Verify safety recalls before you drive off
Recall fixes are free regardless of warranty status. Ask the seller for proof — or have the dealer pull the VIN history.
On certain passenger vehicles, the right side lower seat belt anchor may separate during a severe vehicle crash — fix: Dealers will replace the front passenger side seat belt and bracket assembly free of charge. The recall began on march 17, 2008. Owners may contact Mitsubishi at 1-800-222-0037.
What to look for: Dim or flickering dash lights at idle, slow window operation, intermittent infotainment glitches, parasitic battery drain (dead battery after a few days parked). (5 owner complaints on this vehicle
· typical repair $850 · failures cluster ~71,500 mi)
On the test drive: Cycle through every electronic accessory during the drive — heated seats, defrosters, climate fan on max, cruise control. Glitches show up under load.
The seller's transparency on these tells you what kind of seller you're dealing with.
