What 2007 Mitsubishi Endeavor owners say
Body & structure
I just bought this vehicle used in May. I noticed that the carpet gets soaked, actually a puddle of water underneath the drivers side feet. The floorboard and carpet get saturated and needs to be vacuumed at least one time a week.the water soaks my shoes and is a distraction while driving.the dealer blew out the ac line and vacuumed the water out, but said they are unable to do anything else with it
My door handles on the driver side and the back seat passager on the driver side door handles just broke off. My car is kept in a garage and when I went to the door to open both doors the handles just broke off. Just recently I saw the same make and model as my car and both handles were broke also. I asked the driver and stated that the door handles just broke off.
Stability & traction control
Have had 3 incidents when driving between 25-45 MPH, hit the brakes because of being in traffic or suddenly stopping to avoid accident; Mitsubishi's brakes don't react (car feels weird or forced) when it has to stop suddenly. One accident because of this. Skidding has also occurred because of suspension or brake problem???? Not sure?
