THERE IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THE MITSUBISHI DIAMANTE HEATER CORE GOING OUT. MINE WENT OUT A FEW DAYS AGO AND WAS INFORMED BY MITSUBISHI IT WILL COST ME 965 TO REPLACE. EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF MITSUBISHI DIAMANTE OWNERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM INCLUDING WITH PEOPLE THAT HAVE AS LO
... W AS 30-45K ON THEIR VEHICLE. PLEASE LOOK AT THIS FORUM WHICH SHOW MANY MITSUBISHI OWNERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THEIR VEHICLE.. HTTP://WWW.DIAMANTEOWNERS.COM/FORUM/LOFIVERSION/INDEX.PHP?T3615-0.HTML PLEASE HELP ME AND HELP THESE POOR OWNERS. RECALL THIS MAJOR ERROR MISTUBISHI KNOWS ABOUT BUT REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT AND KEEP SILENT. THIS ALSO CAN CAUSE DEATH BECAUSE WHEN THE HEATER CORE FAILS IT LEAKS AND CAUSES A BAD ODOR OF ANTIFREEZE. YOU WOULDN'T WANT YOUR KIDS BREATHING ON THAT WOULD YOU. ON THE WEBSITE I HAVE PROVIDED YOU IT WILL SHOW A CASE IN WHICH A PERSON WENT INTO RESPIRATORY FAILURE DO TO INHALING ANTI FREEZE.. MANY OF THESE OWNERS TILL THIS DAY FACE A DANGER BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO DRIVE THESE VEHICLES AS IT IS THERE ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION AND MANY CANNOT AFFORD TO FIX THIS EXPENSIVE PROBLEM (COSTING AS MUCH AS 1,300). WE BEG OF ALL THE GOOD PEOPLE THAT HAD MADE A DIFFERENCE IN PEOPLES LIVES, SAFETY AND SECURITY TO HELP US DIAMANTE OWNERS THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS *TRRead more
