2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse

FUEL MILEAGE IS BAD AND WHEN FILLING UP IF YOU CAN IT KEEPS CLICKING AND SMELLING LIKE FUEL INSIDE CAR. NO LIGHTING IN CAR AT ALL. HAD TO REPLACE SUSPENSION AS THE BOLTS WERE WORN. PAINT CHIPPING ALL OVER CAR. COOLING SYSTEM KEEPS FAILING AND SOMEHOW I HAVE WATER KEEPS COMING IN ON FLOOR BOARDS AND THE FLOOR IS SOAKED AND STINKS.

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.*AK

HI, I BOUGHT MY ECLIPSE IN SEPTEMBER 2003 AND A MONTH LATER ONE OF MY EXTERNAL FOG LIGHTS BROKE WITHOUT ANY REASON, I WENT TO THE DEALER AND TOLD ME THAT MUST BE A ROCK HITTING THE FOG LIGHT AND THAT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE NEW CAR WARRANTY, ALSO TOLD ME THE PRICE FOR REPLACEMENT WAS $160.00 WHICH IT SEEMS TO ME A RIDICULOUS PRICE FOR A FOG LIGHT SO I WENT BACK THINKING WAS MY BAD LUCK IT HAPPEN TO ME, NOW HERE I AM A YEAR AND HALF AFTER THE INCIDENT WITH MY FOG LIGHT STILL BROKEN SINCE I HAVE HAD NOT THE MONEY TO REPLACE IT. BUT NOW I AM SEEING A LOT OWNERS WITH THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM THAT MINE AND I THINK THOSE FOG LIGHTS ARE DEFECTIVE AND SHOULD BE REPLACED AT NOT COST TO THE OWNER. *CB

I HAD THE CAR, ABOUT FOR 5 TO 6 MONTHS, AND ONE DAY I WAS HEADING OUT TO A FRIENDS WHEN I REALIZED THAT MY FOG LIGHT WAS BUSTED. I KNEW I NEVER HIT ANYTHING OF THAT SORT OR HAD ANYTHING HIT IT. I TOOK IT TO THE MITSUBISHI DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID A ROCK MIGHT HAVE HIT IT. I WENT ONLINE TO WWW.NEWECLIPSE.ORG, THAT IS THE CAR CLUB FOR ECLIPSE OWNERS AND YOU GO UNDER PROMBLEM REPORTS AND YOU SEE THAT MANY PEOPLES FOG LIGHTS HAVE JUST BUSTED. EVEN IF A ROCK WOULD HAVE HIT IT, THEN IT SHOULD HAVE WITH STOOD IT. AND MOST OF THE COMPLAINTS SAY THAT THE MITSUBISHI TEAM STATES THAT A ROCK MUST HAVE HIT IT. IF YOU COULD PLEASE CHECK ON THIS, THANKS. *AK
