I'm backing up on a reverse mode and a slightly elevated RV parking to get some heavy items next to my drive way, I slowly moving and try to aligned it to the pavement I notice the backup camera didn't work and press my feet to the break then after I release it accelerate past backward hitting the wooden fench and zero ground the 6 foot shed, causing the back body part of the car wreck and I end up on a 3 bricks high planter. I have some history in the past that the following day that I got the car from the dealer I returned it to them because I heared a popping sound on the engine part when I stop the engine, they said its just normal but with all the cars that I had I never experience this so unusual and the static on the car seat everytime I come out of the car I even transfer the static feel when somebody touch me I and after a week they put leather seat it is still the same what I did I put a rug on my seat that lessen the static. Everytime I bring the car on all the complaints they just ignore it and telling me its just normal and because I never bought any brand new car except Mitsubishi since 1997 so my trust is still there until this crash happend to me and first time in my entire life its good thing it happens with in my property what if this malfunction happens outside and I hurt somebody that accident was traumatic to me I don't want to drive that car anymore I don't know what will happen next. I file complain with them, then after 3 weeks they don't want to take responsibility and advise me to just claim accident on my insurance. I ask the service manager to please email me a copy of their investigation and a written report on their advise on me. Michael of Mitsubishi anaheim is hesitant to give me any written report on the test they've done and advice they want me to do.
