When owners complained

A spike years after the car went on sale usually means a part wearing out on schedule across the whole fleet — the kind of pattern no single owner can see from inside their own car.

When it was a used car with 2950 miles. And the car transmission is slipping.

STEERING

I purchased this Automobile from a new car dealer, and right away noticed a steering defect. The service advisor confirmed the defect, and could not repair the problem. I arbitrated this with the manufacturer, but the results were not in my favor and my claim was denied. Although, the arbitrator determined that a manufacturing defect existed, but did not impact the safety use and value of the motor vehicle, even though on the repair order it clearly states that safety issues may exist as a result of the misalignment.

SUSPENSION

The contact owns a 2024 Mitsubishi Mirage G4. The contact stated that while driving at 65 MPH, the vehicle began to fishtail and sway left to right, prompting the contact to dramatically reduce vehicle speed, after which the vehicle briefly veered to the right before the contact was able to regain control. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed a failure with the sway bar, resulting in a negative caster. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who was unable to confirm the diagnosis but informed the contact that an alignment was completed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The failure mileage was 10,000.
