Complaint Description: about a week after purchasing the car, it sat for 3 days while i was away on navy business. when i returned, i had to sit in heavy traffic. i noticed the engine temp gauge was full hot. i finally got to a road to let the engine breath, and the gauge didn't go down. i took the car to kelly mitsubishi the next day and told them what happen. i also told them that the heater didn't put out hot air. they replaced the thermostat and everything was fine. no problems since then. .
