NHTSA complaint #11062091 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL FROM MITSUBISHI ON THE PASSENGER SUN VISOR REQUIRING A TETHER STRAP. I CALLED THEIR TOLL FREE NUMBER TO LOCATE A DEALER TO INSTALL THE TETHER STRAP AS DIRECTED BY THE NOTICE. MITSUBISHI DOES NOT HAVE A DEALER IN TUCSON AND INFORMED ME WE NEEDED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A PHOENIX DEALER, OVER A 100 MILES AWAY FOR THE REPAIR. THE COST OF GAS AND THE TRAVEL TIME (OFF WORK OR MISSING SCHOOL) IS HIGHER THAN THE PARTS AND LABOR FOR .5 OF AN HOUR LABOR. THEY HAVE NOT MADE ARRANGEMENTS WITH A LOCAL TUCSON CAR REPAIR FACILITY TO PERFORM THIS RECALL, NOR DID THEY OFFER TO SEND ME THE PARTS FOR SELF INSTALLATION. THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY POOR RESPONSE TO A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE. CAN YOU ASSIST AS I KNOW THERE ARE MORE OF THE SAME VEHICLE IN TUCSON.

2000 MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE WITH A SHOCK RUPTURE DUE TO RUST. CONSUMER STATES THAT IT IS RARE THAT RUST IN THAT AMOUNT HAPPEN ON THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. SHE STATES THAT THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT GOING TO INVESTIGATE HER CLAIMS. *KB THE CONSUMER DISCOVERED 3 RECALLS FOR HER MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR FOR HER VEHICLE. THE CONSUMER STATED SHE HAD ALREADY EXPERIENCED THE FAILURES OF THE RECALLS. THE COLUMN SWITCH WAS REPLACED BECAUSE THE UNIT WOULD NOT SELF-CANCEL NOR WOULD IT CANCEL MANUALLY. THE SWITCH WOULD NOT RESET IN AN OFF POSITION WHICH CAUSED THE LIGHTS TO REMAIN ON ONCE THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN TURNED OFF. THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATED FREQUENTLY, EVEN WHEN TRAVELING ON A STRAIGHT HIGHWAY. THE CONSUMER ALSO HAD REPEATED PROBLEMS WITH THE ENGINE NOT STARTING AND ALWAYS ASSUMED THE PROBLEM WAS THE BATTERY WHICH THE CONSUMER HAD REPLACED MULTIPLE TIMES.

NHTSA complaint #10195949 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
SUN ROOF EXPLODED AND SHATTERED WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH ON A TWO LANE HIGHWAY ON A CLEAR NIGHT, NO ROCKS ON THE ROAD WAY, AND ONE VEHICLE TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY HALF A MILE AHEAD WHEN MY GLASS SHATTERED. WHEN THE CLOSED SUN ROOF EXPLODED AND SHATTERED IT SOUNDED LIKE A SOMETHING FELL FROM THE SKY ON THE ROOF OF MY VEHICLE, I PULLED OVER TO CHECK WHAT HAD HAPPENED, BUT THERE WAS ONLY THE SHATTERED GLASS ALL OVER THE ROOF AND TRUNK OF MY CAR. I INSPECTED THE SHATTERED GLASS LAYING ON THE ROOF, INTERIOR SLIDE AND TRUNK OF MY VEHICLE FOR ANYTHING THAT MIGHT HAVE CAUSED THE SUN ROOF SHATTER, YET THERE WAS NOTHING THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THIS DAMAGE. FORTUNATELY THE INTERIOR ROOF SLIDE WAS CLOSED, STOPPING THE EXPLODING SHATTERED GLASS FROM INJURING MY DAUGHTER AND I SITTING IN THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEATS BELOW THE SUN ROOF. THIS IS A SEVERE SAFETY DEFECT WHICH COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY AND/OR DEATH IF THE INTERIOR ROOF SLIDE IS NOT CLOSED.

DT: THE PROBLEM BEGAN IN MAY. WHILE IT WAS RAINING AND THE OWNER WAS TRYING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN, THE STEERING WHEEL TIGHTENED UP. THE OWNER HAD TO STOP THE CAR AND TURN THE WHEEL REALLY HARD TO TURN. IT FELT LIKE THE CAR DID NOT HAVE POWER STEERING. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED MOSTLY IN THE RAIN. THE OWNER TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THEY WILL REPAIR IT, BUT IT WILL COST THE OWNER. THERE WAS RECALL 00V225000 BUT THE OWNER'S VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE OWNER CONTACTED MITTSUBISHI, BUT THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING SINCE THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS CAR. THE OWNER WILL HAVE IT REPAIRED TOMORROW. ALSO, HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS. THIS BEGAN LAST MONTH. THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORKED JUST FINE UNTIL THE OWNER SHUTS THEM OFF. THE OWNER DIDN'T KNOW WHEN THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WILL ACTUALLY SHUT OFF. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR OLDER MODELS.

