I just found out today that East Bay Mitsu in El Cerrito, CA was out of business.
Is there any other dealer in your area out of business?

 

I'm pretty sure Medina Mitsubishi in OH went under recently.

 

The two dealers in North San Diego Co changed to Hyundai and Mazda recently. I think there are only two remaining for the 4-5 million people in the region. The one I bought my GSR from was clearing out the mitsu inventory with minimal haggling at the time.

It has been a good car so far, but I would seriously rethink another product from Mitsubishi due to the next dealer being 30 miles away. At least their service business is popping (no competition).

 

I've seen two Mitsu dealers come and go in Clearwater, FL. Luckily, the Buick dealer in Palm Harbor took the franchise (their service advisers said that they get good business off Mitsu cars) . I've also seen Billy Young Mitsu in Killeen go out of business, but the franchise was picked up by Automax.

 

planet mitsubishi in modesto, CA has been out for almost a year and i believe one in Tracy, CA awhile back been out for a long time

 

I thought Mitsu this year was doing well in sales? I guess dealers falling out doesn't exactly reflect the entire sales of Mitsubishi...

 

Mitsubishi in Van Nys, CA went out of business last year.

 

My friend's dad owns Cerritos Mitsubishi/Isuzu/Suzuki and the Mitsubishi part of it has been gone for about a year and a half.

 

Yeah it's real bad in SoCal. Santa Monica Mitsu closed a couple of years ago and Torrance shortly after. 6 months ago Union Mitsu in West LA closed. I'm in West LA and my closest dealer is now Glendale or LB

 

Part of it is sales, but I also think that motors corp doesn't have as much hold back profit and incentives for the dealers. Hyundai is now the 5th largest automaker in the world. They have a lot to offer and you could make a good bit of money selling those..A lot of dealerships have chosen to change their signs because of the whole business plan.

Maybe the remaining dealers will do well with their mini-monopolies and not pull up tent stakes.

 

In washington state this year alone, Mountain Mitsubishi, Walker's Mitsubishi, and Harbour Pointe Mitsubishi all went outta business.

 

The one at Ontario California closed down a few months ago.

 

damn if this keeps up, we wont have any mitsu dealers at all in the US!

 

Peter Fuller Mitsubishi in MA just bit the dust.

 

Mitsu sales have been in the tank all year. Even though the industry is doing bad, mitsu is close if not on the top for worst sales this year
