Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I purchased my vehicle used from a dealership here locally, and have had problems with it ever since i bought it in late may of 2007, my brakes have started to squeak, i overheated due to either a faulty water pump and/or thermostat, and i have noticed that the steering pulled slightly to the right, and i put new tires on it and it was aligned before purchased. the dealership i bought it from may only be able to run a diagnostics on it, and might not have the tools to fix it. the nearest mitsubishi dealership is 180 miles away. warranty covers water pump and a rental of up to $35 a day, but in order to get a rental, i have to get a diagnostics done to make sure it is a covered component under my warrany i won't be able to get a diagnostics ran for at least several days, leaving me without a vehicle. dealership refused to loan a car off of the lot.*ak
