Transfer Case problem #1

The contact owns a 1999 Mitsubishi 3000gt vr4 model. While driving 35 mph, the wheels locked and the vehicle slid to a stop as if it had been rear ended. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and they stated that the recall repair for NHTSA campaign id number 02v143001 (power train:transfer case (4wheel drive)) had previously been performed at 50,000 miles. They further stated that they were not obligated to perform the recall repair again. The contact felt as if he had whiplash in his neck and back, but he has not yet seen a doctor. The current and failure mileages were 93,000.

Manual Transmission problem #2

Reverse routinely grinds due to poor syncro design.
