Get help with questions about Mitsubishi cars
Mitsubishi cars have a problematic reputation, starting with a massive scandal more than a decade ago involving a systematic cover-up of auto defects. This was followed in 2016 by the discovery that mileage data had been faked for some cars.
In addition, as Mitsubishi’s cars are part of an aging product line that face tough competition in the small number of categories in which it offers models. Mitsubishi cars are made almost entirely in Japan, and some observers believe the company will eventually give up on the American market.
The Eclipse, Lancer, Outlander and Galant are the targets of most Mitsubishi car complaints.
