So after my car at about 2,000 miles on it my front strut mounts gave out I had them inspected and was told that they were bad the car was practically brand new I was having a lot of noise coming from the front end and I noticed that my car took a lot longer to brake than it should. And I believe that this is a safety concern because it shouldn't be going out that soon and the increased breaking distance associated with it increases the risk of accidents. And the strut mounts should not be bad from that early on. Also another problem that my vehicle has had that I haven't gotten diagnosed yet is there is a popping sound coming from the transaxle where the axle goes into the transmission and a delay in acceleration sometimes and other times my car randomly jolts forward. And I have to explanation as to why. And the third problem that I've had from about the same mileage as my car randomly not turning on though not a safety concern unless you really need to get somewhere it still shouldn't have that problem with so little miles and it's never been in an accident. I just remembered one other thing my car rolls if the parking brake is not on which I feel like that is a safety concern it will roll about a good four or five inches and it is really sketchy and it does not have enough mileage on it to be doing this and I have never been in an accident it started doing this around the same time all these problems arose around about 2,000 miles on my car and I have to have my e-brake on just to feel comfortable to park it and I have a friend who also has a Mitsubishi and hers doesn't do that and I feel like it has something to do with the popping sound in the transmission area.

In December 2016 purchased 3rd set of brand new tires due to excessive wear and tear. Was told rear suspension/axle welded in, and at an angle, causing excessive wear and tear on tires, even with regular rotations. A second dealer/service station has confirmed during an oil change this with the Mirages being a design flaw.
The car does not handle well when going around bends, it wants to pull you off the road. It has been found that many of these cars like mine have a very bad alignment problem on the rear axle witch is not adjustable.
My rear axel has a manufacturing defect. My car drifts at any speed over 80kms/hr. After all my research, apparently I'm not the only buyer with this issue. Mine is being replaced under warantee. There is no recall been issued. After two or three problems, thats the first thing Mitsubishi should have done. This happened at 15400 kms. And only # months old. The toe on the right tire is out . 48.
Had an independant alignment done. Found rear out of spec. Took to Mitsubishi about the issue. First alignment check cost me $160. Sheet said that it was out again. Dealership made me come back again to check one more time. Magically this time its "within" spec. So somehow Mitsubishi managed to change alignment numbers on an axle thats not adjustable. . My rear tires have only 15000 miles (20000 kms) and are very worn and beat from this axle. Its so bad you can actually see how much toe the right rear tire has. Unacceptable and this presents a danger to the stability of the vehicle!!! im from alberta canada but this needs to be shared everywhere possible!!.
This vehicle was bought as a new vehicle on a local dealership, cabrera auto, at arecibo, pr on 05/03/2015. On 05/08/2015, while driving on the highway at approximately 55 mph, the vehicle randomly pulled left or right, unable to keep it on a straight line. On instances during changing lanes were there are division lines on the road or when driving over road irregularities or bumps, the instability of the vehicle was so noticeable to the point of feeling at risk during driving, afraid to loose control at any time. By this time the vehicle was about 200 miles reading. By may 29, 2015, while parked in my home's garage, I noticed that the vehicle was tilted (height was lower on the drivers side). I checked the basics (leveled floor, even air pressure of the tires) and measured the height from the floor to the chassis, finding the driver's side about 3/4" lower than the passengers side. The issue was reported to the vendor and service department. After many days of calling and claiming, the service department did not make the proper evaluation and concluded vaguely that the vehicle was fine. By this time the vehicle was about 1000 miles reading. On July 29, 2015 the vehicle was diagnosed on a service center, finding misalignment of the front steering system. In addition, the service center performed a reprogramming of the pcm engine module according to TSB 15-13-001, for which I don't have an explanation. Currently the vehicle has a 5500 miles reading. Alignment and stability seems to be solved, but it is under monitoring. Tilt or inclination issue is still pending. The justification provided about the vehicle's tilt is that all vehicles come with some defects from manufacturer and I should consider it normal. When sold, the vehicle had been on dealership storage since Sep-2014 until sold on may-2015.
The contact owns a 2015 Mitsubishi Mirage. While driving various speeds, the vehicle veered in both directions. The contact had to steer the vehicle in excess in order to keep the vehicle in position. In addition, when passengers or items were in the rear of the vehicle, it lowered and the undercarriage scraped bumps in the road. The failure recurred on numerous occasions. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 300.
