a MONTH after I bought the car I had a ball joint go out, three months later the other went out.

My friend (prevoius owner) told me he had them inspected and dealer (Biggers, Elgin IL) said they were OK. Those SOBs

I replaced the balljoints and limped back to the dealer to have them fix my CV boot. SOB's said my drop could have put extra stress on the balljoint and the recall wont cover it.

Well, to make a long story short. I took it up with Mitsu North America and they repayed me in full :)
