Hi all
Took my car in a couple of weeks ago because the handbrake had gone loose. Apparently a rear brake caliper had seized - the garage asked if I had been off-roading as the wheels were dirty! No, I just live in a rural area and it has been rather wet and muddy this winter! I was advised to jet wash my wheels - I don't think I've jet washed any wheels in 25 years of driving, without this sort of problem... Anyway, they said they would have to check with Mitsubishi whether the £400 part (preumably plus vat and significant labour) would be covered by the warranty. The car has done 19000 miles.
Just wondering if anyone has any comments before I call them to find out the verdict - I fear I may get into an argument...
Thanks
