| Started car, noticed 3 random lights illuminated on instrument cluster. then power steering was intermittent. then a/c went out and would not cool down. then power steering failed completely. car was driven to repair shop nearby, since no local mitsubishi dealer. mechanic found crankshaft bolt broken that led to power steering and a/c pulley not working. incident led to near loss of control during turning , as power steering would kick in at times during cornering and lead to oversteer. had to change crankshaft bolt, harmonic balancer, timing belt gear, and something else. *tr | |||
