general problems of the 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor

My key is stuck in the lock position, won't go all the way back to come out.

My key is stuck in the ignition. We were on vacation and on sat may 23,2020 when we got back to our hotel the key wouldn't release to come out of ignition.

I had replaced the water pumps getting ready to replace it again and when it went out the power steering messed up I'm also having issues with the timing belt it was replaced at 112,000 miles and it was inspected at 121,000 and was okay but it snapped on me the other day the highway replacing it for the second time now at 188,000+ miles not even 100,000 miles later from the first time. This isn't cheap also my heater core went again.

I bought it like this and don't really know.

Had recall repaired (fuel injection pipe)@ pomoco hampton va. Immediately afterwards, engine light came on while driving 6 miles up the road. Five days later water started leaking on driver side only. Took vehicle back to dealer. They stated, a hose was missing on recall repair. I wondered why whenever I topped off gas @ the pump, fuel leaked from back tire area under vehicle. Fire hazard. They quoted 1500 to fix water leak. Got a it fix @ another auto repair. Six mths later, back to pomoco for yrly inspection, 2 days later, whenever I press brakes, make turns on city streets, highway, or in motion I feel something rolls under my feet but cant see it, must be underneath. A mth afterwards, everything is wet. All the floor boards, puddles. Cardboard, towels nothing will stop the water flow with ac functioning. I have 128,000 miles on the vehicle, bought in 2010 with 51,000 on it. Ever since the fuel pipe recall, that pomoco took 3 mths to complete because they didnt want to do the work which forced me to file complaint with the corporation, NHTSA, & one other, I've had water problems. This will be taken to a higher legal level due to this is & continues to cause harm, intentional or otherwise. We're advised here not to get personal but mold & mushrooms etc, should not exist in a vehicle. I see this has been an issue with lots of others and nothing done to date. Started in around oct 2015 (recall repair) & again may 2016.

I have talked to Mitsubishi numerous times since August 2016. They keep passing the buck or case manager is on vacation. I've been using a hose and funnel to fuel my car because the fill tube has rusted out. This and 4 more recalls on this car puts me in a dangerous situation that Mitsubishi is aware of. I am tired of getting the run around.

Standing water on driver side floor. Hvac drain plug is clogged and now warning lights for many different items are appearing on dash display and this is caused by water running through. I do not know of many auto makers that put drain plug under dash board. This could very well turn into an electrical and or fire hazard. Contacted dealer and was told this was the first they have heard of this. There are many many many complaints online so they do know about the problem.

I was going to open a door for my child when the rear passenger door handle just snapped off. Extremely scary. What if it was an emergency situation.

Noticed I have water on drivers side floor from ac. Water pools and saturates the floor. Feet can get wet and slip off of brake or gas pedal. Also concern of mold growing in interior. Online search finds this is a common problem with this vehicle and no recall has been issued.

Driver side floor stays sopping wet. I am assuming this is from the ac drain hose. Mechanics want $700-1000 to attempt to fix the problem, but say there are no guarantees as this has been an ongoing defect with the 2004 Endeavor. This raises several safety issues with main one being that feet are wet and slippery and likely to cause being unable to brake as needed due to foot slipping off pedal. Other safety concerns are in regards to the mold due to being unable to keep it dry. Please recall this and have it fixed as it should be. The consumer should not have to absorb this cost when it is a defect that should not have occurred.

My back hatch will not open from the outside!! have to go threw the back seat to open it!!!!.

I noticed that the floor on the driver side of my Mitsubishi Endeavor 2004, bought in the same year, was soaking wet and couldn't understand why since it was not raining. My son noticed that the floor gets soaking wet whenever he or I use the car. I suspect that it might be the aircon leaking but didn't bring it to the mechanic because I was scared of the expense which I cannot afford now that we're on fixed income. Since June 2013, however, the leaking has noticeably increased, and my son used thick bath towels to dry the floor, but I noticed that the towels get soggy with whatever is leaking, but even a couple of thick bath towels not enough to dry the floor. Being concerned about it because it's starting to smell mildew inside my car, I told him to vacuum it, but it still remains wet and stinky that I'm scared for my health and that of my son as he has developed severe allergy, and I'd been sickly also, but I credit mine to old age, but cannot understand his since he didn't have it before. Being very concerned about the problem I decided to go online and found that many others are experiencing the same problem and health concerns. I cannot understand why Mitsubishi hasn't addressed the issue with a recall, or the vehicle owners not instituted a class action suit, which I will join since it's a vehicle defect that Mitsubishi corporation admits exists, yet has not issued a recall even though it's a critical safety and health issue affecting consumers.

I discovered the floor all wet on the driver side while I was driving. It has been wet for the past 1. 5 months and since it's been getting hot I think it has to do with ac drainage issue. This is a big concern because this can cause my shoe to be wet and slip when I try to brake.

Cannot remove key from ignition switch. . . Has always made an echo type sound when you are sitting idle since I bought the car in 2005.

After driving my 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor over the past few years I had a gas leak that I thought was stranger while fueling my SUV . It turned out to fall under the recall for my SUV. I had this problem long before the recall was issued . Lord only knows how much gas I lost at the pump that I will never get back. . . But I recently had a problem with my front rotors I had a Mitsubishi dealer inspect my entire SUV for any and everything else that could be wrong. . Just the other day I went to stop at a red signal and my SUV did brake but only for a second it started to slide forward as I lost braking power in my front brakes I heard a big pop and a clank as I applied my brakes and halfway slid through the light after the light turned green I drove a ways down the road and was hearing the clank sound and it felt as if the front tires were trying to catch on something I thought it might have been the calibers or the brake pads. I pulled into the closest gas station to see what had happened . The pads were fine the tires were fine and everything looked ok no brakes fluid leaking the calibers were fine. . . I slowly drove/coasted my SUV to a friend’s home going about five to ten miles an hour. I took off the driver side front tire to see if indeed it was the brake pads or calibers as I was taking off the tire I noticed that the rotor had split in half. Like separating two plates at that point I called a licensed mechanic and he stated it sound like a defect in the rotors i’ve had these rotors on the SUV since i’ve had it and it was checked out by a dealers service center before this had happened. I wondered since my SUV had to go through the recall of the fuel filler for SUV in the north for salt and snow that would corroded my fuel filler would it be the same for the rotors if they were to have a special kind of rotors for my SUV used in the north during winter, I was told it was a good thing I hadn't been traveling at higher rate of speed it could have been worse.

The out standing recall I had completed 03/15/2011 at dealer no 15102 . . I called Mitsubishi inc in California to fix and remove this recall from their data which it reflects exactly on your data they informed me that there are no recalls on my vehicle outstanding and it's been a week since I reported it to them. I need them to remove it immediately early Monday and email me at tarigkamill@hotmail. Com or call me at 7085909606 attached is a proof the recall completion top second page.

2004 Endeavor, driver side compartment filled with water. Water leaking into car from behind gas pedal area making driving harzardous with wet slippery gas and break pedals. When no compressor is run there is no water, but you cannot get rid of humidity and internal window fogging without running the ac/defrost function which puts more water on the floor. Mold is growing across the floorboard of the vehicle from repeated water leak. Dealer advised faulty washer at hose drain connection, requiring entire dash be removed. $1000 repair for a $1. 50 defective washer in dash. Alternate repair recommendations online require a new hole be drilled in firewall to replace washer from backside.

A/c drains to the interior drivers side floor board creating a sever safety hazard, also rusts out the fan blower.

Water leaking in the car from under the dash. I understand this is common for this vehicle. . . . If this is a manufacture error why should they be required to correct it.
