If you have a Mitsubishi (especially a DSM), this message is for you!


I was just in at Renner Mitsu picking up parts from Marilyn and Amy, and was informed that they are shutting down COMPLETELY and PERMAMENTLY as of this Friday 5/11/2007.

If you need ANY parts between now (tuesday 5/8/07) and Friday (5/11/07), you must order between tomorrow (5/9/07) and thursday AM (5/10/07) with overnight delivery to receive any parts before they close down.

This is a major blow to the DSM community whom relied on Renner Mitsu's part department for taking care of our DSM's needs. The employees were notified that they were closing on Monday May 7th in the evening.


We will now need to go through Griffin Mitsubishi in Menomonee Falls, or Safro Mitsubishi for replacement parts. Both locations SHOULD accept the Club DSM parts discount if you notify them.

So, make a list of things you need, and order them NOW!!!

Whoa, that sucks!!! :mad:

Don't forget about Porcaro Mitsu in Racine. Its a little bit of a drive, but they have always treated me well and also honor the Club DSM discount.

damn, that does suck.
Any word if the employees are moving to the other dealerships?
I liked the first name basis / knowing their shìt / not having to explain that "yes I know I have this car, but I want this part #"

blehhhh

Amy is living off her husband and will be just doing stuff with her horsies, and Marilyn doesn't know what she is going to do yet.

Yeap, my thoughts exactly, the gaylants aren't too too bad, it seems those are the 2 cars that Renner can sell.

yeah, there last day is Friday, i think. It suxs alot of really good people work there and are out of a job now. My dad worked there for 20+ years when it was Oldsmobile and i worked there when i was going to school. alot of history and memories there. Sad to see it go. Also means no more using the tire machine for free anymore.

Is this still true? A girl I work with took her car there today for a body shop estimate and they were open and didn't say anything to her about this.

Renner's body shop is not in the Mitsubishi dealership, it's in the building next to it, (Kia dealership).

Exactly, Renner didn't die on thier own. The people at Don Jacobs (me) slayed them.
