The airconditioner compressor blew a pressure valve because one of the valves stuck. This car is a 2001 mistubishi Mirage is only 4 years old with 67,000 miles on it, and the air conditioning is only used for half the year as I live in the midwest. I have been told that it will cost between $1,200 and $1,600 dollars, which is about half of the trade-in value. I called Mitsubishi and they told me there is nothing they can do about it because it is out of warranty. I have a feeling I am not the only customer who has had this problem.
