THE BRAKE PADS, L/R ROTORS, L/R CALIPER HAVE BEEN REPLACED THREE TIMES ON THIS CAR. I HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING TO THE DEALER, OCEAN MITUBISHI, ABOUT THE BRAKE SYSTEM ON THIS CAR FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS. THEY HAVE CONTINUALLY IGNORED MY COMPLAINTS AND SAID THAT IT WAS NOT UNUSUAL TO HAVE THESE PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES. I HAVE OWNED MANY OTHER CARS AND HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THE BRAKE PROBLEMS THAT I HAVE HAD WITH THIS DIAMANTE. WHEN I FIRST HEARD ABOUT THE PROBLEMS THAT MITUBISHI HAS HAD IN JAPAN, I EMAILED THE DEALER, WHO SAID THEY WERE UNAWARE OF THE PROBLEMS. I EMAILED THE ARTICLES FROM THE NEWSPAPER AND CALLED THEM TO FOLLOW UP. AT THAT TIME THEY ACKNOWLEDGED PROBLEMS WITH THE DIAMANT BRAL
