Exclamation Mitsubishi's way of taking your money and giving you the finger!!! :read:

I know this topic has been beaten to death but Mitsubishi refuses to replace/repair my peeling and fading Brembo brakes and rear spoiler.

The way they've handeled this matter honestly makes me strongly discourage anyone from ever buying an Evo ...Mitsubishi does not back there product and it sucks for us.

The car itself it great but when it comes to the dealership your on your own, no help from them.

Can anyone tell me whats the next step? Ive called Mitsubshi and ive talked to Service managers and nothing...Ive even talked to a Case Manager about this w/ corporate......and still nothing.

Are there any Mitsu Reps out there that can help? or is this Mitsubishi's way of taking our money and giving us the finger?

Welcome to the 100,000 mile warrenty scam!!!!!!

I suggest investing in some KY Jelly on your next visit. It makes things much easier.

I dont know how long Mits can operate in the black.

Maybe offer a 200,000 mile warrenty?????

lol, they be offering 1,000,000,000 warranties soon, but voiding them as soon as you install a harmful air freshener from the mirror. mitsu's suck ***** as far as quality goes, the only evo's do good is go fast, handle and brake well. thats it

Just curious ... what reason are they giving you for denying the warranty coverage on those items?

I thought the spoiler issue was well known to the point of there even being a TSB or some other documentation from Mitsu as well as a production change at some point to address it???

is your brake paint peeling or turning black? after lots of track days they turn brownish black. Mine are a nice brown color now. I figured they couldnt help changing color due to all teh heat.
