| 2001 | WHEELS:RIM | THE LEFT DRIVER SIDE RIM KEEPS BENDING, WHICH CAUSES A FLAT TIRE. I BOUGHT 3 RIMS ALREADY. ALWAYS WITH IN A WEEK THE RIM IS BENT. THE CAR MAKES A NOISE FROM THE FRONT END COMING FROM THE LEFT TIRE AND THERE ARE DEEP SCRATCH MARKS ON THE LOWER FRONT BY THE TIRE. AT SPEEDS OF 15-20 MILES AN HOUR IF I HIT A POTHOLE THE RIM BENDS AND THE WHOLE THING SHAKES EVEN WHEN I HIT THE BRAKE THE BRAKE PEDAL SHAKES BAKE AND FORTH. IF I KNEW THE RIM WOULD BE LIKE THIS AND I HAVE TO GO THROUGH ALL THIS TROUBLE OF TIRES AND RIMES COSTING $300.00 I WOULD OF NEVER BOUGHT THIS CAR.AFTER I HIT THE POT HOLE THE CAR START STEERING TO THE LEFT. AND THE SCRATCHES ON THE BOTTOM BY THE LEFT TIRE KEEP GETTING BIGGER AND BIGGER AND DEEPER |
| 2009 | STRUCTURE:BODY | THERE IS A HOLLOW OPENING BEHIND CARPET IN FLOOR UNDER GAS PEDAL. IN LESS THAN 10,000 MILES, A HOLE WORE THROUGH THE CARPET. NOW HEELS OF SHOES (JUST NORMAL WOMEN'S SHOES, NOT SPIKE HEELS!) GET STUCK WHILE DRIVING. AN ACCIDENT IS INEVITABLE IF THE PROBLEM IS NOT REPAIRED. I HAVE DRIVEN MANY OTHER MODEL CARS, MANY WITH WORN CARPETING, BUT NONE HAD A DESIGN FLAW LIKE THE 2009 MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE. I HAVE BEEN CLOSE TO CRASHING SEVERAL TIMES. I REPORTED IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, BUT THEY SAID IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY. *TR |
