| Brake light came on & front pads had to be replaced & rotors were turned @ 21k on my 2004 mitzubishi endeavor in 11/06. then found out in 6/09 when the brakes were failing on me @ 47k miles a design flaw caused the pins to collect moisture & froze up & therefore caused the calipers to freeze up ruining the rotors & the pads. since the rotors were turned @ 21k, the rotors needed replaced costing me over $1000. we also had water coming out of the blower motor causing it to fail. *tr | |||

| We own a 2004 mitsubishi endeavor with 90,000 mile s on . the problem we are having is brake related and as occured 6-7 times the last 5-6 months - its doesnt occur all the time its intermittent and only after car sitts for a period of time usually over nite . the problem is the when the brakes are first applied theres a slow response time for them to work and the pedal has to be depressped very hard or pumped . we first noticed this after thanksgiving of lst year the problem repeated till in march when i had a locl auto service shop loook at the problem (ase master certified ) - he couldnt find a problem but machine font rotors thinking that might be the problem - a few weks later the problem occurred again . tats when i contacted the local mitsubishi dealer and explained the problem to him explained it hi in delai - he said it might be brake pads and replaced them - howver shortly there after the problem happened again and my wife just missing rear ending the rtruck in front of her. i again called the mitsubishi dealer - explained things ahgain to them - this was after i contacted the corp. customer servive center of mitsubishi - she said to take it back into them - we did - they stated the couldnt find any problem. i am becoming quite concerned about this safety issue and would like to know what my next steps re in solving this situation and my legal rights . im extremely concerned about injuries here - please advice | |||

| Replacing front and back pads every 5k - 8k miles. replaced front and back rotors twice in 100k. replacing front and back calipers one in 100k. replacing calipers pins both front and back every time pads were replaced. turns out because of poor engineering and design the calipers pins collect moisture and corrode causing them to freeze up and not allowing calipers to perform properly, in turn the calipers are restricted , ruining the rotors and eat up the pads. *tr | |||
