Had to replace transfer case for a second time.
Propeller shaft recall had my vehicle n 3 times due to this defect now mitsubishi is refusing to fix this obvious defective part.
I am the original owner of a 2004 mitsubishi endeavor with a few complains. Rear window regulator came apart, rear third brake light cracked in half while sitting in the sun, and now it is sitting at the dealership with transmission problem. At 20 MPH the vehicle starts shaking the front end like a bad tire. I replace the tires and the cv shafts with no relieve. Took it to the dealer and no fighting with them. They want to charge me to flush the fluid before the do any warranty work. Because I don't have maintenance records they are not wanting to help even though I have a 10 year, 100,000 mile warranty. I am in a rental waiting another day for a mitsubishi rep to call. Did I mention I am a ase master tech.
My wheels locked up due to a defective transfer case nearly causing an accident. Mitsubishi refuses to take blame.
