For sale – 2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS with less than 82,500 miles! This car is equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission, 4 cylinder engine, motorized glass retractable sunroof, and Infinity sound system. I am the second owner, and have all major maintenance records on the car since it was new. It has always been very well maintained. I am asking $4,300 OBO. The tires have about 2,000-3,000 miles or so until they will need replacement, but if you make a full-price offer I will include new tires and even cover the cost of their installation – all you will have to do is schedule an appointment with the shop to have them installed at your convenience. I have included just about everything I can think of relating to this car below. If you are interested, don't hesitate to get in touch.

MECHANICAL This car has been impeccably maintained its entire life. It runs great, starts every time, and leaks absolutely no fluids. It does not burn oil. The clutch engages and disengages properly. The transmission shifts smoothly without grinding between gears. In short, this car should not require anything aside from tires for quite a while. The car has never left me stranded in the 20,000 miles I have driven it, and is about as reliable as you can get. That kind of peace of mind can be hard to find in this price range. All available maintenance records will be provided to the new owner, but here are some of the highlights:
--I just installed new front brake pads and rotors within the last 100 miles.
--Oil was changed about 2,400 miles ago. The car will be due for its next oil change in 2,600 miles. To my knowledge, oil has always been changed at least every 5,000 miles, often more frequently than that.
--Manual transmission fluid was replaced about 12,000 miles ago.
--Spark plugs, plug-on-coils, and wires were replaced about 12,000 miles ago with long-life spark plugs.
--Battery was replaced about 12,000 miles ago in summer 2013.
--O2 sensor was replaced about 12,000 miles ago.
--Timing belt was replaced about 26,000 miles ago and therefore should not require servicing again for at least 34,000+ miles.
--AC blows cold.
--As mentioned above, the tires will need replacement within the next couple thousand miles and I will cover this cost with a full-price offer.

COSMETIC AND INTERIOR The car is 11 years old, so naturally it has acquired some “character.” The car has never been in a major accident or sustained unibody/frame damage to my knowledge. The worst that has occurred is that sadly I hit a dog going about 25mph last summer and that caused some subtle dimpling and deformity of the bumper on the left-front side. The car also has a dent about 1.5” x 3” on the left-front quarter panel that had magically appeared when I returned to the car in a parking lot. The radio loads and plays CDs but sometimes has difficulty ejecting CDs all the way. The driver’s side has what appears to be a small cigarette burn in the seat. By the way, the car in no way smells like it had been a smoker’s car, which is why I always wondered about that mark on the seat (it was there when I bought it). The dash plastic is cracked in a couple of places. Other than that there are just a few minor run-of-the-mill door ding type things here and there; nothing obvious or out of the ordinary. The paint is in pretty good shape, with the exception of the front bumper which is not too bad but on close inspection the clear coat seems to be flaking a bit. There are no cracks or chips in the glass. The interior is clean and free of foul odors.

I think that about covers everything. Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions or want to come take a look at the car.

2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport recalled over brake lamps

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

Mitsubishi is recalling certain 2013 Outlander Sport models for a couple of brake-related reasons. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the brake lamps may illuminate continuously or intermittently. On top of that, the NHTSA report states that the vehicle's shift lever could be moved out of the Park position without depressing the brake pedal.
A total of 4,539 Outlander Sport models are being recalled for these issues. All of the affected vehicles were built between June 11 and September 11, 2012.
Obviously, both of these issues can be hazardous. If the brake lamps do not illuminate properly, other vehicles may not realize that the car is stopping. And if the shift lever can be moved from Park without touching the brake pedal, the vehicle could roll away unexpectedly.

Carlos Ghosn video: 'This is about conspiracy. This is about backstabbing'

Tue, Apr 9 2019

TOKYO — Nissan's former Chairman Carlos Ghosn maintained his innocence in a video released by his legal team Tuesday and accused some executives at the Japanese automaker of a "conspiracy" that led to his arrest on financial misconduct allegations. "The first message is that I'm innocent," said Ghosn, wearing a white shirt and dark jacket and speaking calmly in the nearly 10-minute video shown at the Foreign Correspondents' Club in Tokyo. "This is a conspiracy," he said. "This is not about specific events, this is not about, again, greed, this is not about dictatorship. This is about a plot. This is about conspiracy. This is about backstabbing." His lawyer Junichiro Hironaka said the video was prepared in case Ghosn was not able to speak at a news conference planned for Thursday. Ghosn was arrested last week while out on bail and remains at the Tokyo Detention Center. Ghosn said the executives behind the conspiracy were motivated by what he called "selfish fears," including what they saw as a merger with French alliance partner Renault SA. They mistook his leadership for greed and dictatorship, when he was the biggest defender of Nissan's autonomy, Ghosn said. He also said he was worried about Nissan, wondering whether those executives were really watching out for the company. Hironaka said a section of the video in which Ghosn mentioned names was removed on his legal advice. Nissan Motor Co., while declining to comment on the criminal case, has said an internal investigation has found that Ghosn falsified financial documents to under-report compensation, and that he used Nissan money for personal gain. "Nissan's internal investigation has uncovered substantial evidence of blatantly unethical conduct," company spokesman Nicholas Maxfield said when asked for comment on Ghosn's video. "The company's focus remains on addressing weaknesses in governance that enabled this misconduct." Ghosn's fourth arrest was on a fresh breach of trust allegation based on suspicion that payments from a Nissan subsidiary to an Oman dealership were diverted to a company effectively run by Ghosn. On Monday, Nissan Motor Co. shareholders voted to oust Ghosn from its board and to approve the appointment of French alliance partner Renault SA's Chairman Jean-Dominique Senard as Ghosn's replacement. Renault owns 43 percent of Nissan.

Mexican police seize engine-powered drug cannon

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

It seems like we're always hearing about new ways in which people are trying to smuggle things into the US from Mexico - including simply driving over the wall. Case in point? Mexican police have found yet another way criminals are attempting to get drugs over the border. Mexicali police have seized what looks to be either a Mitsubishi Mighty Max or Dodge Ram 50 pickup, equipped with what is essentially an oversized spud gun in the bed used to shoot marijuana over the border.
Constructed from a metal tank and a large plastic pipe, The Guardian reports that this drug cannon actually uses a car engine to build up enough air pressure to launch up to 13 kilos of marijuana at a time. Mexicali police were alerted to this truck when their US counterparts found drug packages on this side of the border. As of yet, there is no word as to how the vehicle was caught and whether any arrests resulted.
