2008 Mitsubishi Endeavor Reviews, Pricing & Specs
Write a review
Introduced in 2004, the Mitsubishi Endeavor was a hit when it debuted. For 2008, traction control has become standard, along with some minor trim-level changes. Reviewers like the Endeavor, but feel that Mitsubishi has let time stand still with this model, and its competitors - Ford Edge, Mazda CX-7, Hyundai Santa Fe, and the standbys, the Honda Pilot and Nissan Murano - have not.
The only engine is a low-horsepower (225) but high-torque (250 pound-feet) 3.8-liter V6 that transmits power through an "old-fashioned" four-speed automatic transmission. Reviewers, however, were constantly surprised at the performance of this "antiquated" powertrain. 0-60 comes up in a respectable 7.6 seconds, faster than the more-powerful Honda Pilot. Other reviews found the "old" four-speed automatic smooth and well-behaved. The manual shifting capability allowed reviewers to force downshifts when the automatic mode hesitated. The downside, however, comes at the gas pump, with the EPA estimating mileage of 15/22 mpg city/highway for the front-wheel driver and 15/19 mph for the all-wheel-drive trim. The competition has moved on.
Handling is "well-behaved" for this class of car-based SUV. Mitsubishi builds the Endeavor on the same architecture it uses for the Galant sedan, Eclipse coupe, and Spyder convertible. Of course, the extra height of an SUV means it's bound to lean a little, but it's not excessive, and the overall ride is comfortable. While not a true off-roader, it performs above average on mildly rutted dirt roads. Steering, although slow for some reviewers, was rated as well-balanced for everyday driving. The brakes have good stopping control.
The Endeavor's cabin found favor with reviewers, who deemed it spacious and comfortable. The rear seats have ample room for two heads and four legs, though three adults will have to squeeze to fit back there. One of the major criticisms leveled at the Endeavor is its lack of third-row seating - something most of the competition flaunts. Another problem is the lack of cargo space, given the Endeavor's larger dimensions than its rivals. Maximum cargo capacity is 76.4 cubic feet, much less than the Honda Pilot and Ford Explorer offer.
Safety is a strong point, as the Endeavor has received the highest crash-test ratings. Along with traction control, Endeavors come equipped with dual-stage front airbags, front-seat-mounted side airbags, and side head curtain airbags, which remain inflated after a rollover accident.

The Milage was advertised in kilometers instead of the actual miles. A big difference between kilometers and miles. Jul 08, 2022
What users have asked
I own a 2008 Mitsubishi Endeavor AWD. It is an excellent vehicle. I am advised the Endeavor has been discontinued and Mitsubishi no longer has vehicles of his size, only smaller vehicles. I am disappointed. Is this he end of the line for vehicles of this larger but not largest size with Mitsubishi
No more Endeavors or comparable sized vehicles from Mitsubishi after 2011?

2008 Endeavor whistling noise while decelerating
sounds like a faint jet engine whine/whistle. It's hardly noticeable when you first start driving, but it slowly gets louder the longer you go, in which case you can notice it pretty easily. It is MOST noticeable when you are coming to a stop and it's down shifting. With each shift down the whine goes from a higher to lower pitch. I comute daily on the interstate and really notice it when I let off the break to slow down. (I don't have to touch the brake for that to happen) and doesn't do it when idling. Just after a higher rate of speed and start to slow down. Any ideas?

Sunroof Leaking
SUV has 54000 miles - have never used my sunroof and keep the cover pulled. Appeard that sunroof does not completely close but dealer said it was okay. Went thru a car wash that just sprays (no brushes) and water poured into the vehicle from the sunroof. After soaking up the water, I opened the sunroof so the air could help dry this area and then sunroof would not close for several days but does not close completely. The water stained my headliner top and side of SUV as well as the sunroof cover (a real mess). I took my car to dealer under warranty plus extended warranty and they state a sunroof needs general maintenance every 12000 miles and they will not cover. I have had numerous sunroofs in the past and never had I been told about the routine general maint. every 12000 miles (cost is $95). How accurate is this info? Thank You