I GOT IN MY CAR TO GO SOMEWHERE, SHUT THE DOOR, AND THE SUNROOF COMPLETELY SHATTERS. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP (AN ACTUAL MITSUBISHI DEALERSHIP AS OPPOSED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE WHICH WAS A CHEVY DEALERSHIP) WHERE THE MANAGER SAID HE HAD NEVER HEARD OF THIS AND THAT IT SHOULDN'T BE COVERED BY WARRANTY BECAUSE IF IT WERE FAULTY GLASS THEN IT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED MUCH SOONER. I RESPONDED BY ASKING IF THAT IS TRUE, THEN ALL OTHER WARRANTY ISSUES HAPPEN RIGHT AWAY AND NOT OVER TIME? IF SO, THEN WHY HAVE WARRANTIES THAT LAST FOR YEARS? HE SEEMED UPSET THAT I WOULD QUESTION HIM ABOUT IT AND SAID THAT EVEN IF I CALLED CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT IT WOULD NOT BE REPLACED BY THE COMPANY UNDER WARRANTY. I ALSO BROUGHT TO HIS ATTENTION THE LIABILITY ISSUED ASSOCIATED WITH SHATTERING SUNROOFS THAT COULD BE SOMETHING ALONG THE LINES OF BRIDGESTONE/FORD. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE AND FIND SEVERAL OTHERS HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUES DATING BACK TO THE EARLY 90'S WITH THE 3000GT. HOW CAN I GET THE COMPANY TO REPLACE THIS?

NOT ONLY DO I HAVE THE AGGREVATION OF BENT RIMS AND FLAT TIRES, AND FINANCIAL HARDSHIP ON THIS, MY LEFT SIDE OF THE CAR DOESN'T ALIGN TO THE RIGHT. WATER LEEKS IN ON THE LEFT SIDE. SOMETIMES THE HEATER BLOWS OUT COOL AIR. THE SUNROOF SHAKES WHEN OPENING. I ALREADY HAD A MANUFACUTERS DEFECT IN MY STRUT ON THE LEFT SIDE. I HAVE SCTRACHES ON THE LEFT SIDE FOM THE CAR SCRAPPING THE GROUND WHEN I MAKE A RIGHT HAND TURN. I HAD TO HAVE THE COOLING SYSTEM REPLACED THE FIRST WEEK I FINANCED IT.MY HOOD WON'T OPEN AND MY HEADLIGHTS FAIL CAUSING ME TO DIRVE ONLY WITH THE FOG LIGHTS. ALL THESE ISSUES ARE THE SAME AND CONSTANT SINCE I PURCHASED THIS LEMON.
NHTSA complaint #10118406 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
FUEL RELAY SWITCH ON MY MITSUIBISHI ECLIPSE 1997 GS HAS FAILED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. IN ORDER TO GET MY CAR TO START, I HAVE TO GO UNDER THE HOOD, "WIGGLE" THE RELAY SWITCH AND LIGHTLY TAP ON THE TOP OF IT. THIS FUEL RELAY HAS BEEN REPLACED BY DEALER AND THE PROBLEM CONTINUES TO OCCUR, EVEN CAUSING THE CAR TO GO DEAD DURING TRAVEL. DEALERSHIP CLAIMS THEY DO NOT KNOW WHY IT OCCURS. (20+ OCCURRENCES) ENORMOUS AMOUNTS OF "BLUISH" GAS FUMES COMING FROM THE TAIL PIPE, REGARDLESS OF IDLE OR IN MOTION. (ALWAYS OCCURRING) SUNROOF STICKS (5-10 OCCURRENCES) BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER WINDOWS RATTLE WHEN CAR IS IN MOTION AND AS THE DOOR IS BEING SHUT (CONTINUOUS OCCURRENCE) CLUTCH FAILURE, HARD SHIFTING (1 OCCURRENCE).
NHTSA complaint #10107645 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
HAVE A 2003 ECLIPSE AND MANY MANY PROBLEMS SINCE PURCHASING. AFTER REGULAR SCHEDULED TIRE BALANCE AND ROTATION, TOOK THE CAR BACK BECAUSE OF SHAKING AT 50-60 MPH, THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THE RIMS WERE BENT, AND THEY WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED, AND THEY DID (RIGHT AFTER BALANCE AND ROTATING? WOULD THEY BALANCE IF THE RIMS WERE BENT?) HAD MY CAR IN NUMEROUS TIMES FOR MOISTURE IN MY WINDOWS WHEN PUTTING THEM DOWN AND BACK UP, A LOT OF MOISTURE AND BAD VISIBILITY, REPLACED STRIPS WHICH HELPED MOLD SMELL, BUT CAN'T FIX THE MOISTURE. B/C OF THE BAD VISIBILITY I AM EXTRA CAREFUL, BUT MY CAR SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. RECENTLY THE MOLDING ON THE WINDSHIELD WAS COMING LOOSE, THE DEALERSHIP FIXED IT (SENT IT TO A WINDOW PLACE) AND SINCE THEN I HAVE A FILM ON MY WINDSHIELD WHICH MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE...I HAVE CLEANED THE GLASS NUMEROUS TIMES, MY WIPERS WERE FAIRLY NEW, MITSBUSHI WOULDN'T LOOK AT IT WHEN I TOOK IT IN FOR ANOTHER RIM REPLACEMENT. MY CAR STILL SHAKES, MY WINDOWS AND WINDSHIELD HAVE BAD VISIBILITY PROBLEMS, AND NOW MY SUNROOF BUTTON HAS POPPED OUT AND WILL NOT OPEN UNLESS I HOLD IT IN FIRST.

