1997 Mitsubishi Mirage review from North America
"Nothing special"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had to get the brakes replaced twice.
After a rainy day the car has difficulty starting and if I don't let it warm up first, will stall repeatedly when I begin to drive.
The cassette player is broken.
General comments?
The radio gets horrible reception.
It was very inexpensive and I have gotten my money's worth out of it.
It is extremely unsafe. That is why I am getting rid of it now that I have a daughter.
