Consumer Description

I LEASED A 2001 MITSBUISHI ECLIPSE. WITHIN THE FIRST TWO YEARS OF THE LEASE, I HAVE HAD TO REPLACED ALL FOUR RIMS ON THE CAR. I CONTACTED FAMILY AUTO MITSUBISHI HERE IN INDIANAPOLIS WHERE I LEASED THE CAR AND ASKED THEM TO REPLACE THE RIMS WITH ONES FROM A NEWER MODEL BECAUSE OF THE EXCESSIVE PROBLEMS I HAD. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY WERE NOT FAULTY, THAT THEY WERE DAMAGED BY EXCESSIVE ROAD WEAR. I CONTACTED THE BBB THEY CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP. ALL THEY DID WAS SEND ME A LETTER STATING I SHOULD TAKE THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND SEE WHAT THEY WOULD DO FOR ME. THEY HAD ALREADY STATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE THE RIMS.
