1. my 2005 Endeavor has 11,000 kms, covered by the warranty (it has less than a year since I bought it. Lst Friday I was driving normally to my work when I felt thumps and if it were pulling back and forth. I don't know how but I managed to park, and when I did something under it ripped off and a huge spot of oil appeared. It leaked all the transmission fluid on the pavement. This could have been lethal if it were on a road, according to the mechanic. Now Mitsubishi refuses to recognize warranty. The cause was a broken hose of transmission fluid which caused the leakage.
