdrive pulleys, AEM cold air intakes, greddy exhausts it's pretty sweet. LOL when i took my car in after i put my exhaust and CAI on i was talking to the parts guy and i could hear them reving the engine, and when they handed me the keys when i was done the mechanic said "nice ride, sounds good too"

NVM.

I just found my diamond care warranty papers, TIRE ROTATION is covered under the warranty - free sheducle maintence - 3years of 45k miles. Why the hell did the guy wanna charge me 40bucks for something ive already paid for FREE under my warranty. Im gonna call them tommorow and give them an earful!

yeah... all that maintance is free. I jsut got my car 2 months ago and I don't know how often you can go in but they told me oil and tire rotaion is free for 3 years. I'll probably do it all myself I want to put better oil then dealer oil in. I want something a little better sense Im a little rough on my cars.

I checked my service schedule book last night. All the oil changes in between the regularly scheduled maint. is free, the rest i have to pay for. One of the items in the 7500 mile service was tire rotation. My rims were filthy from brake dust and trust me, no one removed a tire. They did however, remove my fairly new Bosche wiper blades and put the cheapos back on - nice move guys!

what are you talking about? I never had any warranty work done @ mitsu, ive done it on my own (oil change, filter clean etc.). They have never seen under my hood, the guy was just being an ***, thats all, and I dont appreciate it. I will call them today.

Did you read my 1st post - they bring it on themselves w/ deceptive tactics and general ineptitude. My dealer is pretty cool too - no prob w/ CAI and minor mods and such.

if anyone wants to know if they have free service then pm me the last 8 digits of your vin and i can tell you. free service is every 7500 miles
unless you have an evo than its every 5000. mitsu pays for all the expensive services you pay only the oil changes in between, which is dirt cheap

I won't go back...they checked my brakes, rotated my tires, and checked my strut - all without ever removing a tire. They're magicians over there.

this is on topic, but about my speakers
i went in because my left rear speaker was rattling real bad when i turned the bass up to even 1. so i went in and they pulled it back, didnt take off the speaker grill, but said that one of the brackets was bad, so they ordered new ones.. also they said that the rattling was just because the bass wasnt MEANT to be turned up past 0.
needless to say i thought it was bs and thought maybe a speaker was blown and they just didnt want to replace it.. then one day i was at best buy and saw some 4-way pioneers and i bought them.. 100 dollars for 2 speakers... not too bad i thought... well i go home and install them and as soon as i pulled off the grill i noticed 3 things.
1. the speakers in there were aftermarket (they were crappy pawn shop speakers)
2. the plastic spacer was gone and the speakers were being held in by ONE small screw, so the speakers were bouncing all over the place and the bass was just causing them to jump...sucks cuz they werent blown...
3. the grill bracket wasnt broke at all.. the screw underneath was unscrewed and never screwed back in.

this just basically made me laugh out loud at how ignorent the ppl at this shop actually are. but i just bought a new in-dash dvd player today and it really brought out the sound i was missing in the rear speakers.. i am going to replace the front speakers with the pioneer 4-ways later this week, as well as installing my gamecube in the car, and my subs and amp

not all dealers are bad. you just happen to get one of them that is. we do what ever we can to take care of our customers and there needs. we even cover all the aftermarket stuff we sell.
