Took my truck back to the dealer on 2/22/01 for engine light that came on. They replaced a leaky fuel cap and engine light went off. Told them when I call for service about the 2nd -3rd shift that was slipping in the transmission. The could not find what I was speaking of the first time. The second time I took it back for the same reason they then said that Mitsubishi had a letter stating that there was a problem with the 2nd - 3rd shift. The called the tech line and no one new what to do with the vehicle. They in turn wanted me to pay for a tranny flush, I refused telling them I had been instructed by a mechanic friend that this is not the problem, so I did not have that done. To boot they wanted me to pay for this (80.00).!! when I called again about my vechicle doing the same thing I told them I did not feel the vehicle was safe to drive because driving a damaged transmission was not good, the told me that I was in no danger. The third time, they instructed me Mitsubishi could do nothing else to help me and I had to pick up the vehicle immediately. So now I am driving a possible damaged transmission and who knows what else will happen. I would like to request and investigation into this, the mechanic at the dealership told me other vehicles(Montero's) have been doing the same thing as well not just mine. I believe this is Mitsubishi's responsiblity to fix this even if it means a new transmission!! if you would like to talk further on this problem please feel free to contact me at the given numbers. Thanks and have a great day. --- concerned consumer
