mitsu deniedmy warranty cause of a airfilter n bov they said water got into my engine because of these mods...anyone smell BS?????

 

Oh god..this is going to be a heated thread. Is your air filter a drop in filter or an open element Cone filter?

 

i was told by a mitsu mechanic that was just recently in a meeting that corporate is voiding a warranty for as much as you just described... people are now going to have to move to litigations to prove thier case in court it seems. Mitsu just pulled the worst move they could ever make

 

How bout some more info. Like what you went in for warrenty work on? If you have an open element air filter, hks rs for example, it is entirely possible for water to get in.

 

its a kn cone filter i sent it in a knockin noise in the motor... i didnt drive through ne puddles

 

Are you sure you're even old enough to own an Evo? You have the spelling and gramatical skills of a 5th grader.

 

ooo my bad i didnt know there was a proper way to type on here u geek

 

are you just a total *** hole? this is why I hate evo m. this topic is about a warranty issue not about grammer.

 

Name calling now huh, make that the intelligence of a 5th grader as well.

Just to let you know, all service departments are different. The owner of the Mitsu dealer I purchased my car from is part owner in an import shop that has advertisements on this very site. They will do all warrenty work unless a 3rd party part you put on directly affects the claimed warrenty work, which is how it should be.

 

or spelling. BByEvo needs help with his warranty situatuion so step up and offer advice or don't post.

 

What possible help could we give him that the other 30+ threads about "supposed" warrenty denied claims don't already offer. Go back, ***** to manager, if that doesn't work, ***** higher or get lawyer.

 

thnx for your input matt n im sorry that you used to get made fun of and now u take it out on evom.....tool

 

It's what I live for!

 

well now that this is being a fist fight now... back to the main issue he asked.... yeah ummm idk why mitsubishi is doing this, you would expect them since they are on the dowside of everythign to really back their cars regardless of mods... i really think the dealer is good for nothing ( and i'm sure many agree )... if i were you i'd be thankful and continue your modding path, i mean the dealer does several things:

1) rips you off for oem parts that aren't even that good... so now you can spend a little mor ehten what they would charge and get a quality part.

2) you can find places to install things very cheap and with quality installation..

3) mitsu should refund the money of a warrenty once its denied... i mean you do have to pay for it, and if yoru not gonna get hte full warrenty why not get back money for the warrenty you haven't used.. ( sorry thats not a main point but just a suggestion )

my conclusion.. your better off without the dealer, they are a bunch of nimrods anyways...

 

stop being an @ss , don't post in here if you aren't going to contribute dumbsh1t

that k&n cone filter isn't going to hydrolock ur motor unless you drive into a river, mitsu is bullsh1t, none of those mods will cause knock in a already rich setting motor
