Kingston89: I purchased my 09' lancer in April. Began having problems with it shortley there after 3wks to be exact! I've brought the vehicle to the dealership 4xs with 2 months! I've had starter issues, problems with the radio stations tuning in, airpressure sensor coming on nonstop, engine sounding wierd and not good pickup! Then having to deal with a dealership giving me the runaround because I'm a female! (I've done business with them for over 7yrs) This was my 4th car from them, plus I've recommended my family there who have also purchased vehicles from them as well! I never thought I would ever be this unhappy with a purchase especially being a 2009 vehicle! I will have to take a loss and trade this vehicle in asap! Stay away from the Lancer it spells nothing but trouble! I have everthing but the nav. system.

my 09 lancer ES by steven39

king,don't let 1 bad review here stop you from considering a 09 lancer.i purchased a 06 honda civic lx coupe with auto back in aug 06..at 37,000 miles this past august the ac compressor failed and since i was over 36,000 miles i was on the hook for the repairs which would have been close to 800.00 parts and labor.disgusted at the fact that the compressor failed so early and that honda would cut me no slack i dumped the civic for a 09 mitsu lancer.i purchased the 09 lancer ES with cvt over this past labor day weekend.in the over 2 months that i have owned the lancer it's been a great car and blows the civic away.it's faster,more solid,and quiet,and handles great.i have not had any starter issues, or what not.however,as the person here mentioned i have also had on occasion difficulty tuning in radio stations.maybe it needs a bigger antena or something.infact,it's the worst reception iv'e had in a car.i tried adjusting the rear antena but it doesn't help..i wonder if other lancer owners are experiencing the same problem.if it aint one thing it's something else even with a brand new car.if it can break or fail it will i guess.

Honda interior is not better than the 2008 Lancer or 2009 Lancer. If you are in a Honda it feels like a Honda. I have 2 Hondas and they all drive the same and interior is pretty damn cheap.
 
First of all the Stereo sounds better than the Honda car stereo sounds like a Can.
 
My 2008 Lancer doesn't have 650 watts the sound quality is better. The Bass is great without the Sub-woofer
 
I have 37,650 miles on 2008 Lancer with NO PROBLEMS.
 
If it sawy to the right it is not the tires or the car it is the ROAD THAT YOU DRIVE
 
Believe I have the same problem before I thought it was the tires or steering wheel but it is actually the Highways.
 
Highways have an even pavements.
 
Try other roads and set the cruise control it will GO STRAIGHT.
 
if you live in State that has heavy snow. Our highways bend to the left because to minimize hydro and black ice

as a fellow 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer owner I just want to be sure you know that there has been one recall on the 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer. It is the rear door sash recall. Your dealer can hook you up with it.
 
If you already have had the recall done disregard this. The reason for the recall is to prevent the left side rear door from opening upon "certain crash impact angles."

thank you for all you guys intel and advice on the cars, im still having difficulty making up my mind on a 09 lancer gts with navigation or a civic ex with navigation or a accord lx-p, i was wondering 1 question though, im not really a sound guy, i mean i am, but i dont need 650 watts of rockford fosgate in my car and i dont like that 10-inch subwoofer in the back trunk waking up like 1/4 of the trunk, is there anyway i can get the tech package and the sun and sound package but only get the sun package? if you guys know?

1/4 of the trunk. More like about 1/8th of the trunk. It's a nice Rockford-Fosgate stereo system, man. I am happy I went with the Sun and Sound system in my 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer GTS.

That is to funny. I am having problems with my 09 lancer as well. About 3 weeks after I bought it too. This week will be the 4th time I have had it at the dealership as well. They tell me it is my cellphone one week, or the store brand of gas like sheetz, rutters the next week.

I'm sorry that you too have been experiencing problems. My biggest complaint is I purchased an 09 so I wouldn't have to be at the dealership for problems. I have had 3 other mitsubishis(eclipse and spyders), the only problem I had was when the spyder hit 40000 miles everything went wrong. Within one yr I spent $5000. The Lancer, though, is by far the worst car I have ever owned. I've can't wait to trade it in and boy am I going to take a loss. The worst part is I don't want to deal with the ONE and only Mitsubishi dealership in my area because they ripped me off on my last visit. The next closest dealership is over an hour away! This will definitely be my last mitsubishi! What a headache!

I got my 2009 Lancer GTS in September. I have not had one problem with it yet. It is a great car. It is fun to drive, good on gas, and has one of the best navigation systems I have ever used. For the money there are few cars out there that match it. I would recommend checking it out for sure.
