Consumer Description

THE PAINT IS CHIPPING ON THE BOTTOM SIDE, OF THE BACK REAR DOORS NEXT TO THE FENDER. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. AS TALKED IN THE FORUMS IN EDMUNDS.COM I HAVE A 2008 MITSUBISHI LANCER EVOLUTION, WITH 3,500 MILES ON IT AND THE PAINT IS COMING OFF THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW, AND MITSUBISHI WONT DO ANYTHING I NEVER DROVE MY CAR IN GRAVEL, I THINK THE DESIGN FLAW HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE AERODYNAMICS OF THE CAR, AND POOR PAINT. *TR
