Asked by Trevor Salisbury
I had rust spotting on my 2013 Mitsubishi Triton within three months of buying it brand new in June 2014. I took it to my dealer and they admitted there was a problem. They put a clay bay over the whole car, but this did not resolve the issue. I took it back, but they assumed no responsibility, and said there is nothing they could do. Two years on I now have rust appearing on top of three door folds and the rust spots have become bigger and more numerous. Has anyone else had this same issue?
Answered by CarsGuide
8 Jul 2016There have been other reports of rust in the Triton. When Mitsubishi was approached with a similar problem in 2015, the company offered the owner a full inspection and a Mitsubishi representative present and the promise that it would be rectified in line with the company's warranty. On that basis I would suggest you contact Mitsubishi headquarters direct and request similar action on your vehicle.
