Exhibit 99.2
Report on Management's Assertion on Compliance with
Minimum Servicing Standards Set Forth in the
Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers
Independent Accountants' Report
To the Board of Directors and Shareholder
Mitsubishi Motors Credit of America, Inc.
We have examined management's assertion, included in the accompanying
report tiltled Report of Management, that Mitsubishi Motors
Credit of America, Inc. (MMCA) complied with the minimum servicing
standards set forth in the Mortgage Bankers Association of America's
Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers (USAP)
except for minimum servicing standards I.4, III.3, III.4, V.2, V.3,
and V.4, which are inapplicable to servicing automobile loans,
during the year ended December 31, 1999, included in the accompanying
report titled Report of Management. Management is responsible for
MMCA's compliance with those requirements. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on management's assertion about MMCA's compliance
based on our examination.
Our examination was made in accordance with standards established by
the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and,
accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about
MMCA's compliance with those requirements and performing such other
procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe
that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our
examination does not provide a legal determination on MMCA's
compliance with specified requirements.
In our opinion, management's assertion that MMCA complied with the
aforementioned requirements during the year ended December 31, 1999,
is fairly stated, in all material respects.
