I just took my 05' in to the dealership for its 3500 mile check up and I was told that there is a recall on one of the turbo coolant hose. They ordered the replacement part. Its part # MD363256. Just spreading the word, no one wants to roast a turbo.

 

i just called my dealship and they said there are no open recalls for my car..my production date is 12/04. but it's considered an 05 though =/

 

there is a recall for some (approx1500 05 evos). The recall is based on the fire risk due to a sub-par turbo coolant supply hose. There are several threads about this already.

 

I have 2000 miles on my 05 now but at 300 miles that hose decided to go and made a nice mess and scarred the **** outa me.didnt even know there was a recall for it.

 

although there has been a few threads of this already, thanks for the heads up. i ordered mine last week and its suppose to get here tomorrow. i hope nothing happens till then.

 

Is this for all '05's? Is there anyway to tell if your specific 05 has the recall?

 

i'll have to check on this when i call my dealer tomorrow. i just bought my evo, i wonder if its already been addressed.

Just Give Them The Vin# They Should Just Handle It, I Brought Mine In For A Oil Change And The Serv.manager Just Stated Their Is A Recall Let Me See If We Can Take Care Of It For You Today, He Said He Didnt Have The Part But By Friday He Would, Placed The Order Came In And Recall Taken Care Of....

Why does it matter which 05's are affected, if you have an Evo regardless of which model and it is an 05 just take it to the dealer and get the hose changed out, atleast you'll have peace of mind knowing that it has been changed and you're not going to get left stranded on the side of the road.

 

my dealer didn't know there was a recall on 05 evo8. the funny thing is that the service department person drives same black 05 evo8. he didn't know. so i had to call other mitsubishi to confirm that my car is on recall. now they are going to do recall by using computer located in back hidden office instead of main service department office computer??? since they never received the recall letter???
i don't understand why are they doing this. if they never received a letter, then call the mitsu service department headquater to confirm it. it's that simple. why do the work in hidden computer????
it sounds scary. how would they know what parts need to be replaced without receiving the recall letter???
they just gonna act like they did recall without changing parts on my car???
is that what they are going to do???
