Wow, getting my NAV unit working has been a saga. First visit they order an antenna. Second visit the antenna didn't help. Third visit they try two different head units.

Turns out that the tech on the second visit installed the GPS antenna (clips on from the underside of the dash) upside down. bwahaha!

The guys a White Bear Lake Mitsu are super-nice and friendly so I'll give them a pass. Six freakin' hours sitting in their lobby for all of this, though. Could you imagine if I had a serious problem?

I'm happy that my clock is no longer stuck at 4:00.

For two hours at a time? Finding someone with a car to drop me off wouldn't be worth my while.

As an aside, do you ever have anything helpful to say? You're mostly a prick from what I can tell.

I hated Kracka when I first joined this forum and came to like him later on. I've read a lot of posts from you and if that's your natural tone then you are going to piss off a lot of people if they don't know you well. I'm definitely looking to make friends in this community so please take my prior comment as an observation and nothing more.

I never leave my car either...

Gotta keep an eye on those squirrely bastards.

Isn't this warranty work? Why couldn't they just keep it for a day or two and work on it straight?

**cmspaz** · 04-14-2011

Because it's Mitsu, plain and simple.

Quite frankly, I'm surprised it's getting warrantied at all, considering it's electrical work and the gauges he's got installed.

^Your dealings with mitsu have been bad I take it?

I thought u meant 6hrs straight as well. Either way I don't have patience for that, i hate waiting 30-40 mins for a damn oil change.

I said "three visits" but if more than one person didn't get it then my apologies for not communicating more clearly.

I also discovered that the AM/FM doesn't work so they undoubtedly didn't plug in the antenna. I'm glad that I don't have a warranty and need to hire people like RS and DB to work on my car. Where do they get the 'mechanics' from dealers? Amazing.

Had a conversion on EvoXforums. Some people were questioning why DB took so long to get to Dave's car. It basically comes down to not hiring anyone with a tool box to work on cars.

Mitsu warranty work is only as bad (or good) as the dealer...glad you found a dealer in MN willing to work with you!

Luther Mitsu in Bloomington isn't all too bad, you just gotta make sure you only deal with the Service Manager, Nick.

I had a regular Service Clerk tell me my oil pressure sender wasn't covered under warranty since I modified my intake. I came back to talk to the Service Manager and I didn't even have to state my case before he had a tech replacing it under warranty.

However, at the same dealer, same day, same person, the opposite side of the coin is that the Manager denied warranty coverage on my cracked spark plug cover. He said they can't be sure someone other than a Mitsu dealer messed with it and broke it. Ghey.

You just like me for my bathing suit body LOL

Just for reference, I took it as you sitting there for 6 hours as well. Basically when reading posts on forums, most people are skimming/reading fast, so if it's not clearly stated.. easy to misinterpret.

I've given up on trying to please anyone. I get ragged on about frequent posts, I get ragged on about posts without pics, I get ragged on if I do infrequent posts with too much language.

Maybe I'll try pictures with no comments at all.
