THE VEHICLE WAS SHOWING NO SIGNS INITIALLY THEN AS I ENTERED THE HWY, THE ENGINE LIGHT, BATTERY AND ALL LIGHTS CAME ON. THEN IT STARTED BANGING LOUDLY AND PULLED OVER TO EXIT BUT THEN THE CAR STARTED TO SLOW DOWN AND DIED ON THE SHOULDER OF THE HWY. I BARELY MADE IT OFF AND IT RESTED ON THE EXIT RAMP. I WAS FEARFUL AND SHOCKED AS I HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS PREVIOUS TO THIS ISSUE. CAR WAS TOWED TO OUR MECHANIC, HE TURNED THE WORK DOWN BECAUSE IT WAS INTERNAL TO THE ENGINE. THEN IT WAS CONFIRMED BY FRANK LETA MITSUBISHI THAT IT WAS CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM ENTERPRISE 02/09/2019 AS A SECOND OWNER WITH THEIR APPROVAL THAT IT WAS A GREAT CAR. IT IS NOT AND ALL SO ABRUPT!

AS FOR THE MOST PART I LOVE MY CAR BUT THE INTERIOR FOGS UP AND MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE . YOU CAN NOT DRIVE THIS CAR IF THE WIND IS BLOWING. IT'S HARD TO KEEP IT ON THE ROAD. NEVER! ACCIDENTALLY RUN OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. IT WILL ALMOST FLIP. SO I HAVE FOUND THAT DRIVING DEFENSE IS THE ONLY WAS TO DRIVE THE MIRAGE. ITS TIRESOME JUST TO GO GET GROCERIES. LOVE THE GAS MILEAGE. I SHOULD HAVE RESEARCHED THE CAR. I HAD AN ECLIPSE AND I LOVED IT. I GUESS I THOUGHT THE MIRAGE, BEING A MITSUBISHI WOULD HAVE KINDA THE SAME. NOT IN POWER BUT THE WAY IT DROVE.

Summary

I HAVE NOTICED THAT WHEN DRIVING OVER ROUGH ROAD, OR AFTER AN ABRUPT POTHOLE, ALL ELECTRONICS IN THE CAR WILL SHUT OFF. AFTER ABOUT FIVE MINUTES A RESET WILL START AND, EVEN THOUGH I'M STILL DRIVING, ALL THE DASH LIGHTS AND TEST WILL GO THROUGH THE CYCLE USUALLY RESERVED FOR WHEN I START THE CAR. IF I HAPPEN TO TURN OFF THE CAR WHILE IT IS IN THIS SORT OF OUTAGE, IT WILL REQUIRE A JUMP TO START. THE RADIO WILL FORGET ITS STATIONS, AND THE CLOCK WILL NEED TO HAVE THE TIME SET AGAIN. I HAVE TRIED MY OWN REMEDIES (LIKE JIGGLING THE FUSE BOX (WHICH DOES NOT SEEM WELL ATTACHED), AND WIGGLING WIRES) TRYING TO TRACK DOWN THE PROBELM WITH NO SUCCESS. MY PRIVATE MECHANIC SAYS THAT HE HAS SEEN THIS IN OTHER MIRAGES AND NEVER FOUND THE CAUSE. IT ONLY HAPPENS ABOUT A SECOND AFTER A LARGE BUMP OR HEAVY REPEATED VIBRATIONS. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED (FROM ENTERPRISE RENTALS), HAVE OWNED IT ABOUT A YEAR, AND IT HAS HAPPENED FOUR TIMES. THANK YOU FOR THE GOOD WORK YOU DO. I HOPE THIS HELPS.

Summary

I WAS STOPPED IN TRAFFIC WHEN I WAS REAR ENDED BY A DRIVER DOING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH ON A 3 LANE PARKWAY, WHICH CAUSED ME TO CRASH INTO THE CAR RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. THE COLLISION WAS VIOLENT ENOUGH TO CAUSE BRUISING ON MY BICEP AND UPPER THIGHS AND KNOCKED MY HEARING AIDS ONTO THE DASH. THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY AND THE SEAT BELT INERTIAL REEL DID NOT ACTIVATE PROPERLY AS MY HEAD WAS ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN IT FINALLY CAUGHT. I DO NOT KNOW IF THE SEATBELT REACHED THE END OF ITS LENGTH, OR THE INERTIAL REEL FINALLY LOCKED, BUT WHEN IT DID STOP ME, THE LAP BELT WAS ON MY UPPER THINGS, THE SHOULDER STRAP WAS DOWN ACROSS MY ARM AND STOMACH AND MY HEAD WAS UP OVER THE STEERING WHEEL HEADED FOR THE FRONT WINDOW. I BELIEVE THIS EXACERBATED MY LOWER BACK INJURY BY CAUSING A SEVERE TWISTING MOMENT AS OPPOSED TO BEING RESTRAINED PROPERLY IN THE SEAT.
