My daughter was driving the eclipse, she turned onto a side street and the car spun out of control causing her to hit a parked car. the passenger side tire is sideways, i have pictures of the car after the accident. my insurance company totaled the car. the police are saying she was at fault for the accident. there is a recall on the vin number.
My 2008 eclipse had an open recall on issues with abs for over a year. after a year i was finally notified that the parts were available to fix the issue. after much hassle dealing with the local deal i took my car in for repair. the service center claimed to have fixed the problem. however now my car is no leaking brake fluid from the abs. i contacted customer service and was told i need to take the car to a service center to be looked at. normally no issue that the local dealership recently closed and the next closest one is over 100 miles away. as my car is leaking brake fluid it has been deemed unsafe to drive. i was told i would have to pay to have the car towed to a service center to be looked at but they would not guarantee that it would be fixed. as this is a known problem with abs system and an open recall this is totally unacceptable. customer service told me it was not their concern on getting the car to be fixed and it did not matter ...

I received a safety recall notice from mitsubishi motors in july of 2015. the notice is regarding a defect with the antilock breaking system hydraulic unit. the letter says i will be notified when the parts are available. i have called the local mitsubishi dealership and they say the parts are not reading i am still on a wait list. when operating the car sometimes the breaks go quite far down towards the floor. it has been too long to wait for these parts given there is a defect with the brakes.

My mitsubishi eclipse '08 during the year 2015, i have been having problems with my brakes when i drive over bumps quickly or hit a dip in the road. each time this happens, my brakes practically lose all pressure. i had to pull over to the side of the road and pump my brakes a number of times to get the pressure back up. i have brought my vehicle three times to a private brake company and had my brake system inspected and brake pads replaced first and later had the brake system inspected in the latter visits. when i still continued to have this problem, i brought my vehicle to the dealership and was informed that there definitely has been a recall on the mitsubishi eclipses. they told me the problem with my brakes was because there was a fluid leak from the master cylinder into the brake booster. i paid out of my own pocket to have whatever needed fixed in my braking system fixed by them in october 2015. approximately less than four months later, i was on the freeway (and of course people drive fast and there were cars ...
Abs recall. notified of recall warning of possible " reduction in braking performance, increasing a risk of crash without warning". notified of recall in july 2015. manufacturer refuses to to provide th required repairs unless " there is problem that can be verified by a dealership". how can get the required repairs before i experience a brake failure?
I received a safety recall notice in july of 2015. it is now five months later and they still haven't fixed the issue. my brake pedal sometimes doesn't work properly and makes a sucking sound when the pedal is released. i called mitsubishi and they said to bring it to a dealership for a road test and that my brakes would be flushed and checked. i made an appointment with the dealership 50 miles away and was turned away upon arriving because they can't fix the problem. my car is unsafe and mitsubishi will not fix it.
The brakes on my vehicle are not working as they should. abs system was recalled by mitsubishi back in july, and they have yet to fix the problem. i have been very close to getting in to accidents due to the brakes not working properly, with my young son in the vehicle. when i spoke to mitsubishi they informed me that the remedy is not yet available. i was also told that if i got the brakes fixed myself, there is the possibility that i would not get reimbursed. i would like to get this fixed immediately before the brakes give out all together but due to a fault of the manufacturer, i am not willing to put out my hard earned money and not get it back. my car does not stop as it should while driving. the brake peddle does not function correctly. please fix this issue or point me in the right direction.

For a month, i've noticed that my brake fluid level was decreasing rapidly and that i had to refill my brake fluid once a week. on 9/22/2015, suddenly my brake pedal had to go to the floor before i could start slowing down. i took my car to a mechanic on 9/24/2015. he said that my abs pump was leaking really bad and he cannot find/buy the part anywhere and that i had to take it to the dealership. i took it to a mitsubishi dealership that same day and told them what i was experiencing and what i was told. they kept the car that day and ran tests and confirmed with me in the morning of 9/25/2015 that it was the abs pump, which is part of a recent recall. the service manager at the dealership told me that he would be in contact with their corporate office about what to do next to get my vehicle fixed and to give me a rental car in the mean time (i couldn't get to work on 9/24 or 9/25 because i live an hour from work). in the evening of 9/25, the service ...
