Consumer Description

THE HEADLIGHTS OF THIS MODEL GET SEVERELY CRACKED TO THE POINT OF RAINWATER ACCUMULATING INSIDE THEM AND BURNING THE LIGHTS. DRIVERS ARE RISKING LOOSING THEIR HEADLIGHTS WHEN THEY NEED THEM MOST - IN A BAD RAINSTORM. MITSUBISHI DOESN'T OFFER HEADLIGHT COVERS AS A SEPARATE PART, SO THE WHOLE ASSEMBLY HAS TO BE CHANGED EVERY FEW YEARS. NO RECALL HAS BEEN DONE EVEN THOUGH THE PROBLEM IS RAMPANT. I HAVEN'T BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT BUT MITSUBISHI HAS LET ALL OF THEIR OUTLANDER'03 CUSTOMERS TO FEND FOR THEMSELVES EVEN THOUGH IT'S SOMETHING THEY ARE BEST EQUIPPED TO FIX. *TR
