been looking for an hour.. i know its new.. but dam.. not a dam thing.. guess its going in the trunk with the seat down. I dont see what aluminum would warp.. unless its crap aluminum.. i mean a snowboard is like 5 lbs? 4 of them are like 20 lbs? how can that warp a top?

 

I think it'll be fine...go for it and see what happens. You can always bring it in and make a huge fuss about it.

 

Your owners manual should say somewhere in there what the roof is rated to hold- it's usually around 100lbs or so if I recall, they don't like them to be top heavy or creasing the roof. good luck

 

thanks for the info.. I'll see what I can dig up

 

Here's my update.. Dude says no crossbars are available I said fine give me the luggage tray and cargo matts for the trunk. This was last friday - Saturday nothing - monday i call in and talk again. Dude says luggage tray doesn't isn't available I said go look at the website. Its there... Now its wednesday i get the call back saying it'll be in on Friday, i said both my luggage tray and cargo matt? he says no only 1 item. i said wait wait wait.. Your trying to give me a luggage tray in stead of cross bars? They said crossbars aren't available. I said Yes I know. You shold of known that before you sold me the car and not make false promises. he said wat we are doing is substituting ONE item for ONE item. I said the value is totally different. he says, wat we rated you for was 96 dollars. I said what you rated me for was a Ski Rack NOT crossbars.. therefore i would of came back at you with your Error regardless. he then tries to pull the aluminum roof wont take cross bars and I said, then why does the australian site sell the Thule Crossbars as an assessory?Then I go, you sold me a car with cross bars. There are no such things as crossbars in the "US" for this vehicle, therefore you dont know your product and owe me something of equal value. He said whats the australian website, I said I dont know off the top of my head, it shouldn't be that hard to find out. he says I'll look it up and call you back.

Damn it! If they can't provide me with crossbars then give me something(s) of equal value. Since they can't value it, compare to other sites. Not shaft me 50 bucks.. given that its only 50 bucks. I do not like how they have dealt with the situation hence the ******* i have become towards them.

Dont buy a car from a dealership that does NOT know anything abotu their product.

Its a shame.

 

HAHAHAHA! Great story! I've been through the same thing.

 

can anyone that works for mitsu confirm that crossbars are coming from the factory???// the 4th dude is now saying that they are making it.. well if they are i'm jsut going to wait and then when its like 240 bucks i'mma laugh at them and say you should of just given me what i asked for.. BAT TURDS!

 

You can get a snowboard rack for your outlander from Thule or Yakima. I have a roof rack with a snowboard attachement from Thule. You can also get a dedicated snowboard carrier as well, but the attachement works just as well if you ever decide to add a luggage or whatever Thule has to offer.

Unless you get the snowboard dedicated rack, it'll cost at least $300 for the setup. The crossbars alone cost about $150. Also, if you have season passes from your local mountain, sometimes they have deals with local vendors.

 

yea.. thanks.. it just a pain to argue with the dealership. this one in particular is a bucnh of liars and wat not nonsense.. trying to pull tricks. and when i catch them they are speechless with the I DONT KNOW.. can't FIND IT.

i'm going in tomorrow.. i'll make sure its over and done with then

 

OH btw.. SCREW PERUZZI MITSUBISHI.. by far the DUMBEST and IGNORANT SALES PEOPLE i've ever dealt with. They dont know their product, they screw u over as much as possible.. they LIE to your face.. and when you CATCH them they say.. I'll call you back.. or oh.. its just written wrong on the paper.. ITS NONSENSE..

DONt know if I can post this but.. yea.. Im venting.. DONT BUY from them SPread the word!
