? If your profile is correct and you have a fwd then you don't have a transfer case...
There is a problem with the seal in the transfer case. They will inspect the transfer case for undue wear caused by low tranny fluid if it has been leaking.
If the transfer case is in good shape, they won't replace it. They will replace the bad seal.

I think the recall he posted is misleading because it says the affected component is the automatic transmission. The transfer case puts power to the rear wheels on the AWD cars. Therefore, you don't have one, so I don't think it's leaking.

I just found this out as well, except when I take my my car to the two mitsu dealers here, they tell me the god damn part numbers on my transfer case and vin don't match up.. I didn't even know there were any part numbers on it, much less any to go with the VIN..
I don't know anyone with a 15yr old DSM that has the original Transfer Case in it..
Should I keep trying and complaining, or is it true that they technically do not have to do it because it's a different part.. I have a whole Evo III set up. Help guys.. this thing is takin' shit on me and I'm worried I'll get hurt or worse, hurt the car! :banana:
