problems after mitsu had my car

i just got a new clutch and flywheel installed at the mitsu service dept. and now all 3 of my ACD lights are on, my brakes squeek, and something is rattling that sounds like a wrench. on top of all that, the word brembo on my right front caliper has been scrapped off, and my steering wheel is turned to the left...while im driving straight!

thats amazing how these dealships staff... I mean i work in a warehouse and have done 2 clutches on a 2005 and 1 in a 2003 an never had a single issue with the ACD on the 05 and zero issues on my 2003.... All though when i took it to the dealer for my first clutch the reason why i started doing clutches they cut a 4x4" hole in the bell housing destroyed my starter flywheel and t-case.... So now i just do it myself and for others lol....


Edit: btw dont expect mitsubishi corporate to be there for you. I was told at the time of service that my stock replacement clutch would not void my warranty... It did.... and they didnt want to pay for the repairs took months of lawyers and threats to get the items paid for. After that i had to sign a waiver signing my warranty away which didnt mean much considering i never planned to take my car back to the dealer anyway... And to this point i have at 80k miles this all happened at 23k..
