2012 Mitsubishi Eclipse Owners Manual - If the vehicle breaks down



If the vehicle breaks down

If your vehicle breaks down on the road, move to the shoulder and turn on the hazard warning flashers. If there is no shoulder, or the shoulder is not safe, drive in the right lane slowly, with the hazard lights flashing, until you come to a safe stopping place. Keep the flashers flashing. If the engine stops/fails

If the engine stops, there will be no power assist to the steering and brakes, making these difficult to use.

● The brake booster will not work, so the brakes will not grip well. The brake pedal will be harder to press than usual.

● Since there is no power steering assist, the steering wheel will be hard to turn.

When the engine fails at the intersection

Get help from your passengers, bystanders, etc. to push the vehicle and move it to a safe zone.
