1 Horn Assembly problem

Failure Date: 03/10/2006

Car was shut off at work for about 30 - 50 minutes when the horn started to blare for no reason -- no alarm installed. Opened car door and electrical burning smell was present. Had to pull fuse to get it shut off. Vehicle was locked and empty at time.

2 Horn Assembly problem

Failure Date: 08/01/2002

Along with several recalls, the brakes, rotors, battery, all four tires had to be replaced at my expense. Horn still does not properly work after being replaced. Electrical failures with blinker light (inside and outside) and outside rear driver side light staying on even when car is turned off. Service department says they find nothing wrong. Letters written to Mitsubishi go unresponsive to and/or are referred to my local service department, with no response, only that my claims are denied. Need help. Please check this out. Can't understand how a brand new vehicle can have to have so many parts replaced (at my expense) and so many other defects and no one provide any answers/reasons or responses to complaints. Please help. Thank you in advance for your attention.
