necessary, call for an
ambulance.Record all the details of the accident. Thiswill provide you with accurate records ofthe accident for discussions with yourinsurance company and other personswho may be acting on your behalf. Understand your repair
estimate before
approving repairs.Choosing the repair shop and the brandsof parts that they use on your vehicle isyour decision.
Ask for genuine Mits
ubishi Motors parts.
Many times, to save
money, your insur-
ance company will recommend imitationparts that do not meet the original specifi-cations of fit, finish, corrosion resistanceor workmanship.
The strength and integrity built into yourMitsubishi vehicle is the result of a specificdesign referred to as
“Energy Management”.
Individual body parts are designed to act asone unit in the event of an accident. Shockwaves are absorbed by protective panels orare channeled around the passenger compart-ment. This important
feature is possible
because high tensile
steel is used in
Mitsubishi panels and structural parts, some-thing that cannot be guaranteed by the manu-facturers of imitation parts. All GenuineMitsubishi body panels
and support brackets
are designed and constructed as importantprotection features in the event of an acci-dent. By replacing body pa
rts with imitations,
your vehicle may no longer meet originalequipment specifications.
