No partswere available for recall#d17 concerning air bag clock spring. Massey yardley, 772-546-1800.
It has been almost a year since this recall was issued and still there is no remedy. I feel that this is very unreasonable considering the defective airbag could cause serious injury or even death as stated in the recall notice. Please pursue this and help us come to a solution for this as quickly as possible.
I went to a mitsubishi dealer and they said there's no part to do or fix the recall

Brake rotors warp under normal use
My brakes began squealing and grinding at approx 12,500 miles, i took in to the dealer and was told i needed a complete front brake job, because the back brakes were not gripping due to build up "your back brakes are practically new" but need maintenance.after paying $336.00 none of it covered under warranty, 2 weeks later brakes began to grind and squeal again.i was told that it was caused by "bad brake pads". 3 weeks have since passed and i am in the process of trying to get back in the dealer because the brakes are again grinding and sqealing.i was told by a mechanic who answered the phone that"everyone complains about the brakes" .my lease is for 42 months, i hope not to have to be at the dealer for brakes every 2 weeks.i urge you to please investigate this matter and not come to find out later that a major problem exists and my families safety is at risk.thank you.please feel free to contact me.cecilia ortiz

When this problem was first reported in may 1999, i was told i will experience vibrations in this type of vehicle (suv).the problem has persistently gotten worse.i was then told it was the tiresand a balance would correct the vibrations.i have had the wheels balance twice and the vibrations still exist.now i'm being told the chasis bearing have sagged.. Should this type of defect be happening on a 5 month old vehicle?
