The day I bought my EVO it was raining so they told me to bring it back when the weather was nicer and they would detail it. It rained for like 4 more days so I didn't bother.

When I finally got a chance to wash the car I noticed brown spots in the paint! I immediately called and they said to bring it in.

I got a couple big whigs to look at the spots and they confirmed that the spots were indeed in the paint. They then tell me that I will have to wait for some regional manager to come down to take a look at it

They better fix!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

2003 Red Lancer, Paint peeling off of BOTH side skirts, chiping on hood, bumber and almost every door. The paint seems to me coming off very easy

 

i found the same spots on the roof on my thunder grey oz...look like paint as been splattered w/ acid or something and ate down to the metal...do we have any updates on where this is going...bc i would really like to have it fixed...also have the horrible swirl marks from washing...only hand wash with the expensive *** mit...and dry w/ terry clothe...cheap *** paint... paint

2002 yellow oz 18,000 miles with problems just tailgate chips

 

I ment no problems SORRY

 

2002 lancer had my first chip at 2000 miles it was on both the driver door and the front fender near the sideskirt
fyi i took it to mitsu and they gave me some touch up paint for free

 

ive listed some of my problems a few pages ago.. i'm going to write mitsubishi a complaint letter about their paint.. it might not do any good, but i just thought i'd let you guys know. i'm gonna say that various people i've spoken to with lancer have had the same problems that i've had, and i feel they should reconsider their paint/painting method because it seems like cheap paint. any other input? (i'm also doing this as an assignment for one of my classes..i should get an A on it )

 

2002 Lancer Oz Rally:
Paint Chipping On Side Skirts, and Paint Chips all over Hood

 

like paint chips ****ing everywhere
im going to call mitsu tomorrow and slap them around

 

Ok, finally got a chance to clean her up and take a good close look.

02 OZ Lancer, Thunder Grey, no peeling, one small rock chip on hood, right over grill. As rough as the roads are locally, I'm really suprised that is all I have.

Also, I just installed a SRI, and when I removed the stock intake, the little scoop right behind the grill had rubbed the paint off down to bare metal. I need to cover that.

 

mitsu contacted..
they will have 2 regional guys at the dealership on monday and they want me to bring the car in for them to look at.
but this is only for me.
they said that EACH SITUATION is different and would require an inspection. i did let them know that if that were the case they better hire some people to start doing inspections because of the amount of people on here with the problem.
what is the easy way to email this whole thread to them ?? do i just keep clicking email this page.. at the bottom ??? i'd rather send one email than 9 ya know? less annoying that way. i'm printing out these pages right now for those regionals that are going to look at my car on monday. but i'd still like to know how to email just the whole thread once. I don't want to link them to here so they can say it was a broken link. with one e-mail i'll get a return reciept that they recieve the whole document (advice from my lawyer buddies)..
oh by the way i think they ran out of paint for my trunk .. it looks like a fake half *** grey powder coating job if you can picture that.

p.s. if i were you people i would call mitsu customer care on monday and start scheduling for a regional to look at your car, reason being is this:
i doubt regionals have loads of time on there hands to do inspections so if a lot of people have to get inspected these regionals will probably get annoyed and start dealing with this on a larger scale rather than one by one..
so just call up and DEMAND someone higher than your dealership manager looks at your car.. and ONLY take a "no sorry we can't repaint your car" answer FROM a REGIONAL manager.
it literrally took me 15 mins to get this accomplish. if you don't have 15 min to do this, you straight up deserve the paint job you got.. .

peace

 

oh yeah .. one more thing (do i need to edit for this long *** thread??)

I'm sticking to my promise if i don't see someone else doing something about this by 5/5/03 i'm going to repost like i said i would, as much times a day as i can, just to annoyingly bump this thread and till you people get moving. so don't think because i talked to them i'll get it all straighten out for everyone! THIS IS NOT THE CASE. i bought one lancer not 100, get my point?
