NHTSA Complaint #11372720 — 2015 MITSUBISHI LANCER

THE AYC/ACD PUMP ON MY VEHICLE STOPPED WORKING. VEHICLE ON HAS 33,000 MILES ON IT. THE FAILURE OF THIS PUMP IS WELL DOCUMENTED ON THE EVOLUTION X PLATFORM. THERE IS CURRENT RECALLS FOR OTHER EVOLUTION X YEARS THAT SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE THE 2015 MODEL. THE FAILURE IS DO IN PART TO CORROSION CAUSED BY THE LOCATION OF THE PUMP AND THE ABILITY FOR WATER, SNOW AND SALT TO GET ON AND INTO THE PUMP. MY CAR IS FROM THE NORTHEAST WHERE SALT IS A COMMON THING IN THE WINTER. I BELIEVE THIS HAS CAUSED THE FAILURE.
