any second owner warranty issues?
i just recently purchased an 06 mr with 17k on it, and i'm hoping any powertrain issues that surface in the next 43k miles will be under warranty. anybody purchase a used evo under warranty who had powertrain issues that mitsubishi wouldn't warranty because of you being the second owner. i only ask because i don't understand how mitsubishi will know that your car had it's oil changed regularly if you don't have the invoices to show them.

You do not have a 60,000 mile warranty. Mitsubishi will not warranty anything for a second owner regardless of wether of not its within that 60,000 mile time. They will however warranty up to 3 yr. or 30,000 miles wichever comes quicker because they have to honor the manufactuers warranty by law. Thats only if you are stock as most cars that go into dealer modded get blacklisted from warranty work.

You should also check to see if the car was blacklisted before you bought it, hopefully it isnt. GL

Have any of you had trouble with the dealer with just springs and a cat back exhaust installed?? I have a grind on 3rd gear at higher rpm, 4k and above, when under harder acceleration, and was thinking about brininging it in. Its an 04 that I bought a few months ago and it has about 37k on it. I was unaware since I did not push it that hard when I test drove it.

i am the second owner of my ix. Purchased with 16k on it. Just had my first oil change and asked the dealer what my warranty was as a second owner. 5 yr 60 k and 10 year 100,000 also applies. Lucky.........

This is interesting, because everything people are saaying seems to differ.
I called a mitsu dealership and asked specifics of what warranty would rollover to me, the second owner.
The warranty info i was told from the dealership i asked was:
10-year, 100,000 mile powertrain warranty -> does NOT roll over to anyone. Once the original owner sells the car, this warranty is no longer applicable.
5-year, 60,000 mile bumpter-to-bumper warranty -> rolls over from owner to owner

I screwed up the terms in my previous post - said it was 6 years 60000 miles.