WE BOUGHT A "CERTIFIED" CAR FROM LIBERTY AUTO PLAZA (ON THE WINDOW STICKER IT INDICATED THAT IT WAS CERTIFIED AND THAT THERE WAS A 57 POINT SAFETY INSPECTION DONE AND IT PASSED, AS WELL AS A 3 MONTH 3,00 MILE WARRANTY) 2 DAYS AFTER HAVING THE CAR, WE WERE EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH POWER STEERING AND THE BRAKES, SO WE BROUGHT IT IN TO BE CHECK OUT. THERE ARE OVER $3,000 WORTH OF PARTS TO MAKE IT A SAFE CAR, NOT INCLUDING THE LABOR AT $95 PER HOUR TO FIX. THEY WERE EVEN BAFFLED BY CERTAIN THINGS, SO THEY SUGGESTED WE TAKE IT TO THE LIBERYVILLE MITSUBISHI DEALERSHIP AND HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK DONE AND THEY WOULD PAY FOR IT. MAJOR STUFF WAS FOUND HERE, ENGINE MOUNT WAS BUSTED AND LEAKING FLUID, POWER STEERING LINKAGE AND BUSHINGS WERE SHOT AND THE RESERVOIR TANK WAS CRACKED, TIE RODS WERE BLOWN, THE BRAKES WERE SO "WARPED" THAT IS WHAT WAS CAUSING THE CAR TO SHAKE WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKE. BACK TO WHERE WE BOUGHT THE CAR, THERE WERE PAPERS THAT WERE FORGED AND I DIDN'T SIGN, AND THEY SOLD ME A GAP INSURANCE POLICY AND NEVER SUBMITTED THE POLICY OR A CHECK TO GET THE ADDENDUM TURNED INTO A POLICY, SO THERE IS FRAUD. WE JUST WANT THEM TO TAKE THE CAR BACK AND REIMBURSE US FOR OUR EXPENSES. THE CAR IS PARKED AND NOT DRIVABLE.

I WOULD LIKE TO FILE A COMPLAINT REGARDING MY MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE GTS 2003. THE PRODUCT HAS NOT PERFORMED WELL BECAUSE DURING THE SIX MONTHS THAT I HAVE HAD MY BRAND NEW CAR, I HAD TO BRING IT FOR SEVERAL REPAIRS. FIRST, THE CAR WENT TO THE SHOP AT MITSUBISHI BOSAK CHICAGO FOR A LOOSE BOLT, SECOND THE CAR HAD A LEAK ON THE COOLANT SYSTEM, THIRD THE WHEEL WAS NO LONGER ALIGNED, AND FOURTH THE REAR DEFROSTER DOES NOT DEFROST PROPERLY. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED OF THAT MATTER BECAUSE ONE OF THE REASON I INVESTED MY MONEY IN BUYING A BRAND NEW CAR AND CHOOSING MITSUBISHI SO I DONT HAVE TO SPEND MORE TIME IN THE SHOP FOR REPAIR AND SPEND MORE CASH. THE CAR WAS ONLY SIX MONTHS OLD AND ALREADY EXPERIENCING A LOT OF PROBLEMS, NOW THE CAR HAS BEEN A YEAR AND I BROUGHT THE CAR BACK TO MITSUBISHI BOSAK DEALER TO HAVE THE REAR LIGHT FIXED BECAUSE WATER WAS GOING INSIDE AND STILL WAITING TO HAVE THE SUNROOF TO BE FIX BECAUSE IT DOES NOT OPERATE PROPERLY AND THE AXLE OF THE CAR NEEDS TO BE REPLACE. THEY WOULDNT REPLACE IT RIGHT AWAY BECAUSE THE MECHANIC STATED THAT WE HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE ITEM TO BE DELIVERED. WHAT IF DURING THAT TIME OF WAIT SOMETHING HAPPEN TO THE CAR? (MAY GOD FORBID) I HAVE BEFORE TRY TO COMPLAIN WITH THE MITSUBISHI HEADQUARTER IN CALIFORNIA, BUT THE PERSON WOULDNT DO ANYTHING. I FEEL VERY UNSAFE OF MY CAR. I THINK THAT THE COMPANY SHOULD CHECK THEIR ENTIRE PRODUCT BEFORE SELLING IT TO THE PUBLIC. DRIVING MY ECLIPSE IS SOMETHING THAT I FEAR BECAUSE I NEVER KNOW SOMETHING MIGHT HAPPEN BECAUSE OF THE CARS DEFECT.
