I just got a notice from Mitsubishi today about the Charger and DC/DC converter issue. I'm pretty computer illiterate, and I can't seem to be able to bring the scan over, and The TSB is illegible on my letter, BUT, here's the body of the letter:
AFFECTED VEHICLES
MODEL 2012 i-MIEV
Dear Terry D Richards
Mitsubishi Motor North America Inc. has determined that due to potential low durability of the capacitors on the circuit boards in the On-Board Charger (OBC), the capacitors may short and cause the high voltage fuse in the Motor Control units (MCU) to blow. As a result, the drive battery may not be charged by regular charging and the 12V battery may not be charged. When this occurs, the power unit and 12 v battery warning lights will turn on.
To ensure your continued satisfaction with your vehicle, Mitsubishi is extending the warranty for the OBC on your vehicle to 10 years / unlimited miles.
If you have already had the OBC replaced on your vehicle and have paid for the repair, you may send you original receipts and / or other adequate proof of payment to the following address for reimbursement consideration:
Mitsubishi Customer Relations Department, P.O. Box 6400, Cypress, CA 90630-0064
Please keep a copy of this notification with your vehicle's warranty book for future reference. If you have any questions, please contact us:
