BAD SERIVCE/DOESN'T STAND BEHIND WARRANTY/DO NOT BUY It started with me bringing in my outlander for its oil change and to take a look at a noise when you turn either way, it was a grinding, ticking clun It started with me bringing in my outlander for its oil change and to take a look at a noise when you turn either way, it was a grinding, ticking clunky noise. The dealership changed the oil and advised it was ice buildup after having the truck for approximately 6 hours. I was upset when I picked up as it took so long and I got the feeling they were shrugging me off. I voiced my concern then that it couldn’t be ice or snow as it was happening prior to any snow. Their response was the advisor says it was ice, and shrugged. As soon as I left the parking lot the noise happened again. When I got home still upset I called the service manager to complain that I wasn’t being taken seriously and that it wasn’t ice buildup. The manager advised to bring it back in when I can. I explained my concern being out of town and I have to request time off to bring it in. He said to call when I could take time off again. I booked a second appointment which I dropped off at 930 am and then had a friend pick me up. I had to call around 2 pm to inquire what was happening. I received a call back at 230 advising they couldn’t replicate the noise. I was really upset that it took 6 hours for that call and that they didn’t ask me to come with them for the test drive or allow me to drive so I could replicate it as it happens all the time when you turn and accelerate from a stop. I voiced my concern again, being very disappointed it took so long, to not being taken seriously, to knowing something is wrong and I was concerned not only with the item not being found but our safety… I then wondered did they drive it or just get in and turn the wheels. I did not receive a call from the service manager or anyone else after venting to the advisor giving my keys back on that second visit. I feel they didn’t care or wouldn’t listen to my concerns and I was really starting to wonder is it because I’m a woman, or why are they not listening to me and taking me seriously. Every time you stop, turn the wheel and accelerate this sound happens. After this appointment I started doing research on what could be wrong, I made a phone call to a GM dealership, as I have a 2005 Pontiac Wave that they deal with and spoke with a mechanic there who advised it sounded like my CV joint or CV boot and/or possibly my axel. He said when you go back tell them to look at that, and ask them to let you know if they can’t replicate the sound for you to take them for a drive so they can hear it. Which I advised and at this appointment they were able to find that both front axels were gone, one was leaking and the other had an internal problem. Now one of my biggest issues is not being 100% covered under the warranty and the mechanics not being able to diagnose a problem with the vehicle. When I first brought my truck in, with that complaint that they have on file, it was within the Klms for warranty, however the last one when they finally diagnosed the issue 3,000 klms over. I feel that I had the truck in prior to warranty that it should be fully covered. I’ve had to spend 14hrs of my time to get this diagnosed and that’s just the time I spent sitting around Winnipeg waiting for the dealership to be done looking at it, I’m not including my drive time, the time I had to google situations and call another dealership to get answers on a vehicle that isn’t theirs. That’s not the worst of it though. When I voiced to the service manager, who by the way was great, she offered to get the GM involved. When the GM called that’s when things went south fast. He started off great, apologizing for the frustration but it quickly went bad from there. He advised that I didn’t have warranty and that it wouldn’t be covered. To which I replied I had it in with that complaint prior to warranty end. He said that wasn’t the problem it was ice buildup, basically saying I don’t know what I’m talking about (is it because I’m a woman?). Again I voiced my concern it wasn’t, that it was happening prior to any snow and I was concerned that they hadn’t even looked at it. He replied saying he has pictures and then he quickly got irate saying that if was going to question their integrity that he would have to end this call. AND I thought, WOW, he can question my integrity but I can’t question his mechanics? I asked if they do an inspection at all during oil changed he said no that takes time and money. I thought they did. Isn’t that what they say when they call? He also went on to explain that because I drive on gravel roads and drive thru snow that’s the reason why the axels are broken… First of all I don’t drive thru a ton of snow besides what everyone else does in Manitoba and I don’t drive on gravel roads? Is it because I live outside of Winnipeg he assumes this? I brought up the thought of going to the media as I feel this is wrong to make me pay for any part of this repair as it was under warranty when I brought it in and that I can’t control what his mechanics can’t diagnose something correctly. How many others are out there with this situation? At this point, he basically mocked me by saying, so you’re going to the media to tell them because YOU DON’T have warranty that you think the dealership should cover it?! He also started cutting me off and talking over me. He said in all the years I’ve had the vehicle that I’ve have only spent $50 here for servicing, why is that? I said because of the cost, to which he cut me off and said exactly. The rest of my sentence is, the cost is because I live 45 minutes away and I have to take a day off of work to come in not to mention the time it takes for an oil change any other maintenance I assume would take the entire day. I also get free oil changes for the life I own the vehicle (NO COST). I can’t afford that much loss of income/time to bring it into them. I get the work done in town here, so I can go to work while they work on the truck. We also have had no troubles with our outlander and I absolutely love the truck, it has been great! When I asked to talk to someone else to voice my complaint he said there was no one else and he didn’t know what I expected to get from someone else. I asked for a customer relations number to which he repeatedly said he didn’t have. Towards the end of the call he said he was calling with a solution, but obviously that wasn’t going to happen. When he finally got out that warranty would cover a 3rd, the dealership would cover a 3rd and I’d have to do the other 3rd, $1342 each. I said I disagree and think it should be fully covered. AND put in the aftermarket parts as the total cost is only $878. Less then what the dealership was already offering? I don’t understand why he can’t do that. He put me on speaker phone at some point, I can only assume to either record me or to have someone else listen in. He finally gave me the customer relations phone number to which I said, Thank you and hung up. AND guess what folks MITSUBISHI CANADA does not stand behind their product either!!! DO NOT BUY MITSUBISHI!!!!! More
Horrible Service-Lemons for Sale! Walk Away! I purchased my lemon (RVR) two years ago & for two years I have had trouble starting my car. The battery is being drained by something in that car. My I purchased my lemon (RVR) two years ago & for two years I have had trouble starting my car. The battery is being drained by something in that car. My car has not started at least 60 times since I purchased it. Last year I received a new battery and was told that the car has so much electronics in it that it always has a slow drain on the battery so I must drive the car every day to keep it charged. I drive from Wpg to Selkirk for my job every day, how far do I have to drive?? Also I only have the basics in my car. After several visits to the dealership each time thinking they had solved my problem, first a new battery, then they blamed it on my GPS system which I unplugged, then when that failed they said it was the remote starter, once that didn't pan out they then blamed me. Last week I dealt with Mehdi Moghareh who stated I was not looking after my car (WTH) he stated that I had to start and run my car every single day and I should not use the remote control. Why do I have a command start if I can't use it? It makes no sense! Beware of Mehdi he is a person who talks at you & continues talking over you. When I tried to speak he constantly interrupted me. Mehdi needed to dominate the conversation, I even yelled hey slow down and he cut me off and said I don’t have to put up with you yelling hey to me. He told me several things that shocked me " you can take your business elsewhere". This is not Walmart where you can just return things at which point I said it's not like I purchased a $25 T-shirt versus a $25,000. car. I regret the day I decided to purchase a Mitsubishi you can bet I will be getting rid of it! More

General Manager Mehdi Moghareh is a liar & Hidden Fees I purchased a used vehicle. I was first informed that the advertised price did not include all their hidden fees. I made it clear that this was in dir I purchased a used vehicle. I was first informed that the advertised price did not include all their hidden fees. I made it clear that this was in direct violation of the Manitoba Retail Sales Act; the price was therefore reduced to accommodate their 'hidden fees'. General Manager Mehdi Moghareh then told me that for additional an additional cost, they would flush all the fluids. After I agreed, he said they were only going to flush the ones that needed to be done. I was then told that none of them needed to be done and took my money anyway. I took pictures of the vehicle before it went into the shop to finish the safety inspection. When I brought it home I noticed that the locking lug nuts had been removed and replaced with lug nuts that didn't match the rest. I have pictures before and after clearly showing this. The salesperson was great, but he will get his own review. I do not want to use his name in the same review as his unprofessional and devious of general manager and mechanic. More

We really like the RVR because of the four wheel drive and the fact that it is high off the ground in comparison to a car. All the options that come with the car, the folding side mirrors are awesome. And I must say that when it is -40 out, jumping into a car with heated seats is heavenly! We would like to thank Robert Misa, Les Rubin and Mehdi for making our journey in purchasing our new vehicle painless and so easy! We are very much enjoying our brand new 2016 RVR Mitsubishi! A big THANK YOU to Larry Vickar for hiring great staff! It shows that you hire only the best of the best! Robert rocks, Les is the lean-mean-paper -pushing machine, and Mehdi is marvelous! More

Sleazy Sales Tactics Went to help parents with looking for a new vehicle. Started out friendly and helpful but then came back with a quote $3000 more than discussed. Felt Went to help parents with looking for a new vehicle. Started out friendly and helpful but then came back with a quote $3000 more than discussed. Felt like a rip off and the sales guy wouldn't answer why the price went up, instead he brought the general manager in to use salesman tactics on us. The longer we stayed the sleazier it got. Couldn't get out of there fast enough. Bought a Toyota instead. Avoid vickar Mitsubishi. More
