great news!.... Honda will needa couple of days to fix the steering....
Give them all the time they need to fix it.. trust me, trying to turn with no power steering is freaking rediculous.

Better yet, trying to consistantly turn with no power steering is rediculous.

7 Year / 100,000 Mile Platinum Warranty (Bumper to Bumper) is just over $1,000 for me - $0 deductable!

I have till I reach 36k miles or June 07' to place the order at this price, then it goes up.

^^ By the way, that is through an aftermarket warranty company. They, unlike Mitsubishi Motors accept claims without question!

- Well, obviously if they can prove that there was excessive abuse causing the damange then they wont warranty it.

I don't know too many people who have issues with getting warranty work done through this company.

That's not for my S2 - it's for my Evo8. My S2000 is far beyond the hopes of any warranty

Visit your local dealership, ask them if they offer JM&A Warrantys.

Either I'm selling this car or spending the money on an extended warranty.
Well, they're replacing the pump. They told me once they have any issues with power steering, they start by replacing the pump. If thing's are not solved by that, then they will touch the rack.

Typically Mitsubishi doesn't offer loaner vehicles, however luckily the Mitsubishi Warranty Claims Rep was in the office. He approved me to get a loaner vehicle until mine is back running!

It was my choice between the Sonata or the Taurus. I decided to stick with Hyundai > Ford! 2007 Sonata V6... nice freaking car!

The fact that they don't normally give loaner vehicles? Or the fact that they auto replace the pump, then later diognose to see if it's the rack? Or the fact that I had to get approval from Mitsu Claims Rep to get the loaner? Or fact that they had to call Hertz to get me the rental? Or the fact that I had to choose Hyundai or Ford? Or fact that I was actually impressed by the Hyundai?
