Ok so i called mitsu just now about the heat knob that brakes on just about every lancer..He told me it would cost 2k give or take few to fix this problem. So i said f*** that. But im taking it in saturday for him to look at it. I told him it was a technical service bulliton. But i dont know what will happen so its going in on sat and ill find out whats gonna happen. It seems like some people say they fix the problem and others say they wont. My warrenty is over so i think im screwed but i dont know we will see.

 

they should fix it even though your warranty is out.....and 2K for that lol whoever you talked to was stupid.

 

yeah, mines about to go also.

 

wow mitsu guy you talked to has to be stupid as hell, 2 grand for a knob wow, but yea mine is hard as hell to turn so mines about to go out, any quick fix for it out there.???

 

they change out the whole unit... i should go have mine done before it breaks.

 

Yea he told me they had to change out the unit, knob, and some other things. But still i wouldent pay 1k to get it fixed.

 

Wow, that must suck......does it happen on evo's too?

 

Yep!

 

Mine is completely botched and I had it "fixed" like 2 months ago. I can't adjust the temperature at all, which is just super in the weather we have up here. It's stuck at warm so I can't defrost my windshield, I have to do it using wiper fluid.

 

Yea i took off the piece that attaches to the gear and put it on heat but if i move the knob to cold it wont go back. I have to do it manually

 

HAH I have the same problem, it's annoying to turn.

 

If everyone has this problem why dont they make it a recall? Its obvious that they are all suck to start with.

 

It is a recall

 

got the recall number? or something that we non-warranty lancers can use to get this thing fixed?

 

What you can do is call your Dealer and Tell them you want to run a check to see if every open recall has been taken care of on your car.

I just did, and it's all been taken care of.
