2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR Complaints

,am writing regarding a severe safety issue at the [XXX] Mitsubishi location. Over a month ago, I brought my 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor in for an open federal safety recall regarding a fuel leak (NHTSA Recall 10V065000). I was sent away without a safe vehicle while parts were 'ordered.'Five days ago, the new service manager promised a callback the next day. I was ghosted. Today, I attempted to follow up on my parts status, and it appears the service desk has blocked my phone number. I am currently operating a vehicle that actively leaks raw gasoline at the pump in the Milwaukee area. This is a massive corporate liability. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

MY KEY IS STUCK IN THE IGNITION. WE WERE ON VACATION AND ON SAT MAY 23,2020 WHEN WE GOT BACK TO OUR HOTEL THE KEY WOULDN'T RELEASE TO COME OUT OF IGNITION

WHILE DRIVING THE TRANSMISSION STARTED TO SLIP OUT OF GEAR FROM DRIVE TO NETURAL TO DRIVE WHILE BOTH LIGHTS ARE SHOWING THE CAR IS IN THAT GEAR . WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE THE CAR BRAKES ENGAGED AND THE WENT BACK INTO DRIVE ,AND I HAD TO DRIVE HIW AT A VERY LOW SPEED TO MAKE IT HOME.

FUEL FILLER NECK IS DEFECTIVE CAUSING CODE P0442. CAR VIN WAS NEVER PART OF RECALL. I SHOULD GET REIMBURSED FOR THIS REPAIR.

I HAD REPLACED THE WATER PUMPS GETTING READY TO REPLACE IT AGAIN AND WHEN IT WENT OUT THE POWER STEERING MESSED UP I'M ALSO HAVING ISSUES WITH THE TIMING BELT IT WAS REPLACED AT 112,000 MILES AND IT WAS INSPECTED AT 121,000 AND WAS OKAY BUT IT SNAPPED ON ME THE OTHER DAY THE HIGHWAY REPLACING IT FOR THE SECOND TIME NOW AT 188,000+ MILES NOT EVEN 100,000 MILES LATER FROM THE FIRST TIME. THIS ISN'T CHEAP ALSO MY HEATER CORE WENT AGAIN.

CAR WOULD NOT START AFTER PUMPING FUEL IN - TOOK TO MECHANIC; HE SAID BATTERY FINE FEW DAYS LATER, CAR WOULD NOT START AFTER PUMPING FUEL IN - TOOK TO MECHANIC; HE SAID BATTERY BAD. I REPLACED BATTERY. FEW DAYS LATER, CAR WOULD NOT START AFTER PUMPING FUEL IN - TOOK TO MECHANIC; HE SAID NEW BATTERY FINE. SINCE CAR DID NOT START 3 TIMES IN A ROW AFTER PUMPING GAS, AND I NEEDED A JUMP EVERY TIME, I HAD MECHANIC DO A DIAGNOSTIC. HE SAID THE ISSUE WAS TIED TO A RECALL BULLETIN. 10V065000 - FILLER PIPE AND CAP. CALLED MITSUBISHI TO FIX IT BUT THEY SAID MY CAR DOES NOT QUALIFY BECAUSE I AM STATE OF CALIFORNIA. I DO A LOT OF MY DRIVING IN SNOW SO I FEEL MITSUBISHI SHOULD FIX THIS FOR ME. THIS IS A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD SO I NEED TO FIX IT ASAP (PLUS I DON'T WANT TO GET STUCK AT A GAS STATION AGAIN NEEDING A JUMP). I'D LIKE MITSUBISHI TO REIMBURSE ME FOR THIS EXPENSE BECAUSE NOW I HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MITSUBISHI ENDEAVOR. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE NEUTRAL AND DRIVE INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AT THE SAME TIME. AFTER TURNING THE ENGINE OFF AND BACK ON, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT DRIVE FORWARD OR IN REVERSE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE LOCAL DEALER (MITSUBISHI/HYUNDAI IN BRANDON, FL), BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 170,000.

