This thread will probably get moved but I had to post where everyone could see it.
I just called Mitsubishi about the problems I am having with my 8k mile Evo. I explain the to the lady that we are stationed overseas with the USAF. Since I probably wont have any warranty coverage here I'd like it to be noted that I am having a 5th gear grind and my rear spoiler is getting white spots.
The lady puts me on hold and comes back with the following:
I am sorry to inform you that you no longer have ANY WARRANTY what so ever! Eh???? If the car leaves US soil at any time, your warranty is VOID. Unless you take it to Canada (what?). I asked the lady are you sure you don't mean any warranty COVERAGE? She puts me back on hold. She picks back up and said, No, your warranty is now void.
I totally don't know what to do at this point. Every Military member that gets stationed overseas and takes their Mitsu car with them is in for a big surprise. I honestly cant see how this is even remotely legal. So basically I just screwed myself by calling them.
I am going to base legal to see if I have any means of recourse. I cant believe I now now have a 30k paper weight if anything big goes wrong.
Way to support your US Military customers, Mitsubishi.
Just as a reference, Subaru told me I wouldn't have any warranty coverage while we where stationed here but our warranty would resume once we PCS'd back to the USA.

Muhaha its to do with the monkey in my trunk! :P... btw the claims you see are unrelated to the parts I have installed. I had my spoiler and a 4 wheel alignment performed on my vehicle. Having exhuast and cams installed in my vehicle isnt going to cause my carbon fiber to fade is it?

Anytime you shift the car faster than you would if you had a full cup of coffee with no lid in the cup holder. Seriously, you have to super granny it to avoid grinding. If you take it out of 5th into neutral and try to put it back in 5th, it sounds like the tranny is going to explode.

That was the first thing I thought of, looks like you're still ok from reading the thread though
My dealer works with Turbotrix so they don't mind some mods But I don't have any
