The 2018 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 has been having long issues with swaying when going over 60 mph. I kept bringing it back to the Mitsubishi dealership and complaining but they kept saying they could not replicate the problem. One day on the highway, a few years after constantly complaining the right front tire made a sound and the whole car swayed to the left almost flipping over. Luckily I maneuvered off the highway into a grassy area on the side of the shoulder. Several cars avoided colliding with me. Even after the almost fatal incident and being towed, the dealership claimed the issue could not be replicated. Now out of nowhere, for a paint issue while the car was in the shop they determined they found the issue and it has to do with the sway bar and rear axle, and want to charge me $3,700.00
