Complaint Description: i experienced a problem with the crank pully that when i was driving that the car lost all control of the steering and power, mitsubishi towed my vehicle and repaired the part because it was under warranty, but this same problem occured again in 2001 with my wife and children were in the car and lost control of the steering and could not drive the vehicle, i was told that the vehicle is no longer under warranty and that i would have to pay for the repair when it seems to me that this is not normal to happen that many times to one vehicle even after it was just recently repaired and that it was not even that long of a time that the same problem occurred with the same part that was replaced new by mitubishi.also i believe that this problem should be reported immediately to the manufacturer because loss of steering can cause a fatal accident at any speed in the wrong place where an accident can occur. i was told that there was a recall on another make of the mitsubishi but not on the. *ak .
