Consumer Description

2008 MITSUBISHI LANCER OIL TRANSMISSION COOLER HAS CORRODED FROM NORMAL USE. THE CAR WAS MAKING A WANING NOISE WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE ALL THE FLUID HAD LEAKED OUT FROM THE TRANSMISSION COOLER DUE TO CORROSION. NO SENSORS OR ANYTHING WENT OFF, ONLY NOTICED UPON INSPECTION OF THE CAR ONCE I ARRIVED HOME. SIMILAR RECALL WAS MADE ON THE 2010 MITSUBISHI GALANT (HTTP://WWW.MITSUBISHISUCKS.COM/CARS/RECALLS/USA/201003.HTML) SO IT IS NO DOUBT THAT THE LANCER MOST LIKELY HAD A SIMILAR ISSUE WITH A SIMILAR PART.
