As someone else mentioned in this thread, this is the first time anyone on here has heard of this problem. Yes, it is a first model year in the US, but it has been in use overseas since 2012. The only widespread defect I have seen is the CVT models having starter engagement issues. Defects happen. Mitsu is replacing the ECU AND CVT under warranty, no questions asked, after one visit to the dealer. They are not blaming it on the driver, not trying to bandaid the issue, I have seen manufacturers handle things much worse.... this to me seems to be pretty a pretty stellar response to a problem that isnt necessarily life and limb threatening.
