What 2010 Mitsubishi Endeavor owners say
Fuel & propulsion system
I bought this car used and found out the 2010-02-25 United States FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE: STORAGE: TANK ASSEMBLY: FILLER PIPE AND CAP is and was in a safety recall when i pump gas the filler tube leaks gas onto the ground so i called a dealership here in Iowa and was told there is no recalls on this vehicle so i sent them the documentation from Mitsubishi was told after they looked it up its already been fixed so they will not do the recall work again was also told once a vehicle is to old they don't have to recall work that is not true if its on the road and licensed they have to do the work.
The fuel filler pipe is leaking from behind the protection plate. I've contacted a local dealer and the Manufacturer and feel that I'm getting the run around as there is a previous recall for this same problem on the 2004 model, while mine is a 2010. I had it inspected prior to contacting Mitsubishi.
Air bags
Tl* the contact owned a 2010 Mitsubishi Endeavor. While the contact's vehicle was stationary, it was rear ended by another vehicle and struck a concrete median. The air bags did not deploy. A police report was filed. The contact's child sustained injuries to the head, which required medical attention. The contact noted that the child's headache was withstanding after medical attention was received. The vehicle was towed to a junk yard and deemed destroyed. The cause of the failure was not determined. The dealer and manufacturer were not made aware of the crash. The failure mileage was 122,000.
SRS warning light is on and Mitsubishi told me they can't repair this since they stopped making the part affected. It needs a new sensor which controls the air bags and seat belt assembly. I was told if in an accident the air bags May not deploy or even accidentally deploy in a no accident scenario. The car is only eight years old and they stopped making the part? This definitely compromises safety!
