“For the last 2 years this vehicle has had rust issues, the whole thing is rusting through. Underneath, bumper, tow hooks, the parts underneath the truck. I was blown off by mitshubishi when I complained. They told me this was my issue to due I lived in maine. Seriously, this truck was taken care of and I have been the only owner, and it's a 2006 and I bought it brand new march of 2007 make it 5 years old! Also the brakes never hold on it, I have just had all of the pads replaced again, rotors, ball joints, control arms, the truck still wont stop and sways and drifts around corners. …”

“Shortly after the first 7000 miles a noise, like metal objects b egan coming from rear of the vehicle, usually during turns. The frequency increased to the point where it was hear almost all turns. Dealer inspected and stated that it was normal fot this vehicle. It sounced like something was loose.”

NHTSA complaint #10192991, filed 2007-06, 7,000 miles

“Medium to extreme front end vibration when applying the brakes on a downhill slope or at highway speeds. Front and left wheel bearings were replaced at around 22,000 miles (unusual) and I think at 31,000 miles they may need to be replaced once more. Very concerned about possibly losing control when this happens. Date of incident is just the latest and worse of about 6 previous incidents since last replacement of wheels bearings. Not sure if there is something else as dealer obviously continues to claim nothing is wrong.”
