<i>It remains to be seen whether anybody here realizes that the caps in all these inverters will require replacement as preventive maintenance. Don't bet your mortgage on it.

Oh man, this is gonna be so much fun to watch in another few years with all those M-7s running with dead cars. Hehehehehehe.
I'm sure someone will blame Mitsubishi for it, too...
I wonder how well the inverter does with dead caps? It might try its best, or it might just decide that things are too screwed up even try running.
Of course, they tend to drop off slowly at first, so I bet first you'll see cars with dead propulsion systems ("Stupid computer won't take power again!!!"), then as they get worse, lots of fun problems in the HVAC systems ("Stupid computer keeps turning things on and off randomly!")
Expect to hear a LOT of 'stupid computer!' problems when these things start failing. Everyone loves blaming the stupid computer, when it's generally NOT the computer at fault....
