2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor Complaints

A.C. IS DRAINING INTO THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE CAUSING THE CARPET AND FLOORING ON THE DRIVER SIDE UNDER TO THE DRIVER SEAT TO BECOME SOAKED THROUGH AND WILL NOT DRAIN OUT. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, FOOTWEAR HAVE SLIPPED ON THE BREAK AND GAS PEDALS DUE TO MOISTURE ACCUMULATED ON THE BOTTOM OF THE SHOE. THE SHOE IS NOT ABLE TO DRY AND PROPERLY GRIP THE GAS AND BRAKE PEDALS DUE TO THE ACCUMULATED MOISTURE SOAKED THROUGH THE CARPETING UNDER FOOT. HAVE CONTACTED LOCAL MITSUBISHI DEALERSHIP: THE A.C. ISSUE IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND THEY WILL NOT COVER THE COST OF REPAIR EVEN THOUGH IT IS CAUSING SAFETY ISSUES WITH VEHICLE STOPPING AND ACCELERATING. CONTACTED MITSUBISHI CORPORATE AND RECEIVED THE SAME COMMUNICATION THAT WAS RELAYED BY THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP.

THE AC GETS COLD ON THE DRIVER SIDE BUT THE PASSENGER SIDE ONLY THE HEAT WORKS. YOU CAN CHANGE THE TEMPERATURE BUT NOTHING HAPPENS IT WILL REMAIN THE SAME. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS NO RECALL CONCERN ING THIS ISSUE BUT FROM WHAT I HAVE GATHERED FROM OTHER CUSTOMERS WHO OWN THIS TYPE OF DR THEY ARE HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. THE DEALER CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT IS THE PROBLEM AND I PAID $1,600 FOR AN UNFIXED AC UNIT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. THE CONTACT INQUIRED ABOUT A RECALL AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH THE VIN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND FUEL WAS LEAKING FROM THE VEHICLE WHILE PARKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE CONTACT CALLED A LOCAL DEALER (VALLEY IMPORTS, 402 40TH ST S FARGO, ND 58103), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE UNKNOWN RECALL HAD EXPIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

ORIGINALLY THE LIFTGATE WOULD NOT OPEN ONLY THE GLASS TOP WOULD OPEN. A COMMON ISSUE ACCORDING TO SEVERAL MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR OWNER FORUMS FOR ENDEAVORS FROM 2004 TO 2008. RECENTLY BOTH LIFTGATE AND GLASS WOULD NOT OPEN AT ALL UNLESS I USED THE MANUAL RELEASE LOCATED ON THE INSIDE PART OF THE LIFTGATE. HOWEVER, WHILE DRIVING RECENTLY THE LIFTGATE AND OR GLASS TOP ACTUATED ITSELF CAUSING THE LIFTGATE TO UNLOCK ON ITS OWN AND OPEN. IF IT WERE NOT FOR THE DINGING OF THE DASH INFORMING ME ONE OF MY DOORS WAS OPEN I WOULD HAVE NEVER NOTICED. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED THE CONTENTS OF MY TRUNK TO SPILL OUT ON THE ROAD AND ONLY GOD KNOWS WHAT COULD'VE HAPPENED. MY MECHANIC RECOMMENDED I CHANGE BOTH LATCHES TO BE SAFE ($100 EACH) HOWEVER THIS IS A REOCCURRING PROBLEM SO IT WOULD ONLY BE A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE I'D BE BACK HAVING TO REPLACE THEM AGAIN. I VERIFIED THIS WITH TESTIMONIALS FROM OTHER ENDEAVOR OWNERS VIA MULTIPLE FORUMS AND REPAIR BLOGS....
