Two problems related to latches/locks/linkage have been reported for the 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor based on all problems reported for the 2004 Endeavor.
Back tailgate window switch and back tailgate door latch/switch/handles of early 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavors just fail with no warning and neither can be opened with or without key fob. After some searching I noticed on the internet that this is a common problem. This makes it not possible to access the spare tire, or in case of accident the rescue persons cannot access the car from the back door or window. I understand this has been an ongoing problem with the early 2004 models. I had to pay close to $400 to repair this.
Latches do not work for hatch. Cannot open hatch.
