Before you buy

  1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
  2. Verify completion of the rear seat belt assembly recall.
  3. Inspect liftgate supports and confirm applicable recall repairs.
  4. Ask about electrical faults, collision warnings, and air bag lights.
  5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Mitsubishi dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