THE CAR HAS BEEN ACCUMULATING FLUID ON THE FLOOR OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE. USURE OF WHERE THE PROBLEM WAS, WE HAVE BEEN ABSORBING THE WATER AND AIRING OUT THE CAR. MOLD HAS ACCUMULATED AS WELL (BLACK MOLD) AND NOW I KNOW WHY I'VE HAD REPEATED RESPIRATORY PROBLEMS, INCLUDING PNEUMONIA THREE TIMES OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS. RUST IS ALSO FORMING DUE TO THE CONSTANT HUMIDITY LEVELS INSIDE THE CAR. THE BRAKE PEDAL SEEMS TO BE RUSTING AS WELL AS THE DRIVER'S SIDE CHAIR FLOOR MOUNT. I CANNOT SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THE ELECTRICAL WIRING, AS IT IS COVERED BY THE PANELS. THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS TIMES THAT DUE TO THE LIQUID ON THE FLOOR OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE, MY FOOT HAS SLIPPED WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE WHICH HAS LED TO POTENTIAL ACCIDENTS. AS I CANNOT SEE THE FLOOR ITSELF (DUE TO THE CARPETING), I DON'T KNOW IF THAT IS RUSTING OUT AS WELL. I HAVE NOT TAKEN IT TO A DEALER YET, SINCE I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS... I THOUGHT THAT MAYBE RAIN WAS GETTING INTO THE CAR SOMEHOW. WELL, SINCE IT HASN'T RAINED IN OVER ONE WEEK, AND THE PUDDLE IN THE CAR WAS WORSE THAN EVER BEFORE, I SUSPECTED THE A/C SYSTEM. I WENT ONLINE AND HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS AND YET THERE IS NO RECALL? I AM APPALLED THAT THIS SITUATION HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED? FUNGAL RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS CAN LEAD TO DEATH, ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE WHO ARE VULNERABLE. SLIPPERY BRAKE PEDALS, RUSTING FLOOR BOARDS AND RUSTING SEAT FLOOR ANCHORS, POTENTIAL FOR ELECTRICAL SHORTS AND/OR FIRES ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE. THE COMPANY HAS APPARENTLY NOT TAKEN RESPONSIBILITY FOR THESE ISSUES. PERHAPS IT WILL TAKE A DEATH FOR A RECALL? I WOULD LIKE TO EMPHASIZE THAT NO MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO DEFINITIVELY TELL US WHERE THIS LEAK WAS COMING FROM, NOR WERE WE ABLE TO TELL... UNTIL NOW. IT HAS BEEN TWO YEARS. THIS CAR HAS NO RESELL VALUE AND SHOULD NOT BE SOLD DUE TO THE POTENTIAL FOR SERIOUS HARM. THIS MATTER IS LONG OVERDUE!

THE OUT STANDING RECALL I HAD COMPLETED 03/15/2011 AT DEALER NO 15102 ..I CALLED MITSUBISHI INC IN CALIFORNIA TO FIX AND REMOVE THIS RECALL FROM THEIR DATA WHICH IT REFLECTS EXACTLY ON YOUR DATA THEY INFORMED ME THAT THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE OUTSTANDING AND IT'S BEEN A WEEK SINCE I REPORTED IT TO THEM. I NEED THEM TO REMOVE IT IMMEDIATELY EARLY MONDAY AND EMAIL ME AT [XXX] OR CALL ME AT [XXX] ATTACHED IS A PROOF THE RECALL COMPLETION TOP SECOND PAGE INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I HAVE TALKED TO MITSUBISHI NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE AUGUST 2016. THEY KEEP PASSING THE BUCK OR CASE MANAGER IS ON VACATION. I'VE BEEN USING A HOSE AND FUNNEL TO FUEL MY CAR BECAUSE THE FILL TUBE HAS RUSTED OUT. THIS AND 4 MORE RECALLS ON THIS CAR PUTS ME IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT MITSUBISHI IS AWARE OF. I AM TIRED OF GETTING THE RUN AROUND.
