It's been widely reported that Mitsubishi Motors covered-up customer complaints and recall-related issues for years in Japan. Well, now auto.com is reporting that there were complaints in the U.S. too. Anyone affected by this latest Mitsu snafu?

auto.com (http://www.auto.com/industry/mitsu23_20000823.htm) ASSOCIATED PRESS article:
As it announced another recall Tuesday, affecting 88,000 cars and trucks, half of them in the United States, Mitsubishi acknowledged the longtime cover-up.

The article doesn't say that the complaints from the U.S. were covered up. In fact, Mitsubishi recalled vehicles in the U.S. before the recalling vehicles with the same defects in Japan.

What ever happened to Mitsubishi???
I am from Holland and live In Canada. Use to drive Mitsu overthere and here in Canada I had two Turbo Colts. They were a blast to drive and very very reliable. Shame on Mitsu!!!
