    Totally agree. However, I cannot imagine that with 121,046 cars sold in 2019 that every service part has to get shipped over from Japan. Mitsubishi has a warehouse in Cyprus, CA last I cheeked.

    It would be interesting to get Nickel's thought on this, because he works at a Mitsubishi dealership (Canada) in this capacity?

    Basic parts like plugs, oil, belts, filters, etc... should be stocked.

    I order a pair of front tires for my riding lawn mower this past Sunday evening, because they are really worn & cracked (27 year old originals). Fedex delivered to my home yesterday (two days later). I've been pushing my luck with those tires for a few years now. When they go, I am ready now!

    Lack of good dealerships & availability of parts is surely the biggest knock on these cars. I can honestly say that I knew that going in. It's why I spent some researching the Mirage before purchasing one. Positive customer reviews, Fummin's positive fleet comments, & others on this forum helped erased some of that fear.

    If I thought the Mirage was a piece of junk that needed a lot dealership work, I would have bought a Chevy Spark instead. Well-established Chevy dealerships are all around me.

    Thankfully, places like Rock Auto, Auto Zone, & others cover most of the basic part needs.

    There's a hole at the back of the foam pad; like it isn't filled. Dealer said that's the way all the seats. I have a thread on it here: https://mirageforum.com/forum/showth...ont-Seat-Divot
    Let me go check out the Mirages here and see if they have that same spot. Might be something with how the seats are made. I'll report back in a bit.

    Okay so the 18 GT seats I put into my black 15, the 19 SE seats, and the 2020 ES seats have a little divet in that same spot. So that's normal I guess for them.

    Well, the material isn't like hanging down or anything but yeah that little circle in the foam is what I'm talking about.
