By the way, three cheers to brookdale mitsu for attempting to take care of this for me. Chris in their parts dept got me replacement parts asap, it their regional manager shot down the recall.
A dealer and/or a manufacturer cannot refuse to perform a recall on a vehicle unless the part to be repaired per the recall is not original equiptment to the car or the car has been given a scraped/salvage/reconstructed title. If it is your original driveshaft yoke and transfer case, they have to do it per Federal guidelines.
