Doesn't run and been sitting for about 5 years after MCU went bad, see this thread for details: https://myimiev.com/threads/2012-se-not-starting-dealer-want-almost-8k-for-bad-mcu-inverter.4215/ Feel free to message me if interested in parts or to make an offer on whole vehicle.

Very long time since I posted, but Mitsubishi was no help and they assured me that there were no related recalls. I'm still in the Seattle area and the car has been sitting here ever since. If anyone in the area is interested in it feel free to send me a message/offer.

Just got sad news from the dealership that my 2012 I Miev SE has a bad Motor Control Unit Inverter. They informed me the warranty timed out in May even though it is still under 60k miles. The dealer said they were able to drive the vehicle around and had to reach out to their expert to find out...

I haven't shown up here in a while, but I have some questions about the heated seats to see if there is a problem with mine. My heated Seats seem to come on briefly after about 5 minutes for about a minute or so and then seem like they turn off for another 5 min or so, then repeat. Being that...

Perfect, thank you for alleviating this concern! I am glad this community here exists :)

I finally have my MiEV and am loving it :) it is such a fun little car and a big head turner! One of my first concerns is a noise that it makes when charging. After plugging the car in it makes the fan sound for a short burst of time and then stops (I believe this is normal). After that it...

Looks like it goes until the end of July: http://www.myelectriccarforums.com/mitsubishi-brings-back-10000-rebate-on-i-miev/

Noticed this response a bit too late, unfortunately mine is still sitting in Oregon some problem with the transportation company that was supposed to have already picked it up :( I like your strategy, I had my Japanese girlfriend with me urging me to walk away when they wouldn't give me the...

I figured I should follow up with the details since there is a little interest. I have since spoken with the dealership I bought my 2012 from and he thinks this person is not being honest for whatever reason. I took out the names and email addresses but the messages have not been modified. Also...

Thanks for pointing out my Math error in the original post and I fixed it. I ended up going with the AeroVironment charge station after seeing that it appears to be fairly widely used by businesses/dealerships (you can see a bunch of images of the same one rebranded for dealerships). I also...

I still have a little bit of range anxiety that I have to get over before making a trip that long :P Is this the meetup group at the coffee shop I found from a quick google search? When Tue, June 11, 6:30pm – 9:00pm Where Mosaic Community Coffee House, 4401 NE 2nd Ave, Seattle (directly behind...

I actually live in the Seattle area, but they were also telling me about this "Oregon buyer". The funny thing is after you bought that I ended up getting one shipped up from Eugene, Oregon for almost the same deal I had setup with Auburn for the same color/package. So why would someone from...

I could set you up with a dealership that was going to ship me one from Utah and give you the details of the deal I was going to have and maybe try to pass it along. I could have gotten it cheaper from Utah but didn't want to deal with the shipping myself and had a dealer close to me handle...

Damn you jray!!! You bought the car out from under me! :P I know you are talking about the dealership in Auburn and I test drove that Car on Friday, went camping, and came back to buy it on Monday morning. They told me it was sold late Sunday night and tried to sell me your used silver one...

I am considering on getting one of these 3 with Amazon Prime shipping since my MiEV will arrive here on Friday. any suggestions between the AeroVironment, Siemens, and GE listed below? AeroVironment Residential EV Charger, 15' cable (Level 2 EVSE-RS: 7.2kW, 30A) $949 - 150 = $799 (coupon code...
