THE DEFROSTER SWITCH DOES NOT SWITCH THE AIR TO DEFROST MY WINDSHIELD. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DEFROST MY WINDOWS IN THE WINTER. WHEN TURNED TO DEFROST IT BLOWS OUT OF THE OTHER AIR VENTS.

FOR OVER A YEAR NOW WATER HAS BEEN LEAKING ONTO MY DRIVER SIDE FLOOR FROM THE A/C. I'VE HAD IT LOOKED AT BY A MECHANIC DUE TO THERE NOT BEING A DEALERSHIP W/N OVER 100 MILE RADIUS OF ME AND IT IS A DESIGN FLAW AND NOT A WARRANTY ISSUE. I'VE CHECKED SEVERAL TSB AND ONLINE MITSUBISHI FORUMS AND THEY ALL STATE THE SAME THING. THERE DON'T APPEAR TO BE ANY RESOLVING SOLUTIONS TO THIS ISSUE EITHER SHORT OF RIPPING APART MY VEHICLE TO POSSIBLY SOLVE THE PROBLEM AND REINSTALL TUBING THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN USED IN THE FIRST PLACE. DEVELOPING HEALTH COMPLICATIONS AND MOLD EXPOSURE DUE TO A DESIGN FLAW IS NOT SOMETHING I'M TRYING TO RISK. NOTHING HAPPENED TO MY VEHICLE...THERE WAS NO DAMAGE OR ANYTHING OF THE SORT. ALL A SUDDEN WATER STARTED POOLING ON THE DRIVER SIDE WHEN EVER THE A/C WOULD RUN.

IN OCTOBER 2010, I BACKED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND HEARD A LOUD NOISE (I WAS WORRIED I HAD HIT SOMETHING). I LOOKED AROUND AND NOTICED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR WINDOW WAS DOWN AND I DID NOT PUT IT DOWN. WHEN I TRIED TO PUT IT BACK UP, IT DIDN'T MOVE. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL MITSUBISHI DEALER AND THEY ADVISED THAT THE WINDOW REGULATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. LUCKILY, I WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. NOW, LESS THAN A YEAR LATER, I WAS DRIVING DOWN A BUSY HIGHWAY, AND HEARD THAT SAME LOUD NOISE. ONCE AGAIN, I THOUGHT I HAD HIT SOMETHING OR SOMETHING HAD HIT ME. I PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO DISCOVER THAT MY DRIVER SIDE REAR WINDOW WAS DOWN. I VISITED MY LOCAL MITSUBISHI DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE WINDOW REGULATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HOWEVER, I AM NOW OUT OF WARRANTY AND AM BEING TOLD IT WILL BE $250 (BEFORE TAXES AND FEES) TO HAVE THIS PART REPLACED. I DO UNDERSTAND THAT PARTS WEAR OUT AND NEED REPLACING BUT I FIND IT FUNNY THAT BOTH SIDES WENT OUT WITHIN ONE YEAR OF EACH OTHER. I ALSO DON'T THINK IT'S SAFE TO HAVE MY CHILDREN IN THE BACK WHERE THE WINDOWS SEEM TO FALL DOWN AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF ANYONE ELSE IS HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND TO FIND OUT IF THERE IS ANY RECALL IN THE WORKS. THANK YOU. *TR
