yeah its just like saying "i bought a leased computer off of Dell, and I broke the DVD drive by mistake, but then they saw that I modified the computer, and they saw I put more gb's to it and modified the hell out of it" and then i try to bring it back to get fixed....<------.... uh i think this was a ****ty example ,..... but point is they cant fine u for doing something to something that you own.

 

now if you drove through their showroom window like a pic of an evo i saw on here once lol , ne one got that pic to post? the blue evo, ne how unless you like wreck their **** or somthing then theres nothing they can do but stand behind mitsu's policies and say they wont fix your evo because you voided the MIGHTY SACRED WARRANTY thats not worth **** .

 

i simply don't understand this thread,

1) a dealership is going to fine you with what right? they are not the police nor the government so i really can't understand that.
2) the best they can do would be to void your warrenty and thats about it.

3) why would you listen to your "momz" and not to your common sense? you should have known by now not to take a modified car to get warrenty done especially for the clutch that is a wearable item.

4) i know that this is internet board but when you talk like that nobody can understand you which means we can't help you. all that watz and momz and retarts and stuff is really confusing to me.

hope it works out for you

 

Dude, if your car is modified already, bring it to a shop to have the work done, not the dealer. You are only asking for trouble.

I think the dealer thinks you can be fined for no cat which is a state and federal violation. They do not have the authority to fine you themselves. Tell them to **** off. They are talking out their ***. I can't see the fine being 20K for not running a cat. Give me a break.

 

 

my thoughts exactly D

 

Here are my 2cents, I beleive the "dealer" can be fined a heafty sum for working on a car with no cat.

 

Sam, its Gil by the way. Im a NY state Emmissions and safety licensed inspector. In other words I inspect cars. Listen to me. Get your car out of that dealer ASAP. No dealer can fine you for anything, however they can call up DMV and have an inspector come down and they CAN fine you. The dealer themselves cant do anything. If your car does get a summons by a DMV inspector you can tell them that you had your car flatbedded from the racetrack this way, this being that racing is considered off-road so it is not illegal. I believe your car was towed anyway, right? You can say that the clutch failed at the track. At least the only thing you'll loose is the warranty and not get a fine. Its not $20k by the way. Good luck. You should've had the clutch installed by me.

 

Damn I wish I was close you Superz in NY, I'm getting ready to do an ACT in my car and am a little scared.

 

It looks bad, but not because of them.

 

Not that it really matters, but how old is this kid?

 

this thread makes my brain hurt

 

lol. dont know what to tell ya, just get your cat switched and take it to another dealer if you still insist on gettin it fixed by mitsu...

 

I see an awful lot of evo owners going to the dealership with their "momz".

Pretty sad.

 

I have no cat on my EVO and I take it to Mitsubishi dealership here in South Florida all the time to get it serviced. The service rep knows everything I've done to the car and trust me the things I've done, I probably voided my warranty within the 1st month of ownership. But he looks the other way...
The moral of the story... Its all about who you know.
