Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Windshield fogging up with film and defog not even touching it. noticed smoky like air coming from under passenger side dash. ac is now flaky. sometimes will work sometimes won't. most likely heater core is defective or leaking as stated in mitsubishi diamante tsb. car is 2002 with roughly 40k miles on it. ridiculous. from what i have read online most dealers are charging up to $1200 to fix this. this is not just a safety hazard but a health hazard depending on how long me and my family have been breathing in condensed antifreeze and not knowing it. will never buy a mitsubishi again!! *nm
