I was traveling on a two lane road in my 2014 Mitsubishi mirage, it had been raining and the roads were still damp. I was driving below the speed limit because I wanted to attempt to get the highest MPG possible on the MPG calculator on the dash. Suddenly, the truck in front of me slammed on breaks. It was at a distance that I should have not been worried about collision, but as soon as I hit the breaks in response, they failed. Everything happened so fast I don't know if my brakes locked up causing me to slide, or if they just did not activate at all. There were no skid marks on the road. I ended up going into oncoming traffic and hitting another vehicle head on. The impact flipped my mirage multiple times and I landed sideways in a ditch. All airbags deployed.

suspension 2 complaints shown
Had an independant alignment done. Found rear out of spec. Took to Mitsubishi about the issue. First alignment check cost me $160. Sheet said that it was out again. Dealership made me come back again to check one more time. Magically this time its "within" spec. So somehow Mitsubishi managed to change alignment numbers on an axle thats not adjustable.. My rear tires have only 15000 miles (20000 kms) and are very worn and beat from this axle. Its so bad you can actually see how much toe the right rear tire has. Unacceptable and this presents a danger to the stability of the vehicle!!! Im from alberta canada but this needs to be shared everywhere possible!!
Rear alignment outside specification, but not adjustable, as spindles are welded to the axle, making shim plate installation impossible. My vehicle showed excess toe-in and excess negative camber, creating tire wear and handling problems. On third visit to dealer, a new axle was installed, but this one is also outside specifications with cross camber in excess of 0.5 degrees, which will cause handling problems. Mitsubishi refuses to honor their warranty and repair this obvious defect. A very large number of mirage owners report the same problems with no solution or help from Mitsubishi. A recall must be issued to replace all defective axles with parts that can be adjusted.

Impossible to reach manufacturer's advertised fuel mileage. No matter the weather, tire pressure, power to accessories, nothing. Absolutely impossible. I bought the car because of the mileage advertised by Mitsubishi, and I rarely get over 30mpg in mixed driving. Vehicle always has synthetic oil changed regularly, and is well maintained. Was advertised as 39mpg city and 41 highway. *tr
