Consumer Description

WE NOTICED A LOT OF WATER ON THE DRIVERS SIDE FLOORBOARD AFTER RECEIVING THE CAR BACK FROM RECEIVING HAIL DAMAGE REPAIR. WE CONTACTED THE AUTO REPAIRMAN ASSUMING THAT THE WATER WAS ASSOCIATED WITH THE REPAIR. WE WERE TOLD THAT IT WAS NOT THAT THE MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR HAS A DESIGN DEFECT WITH THE HEATER CORE AND AC DRAINAGE. A SECOND MECHANICAL OPINION CONFIRMED THIS. WE VACUUMED THE CAR USING A SHOP VAC AND DOCUMENTED 4 INCHES OF WATER REMOVED FROM THE CAR ON TWO SEPERATE VACUUMING SESSIONS. A MEMBER OF THE FAMILY IS ALLERGIC TO MOLD AND HAS FOUND THE RESULTING MOLD TO BE A HEALTH HAZARD. THIS IS THE ONLY MODE OF TRANSPORTATION FOR THE FAMILY AND THE QUOTED COST OF REPAIRS IS IN A RANGE OF $400-$900. THE WET FLOOR PRESENTS A POTENTIAL FOR PHYSICAL HARM AS IT IS EXTREMELY WET. *TR
