This was my Triton I showed you all in the into section a few weeks ago
well this is it now
here is a slide show of the Chassis failure both side exactly the same.
Also the tailgate came open a few time on the rough corrogations and rubbed against the HF mount.
I have been i an agument with Mitsubishi for the last 5 weeks an this is the result.
Well The fight is on Mitsubishi have said NO warranty on my truck. Reason: I have modifide the springs. BE WARNED even if you change your shocks they can nock back your warranty uprated springs will void your warranty. I will put up a full report soon but in short ALL the accerories were firred by the dealer.Or by OP at the request of the dealer. I took delivery of the truck with all acceries fitted or at least paid for the conopy took two months to arrive.The dealer paid and arranged for the fitment of the acceries. Even tho the dealer fitted them Mitsubishi does not care. not their problem they say.
Also I DID NOT sign any waver regarding the acceries. As Mitsubishi have a page in the front of the service booklett that both parties are to sign and the dealer is to explane that if you fit ANY acceries to the vehicle you will void you warranty. unless it is Mitsubishi stamped and approved.
Even if you put a hayman reece tow bar on cause it may be 200bux cheeper than the oringal you are gone even tho hayman reece make the bars for Mitsubishi it MUST have the Mitsubishi plate on it or your warranty will be voided.
ALSO there will be lot of speculation on this, but the truck was 205kgs under GVM. And even if you take into account the rear bar with tyers on and the draw bar down load the down load was 45kgs UNDER the 270 alowed..
This is not an isolated case, there have been 5 presenited to David island Mitsubishi in Cairns in the last few months. I have pics of a nother one in Sydney and the have been two others in NSW that I have found out about and one in Toowoomba. Also i seen two on the Bruce Hiway on Wednesday on my way up to Noosa. thee was a white one with canopy and off road camper bent as bad as mine then about 20 min later I seen a Grey one with an old type Millard caravan abou 18' long with a bend not quite as bad they were heading south as I was gooing north.
Here is a slide show of the damage this bend is IN front of the axiel. Cilck on pic
