Front right tire magically deflates. (from first day). it happens 4-5 times a year.
Sunroof rattles on every bump @10000.
Vent/AC/heater fan motor rumbles like no other @40000.
Driver side door handle breaks @45000.
Speed censor in transmission shorts out @52000.
E/G valve clogged @55000.
Definitely should have gotten the extended warranty.
While I agree with your issues about this car, I have to take exception to your comment that this a typical American car. This is a Mitsubishi, designed and built (based on the Galant) -- IE this is a Japanese car! If you ever looked under the hood you would have seen the very large Mitsubishi Diamond insignia. So when you say that you would not buy another car from this manufacturer I hope that you realize that means a Mitsubishi. I owned two Mitsubishis and would never own another typical Japanese car.
