Hey guys,

I bought my brand new evo 9 mr on saturday and today I came across my first problem. In the passenger side of the car under the glove compartment liquid started gushing out like crazy, I went to investigate and saw that it looks like a anti freeze pipe poped off...im collecting all the anti freeze in cups and bottles...my carpet is all wet from this **** and I dont know how the hell to fix it...can anyone help me put this pipe back so it could stop leakin out all the anti freeze and I could stop being pissed off....btw...wtf would cause this because I wasnt doing anything...err..wrong

 

Call the dealer and have it towed. If it is brand new I wouldn't touch it, make them do it.

 

defect my frend... bring it back to since you just got your car... but yea, sorry that happened to ya

 

could it be from the a/c?

 

its not water from the a/c...its antifreeze leakin from there

 

Major Weak Sauce!!! take the poor EVO to the Local Mistu. Dealership ASAP

 

Tell those fcktards that sold you the car to take care of this. I hate it when this kinda **** happens to us.

 

sounds like coolant leaking from the heater core. tow to dealer. also request to have carpet replaced.

 

Hope everything works out, yeah they need to give you new carpets.

 

ya...they told me to drive up there...the person who sold it to me is out for the day. Should I drive up there or demand that they have it towed up there?...also, thanks for the advice...ill demand new carpet

 

tow it do not drive it

 

They really need to come pick it up, you're leaking coolant... Make sure that you tell them that they need to send a flatbed (AWD), and then I would ask them first to replace the carpet, they might not be as receptive if you "demand" something.

Good luck and let us know how it turns out.

 

The person who told you to drive it should be fired. You could crack the block on the way, then they'd be responsible for a whole new car basically.

This coolant could be related to the 05 recall where the coolant line would burst, but I've never heard of it leaking into the cabin. Regardless, THEY should pick it up. Didn't you get a Mitsubishi card with the free towing number on it?

 

ya...im calling the handy dandy tow #...been on the phone for an hour...they dont seem to understant that I wont have the car towed to any other mitsu dealer other than the one I bought it in...which is only 20 miles farther than the nearest (the nearest is full of scumbags). Oh yea...and I dont think its engine coolant....its blue liquid...im pretty sure its anti-freeze for the windshield wipers and its leaking at the top right side under the glove compartment....man this sucks hard...ill keep you guys updated

 

DEFINITELY! take it back to the dealership...SHOW THEM youre pissed...frustrated or they will walk over you...show them your not fuc**ng around and they better fix that...just dont go crazy...
