“Wanted one of these since seeing it in its launch at...”

★★☆☆☆

written by on 01/06/2010

Wanted one of these since seeing it in its launch at the CLA game fair 2006. Bought mine Sept last year, its been great, fairly economic averaging 35mpg and I dont drive slow.



However, I am now totally gutted, the head gasket failed and its going to cost me £2500 in repairs, Mitsubishi acknowledge the problem but wont do anything aobut it.



Doing a bit of research on the internet and it appears that this problem is not a case of if it happens but more like when it happens.





I will be getting mine repaired and then get shot of it, so very dissapointed and it should not be allowed. Mitsubishi should be held to account. Also, the guy who had it before me had to have leaf spring replaced, its now got a recall on that as well

We have also got two 06 Mitsubishi Warriors and on one the head gasket, radiator and cambelts have failed and the rear leaf springs are broken,the vehicle is under 50K mileage, fully dealer serviced and maintained, never been used off road or for towing anything. The other one has a failed cambelt and has just had both leaf springs replaced - seems there are dangerous issues with the 06 model. We are currently in communication with Mitsubishi concerning these problems and are still waiting for a resolution to our complaints. We too are now hearing these same faults are occuring on other 06 models but what action can be taken as Mitsubishi are not admitting this?
