Bumper to bumper 3yr/36,000k powertrain 5yr/60,000k. Why did mitsu cut back on the warranty ?


Lancer Evolution Warranty

Lancer Evolution is covered by a bumper-to-bumper, New Vehicle Limited Warranty of 36 months or 36,000 miles (whichever comes first). The restraints system and the highly technical powertrain are covered by a 5-year or 60,000 miles Powertrain Limited Warranty, an Anti-Corrosion Perforation Limited Warranty for 7-years or 100,000 miles and a generous 5-year, unlimited miles timeframe for roadside assistance. All warranties are transferable to subsequent owners; coverage time begins on the original in-service date (does not start over with resale.)

 

That is kind of weird...they've been touting their 100k warranty like it's the greatest thing since the internal combustion engine.

makes me a sad panda sometimes.

 

well i have a 10 year 100k mile warnty on my 05 evo dont get it strage

 

That is weak.. kinda shows you how long, on average, its going to last before they have to start doing warranty work on it.

They must not have a lot of faith in the engine and tranny to want to cut back the warranty.

They need to back all there cars up 100%... none of this excluding B.S.

Oh, it's high performance and.. yada, yada,yada..

OK well since it is high performance then make the parts strong enough to withstand 100,000mi.

 

I think its the transmission they are worried about

 

The warranty is like pulling teeth anyways with .

 

SO SAD


but i am still liking X>>>>>>>>>>>>>IX,-7,6,5,4,3,0?

 

so this is explain, the mitshubishi doing better.

 

well honda only gives u a 40k mile warranty....kinda weird since their stuff lasts for like 300,000miles......so who knows

 

you got 100k mile warranty when the car maker have hard time.
as soon as they see the light end of the tunnel, the great warranty is gone.

 

mitsu offers a warranty?

 

sorry but i i buy a evo ten i keep it like 3-4yrs like every car i did anyway alway somthing new to try

 

I think that warranty is for the evo x only look at the warranty for the 2008 Outlander

Its kind of lame, but anti-corrosion is still 7yr/100k mi. I'm guessing this has something to do with awesome people like my old friend who torched his clutch launching and powershifting after 6k miles and had it replaced under warranty. Sometimes theres a reason mitsu is a pain in the ***

 

i plan on getting rid of my X after 3 years and 58,000 miles so that works out for me.
