That's going to hurt them, especially on models where gas mileage is the selling point. Not here, where the EPA rating is simply a benchmark to frame real numbers against. Oddly, none of the stories I saw mentioned specific models- or which Nissan models were affected. They could very well be JDM platforms, but the Mitsubishi name is going to take a hit- and that's a great time to be looking to buy one.
