| Model year | COMPONENT | Complaint |
| 2000 | TIRES | THE WHEEL WAS BENT AND CRACKED BY A MINOR RUT IN THE ROAD AND SOME MINOR DEBRIS, TIRE WAS BLOWN DUE TO CRACK AND BEND OF WHEEL (TIRESIZE: 17) |
| 2008 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | MY CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED STARTING. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE BATTERY SO I HAD THAT REPLACED, BUT UPON FURTHER INSPECTION IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT MY STARTER HAD GONE BAD. I HAD THE STARTER REPLACED IN AUGUST OF 2011 (THAT'S TOO SOON FOR A 2008). ON JULY 16, 2012 I HAD TO HAVE ANOTHER BRAND NEW STARTER INSTALLED IN MY ECLIPSE. TWO BRAND NEW STARTERS IN LESS THAN A YEAR IS UNACCEPTABLE AND IT MAKES IT WORSE THAT THE CAR IS A 2008. I FEEL LIKE MITSUBISHI NEEDS TO DO A RECALL ON THIS PART. *TR |
