and ive been driving it for 2 weeks. and my dumbass went over 2 curbs so far. is the car still okay?

 

should get the alignment checked out

 

^ +1 Is your car going down the road straight? I dunno how hard you hit those curbs, but I hope you didn't bend anything.

Welcome to the family.

 

yea might want to get it checked

 

Welcome to the club, and keep an eye out for the curbs! If the car doesn't FEEL broken, chances are it's fine... but I'd still just the stealership to look at it.

 

Welcome to the family!
You should have it checked just in case.

 

seems to be running fine, but like you guys said, im actually nearing my first thousand miles. should probably hit it over the weekend. so when i go to make an appointment for monday which i think is when im going in for my complimentary checkup. should i mention anything. basically what can i say that wouldnt sound like "hey i was driving and i did this wicked jump onto a curb and saluted it as i drove off" lol. but seriously. any help would be greatly appreciated.


p.s. i only hit those curbs when i was turning into a parking lot. so i wasnt going more than 10 mph or less. and im saying 10 just to throw in a buffer zone.

 

even if something is wrong, its covered under warranty right?

 

ive hit one curb making an illegal u-turn... center divider came out farther than i thought... i guess thats why you dont make u-turns where they say you shouldnt... you are probably fine... but if you are worried just get it checked.

 

thats fine and all im just wondering what i should say to them when i get in. i dont want to void any warranty by being an idiot. or maybe i should say that the car kind of drives a little to the left maybe?

 

Not if they realize you were curb jumping...

You can't just break anything on your car and expect the warranty to cover it. There's a clause in there about "normal usage".

 

aha, but when i got it it had like 200+ miles on it. it seems to run fine, like i said i was just worried. its not like i was speeding and i just hit the damn curb. i was turning into a parking lot from the street. the tire just went over the curb.

 

isnt there a clause about the first 12000k miles. though?

 

im going to lunch now, so i will have another look while im on the road. keep the info coming guys. good stuff to know. thanks

 

I work at a Mitsu dealership, and I don't want to make Mitsu look bad, but if you jump a curb and damage your car, the mechanics *may* laugh at you when you're not around.

Also, more importantly, they won't cover that under warranty. It's the same as asking "if I buy a new car, and the next day I t-bone another car, is that covered under warranty?

Sorry if this sounds kinda brutal, but I don't sugarcoat things
