RELATING TO THE ENGINE:MAINBEARING PROBLEM, THIS IS THE THIRD CAR OF THIS TYPE I HAVE OWNED (ALL VINS AND RECIEPTS AVAILABLE) THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. IT IS REFERREDD TO BY MANY AS "CRANKWALK". THE OIL PRESSURE TEST SHOW A NORMAL PRESSURE, YET THE #4 BEARING HAS BEEN DEPRIVED OF OIL AND SEEMS TO GRIND THE BEARING DOWN SLOWLY UNTIL THERE IS SO MUCH EXCESSIVE CLEARENCE THAT THE PISTON STARTS HITTING THE CYLINDER HEAD AND DESTROYS THE ENTIRE ENGINE ASSEMBLYL. I HAVE READ ONLINE POSTS AT HTTP://WWW.DSM.ORG FROM HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS, OF OWNERS OF THIS SAME CAR AND ITS TWIN - THE MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE GSX/GS-T - ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM AND WONDER WHY IF THERE IS SO MANY REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING, WHY HAVE THEY NOT BEEN RECALLED. *AK

CONSUMER TOOK AUTOMOBILE TO DEARLER FOR RECALL REPAIRS, AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH VEHICLE. NO RECALL WAS CHECKED OR REPAIRED. LATER ON, SUSPENSION FAILED, AND HAD AN ACCIDENT AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH. NO INJURIES. *AK

THE TRANSMISSION FAILED, THE VEHICLE STALLED WHEN STOPPED, WHEN IN GEAR WITH THE BRAKE ENGAGED, ALSO UPON ACCELERATION, THE POWER STEERING FAILED, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS INTERMITTENT, THE VEHICLE HAD BUCKED WHEN STOPPED IN PARK, AND HAD CONTINUED TO IDLE ERRATICALLY. TSB # 18-04-96 SCC *JB

THIS CAR HAS MANY FAILING PARTS, MINOR & MAJOR, WE DON'T THINK ITS NORMAL. THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN ONGOING SINCE SHORTLY AFTER AUTO WAS PURCHASED BY USE (12/99). OUR OUT-OF-POCKET EXPENSES THUS FAR APPROX. $2300.00. THIS CAR SEEMS TO BE A BIG LEMON! ANY INFORMATION WOULD BE MOST WELCOME. THANK YOU.*AK

"CRANK WALK". *AK

THE CONSUMER HEARD A LOUD NOISE AND FOUND LARGE AMOUNTS OF NUTS AND BOLTS ROLLING BACK AND FORTH ON BOTH PANELS IN THE TRUNK. BOTH PANELS WERE REPLACED IN THE REAR SEAT AREA. THE ENGINE STALLED, THERE WAS WHITE SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE EXHAUST BADLY. THE CHAIN BOLT VALVE, TIMING COVER, TIMING BELT, TIMING CHAIN/BELT, THE BALANCE SHAFT BOLT, AND THE FRONT AND REAR STRUTS WERE REPLACED. A NEW OIL PAN WAS PLACED IN THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE IDLED ABNORMALLY AND LOST POWER. THE VEHICLE NEEDED A NEW BATTERY, AND A LEFT FRONT HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. THERE WAS A KNOCKING ISSUE WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS. MR SCC *JB

ABS SYSTEM FAILED, CAUSING EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE. DEALER CAN'T FIX VEHICLE UNTIL MANUFACTURER GIVES APPROVAL. RECALL 94V199001 ON ABS WAS ISSUED BUT IT DIDN'T APPLY TO THIS VEHICLE . ALSO REPAIRED WATER PUMP. *AK

RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE 99V066003, TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER WHO SAID PART WAS OKAY. 13 MONTHS LATER, AXLE BROKE DUE TO LEFT BALL JOINT PROBLEM. 1 WEEK LATER RIGHT BALL JOINT BROKE, DEALER CHARGED FOR BOTH REPAIRS. *AK

WHILE DRIVING WOULD SMELL STRONG FUEL ODOR. THEN, WHEN STOPPING FOUND OUT THAT FUEL HAD BEEN LEAKING UNTIL EMPTYING HALF OF FUEL TANK. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER, AND TECHNICIAN SAID THATTHE CAUSE WAS A RUBBER FUEL LINE THAT BUSTED. *AK

FUEL TANK INLET HOSE LEAKED, WHEN FUEL TANK WAS FULL, GAS WOULD LEAK ON THE GARAGE FLOOR

I AM WRITING THIS TO YOU BECAUSE MY FRIEND RECENTLY HAD A PROBLEM WITH HIS ECLIPSE KNOWN AS "CRANK WALK" EVER SINCE THE 2ND GENERATION (95-99) TURBO ECLIPSE AND TALONS CAME OUT THEY HAVE BEEN WITH FAULTY CRANKSHAFTS. THE CRANKS EVENTUALLY WERE OUT THE THRUST WASHER AND SHIFT TO THE POINT THAT IT DESTOYS THE CRANK ANGLE SENSOR, SHUTTING OFF THE MOTOR. MITSUBISHI IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. ITS THEIR FAULT. THE VEHICLES ARE BAD FROM THE FACTORY BUT YET MY FRIEND HAS BEEN DENIED A WARRANTY CLAIM BECAUSE HE MADE A FEW UNREALTED PERFORMANCE MODIFICATIONS. PLEASE, I URGE YOU TO FORCE MITSUBISHI TO RECALL THE CARS WITH THESE BAD CRANKS BEFORE SOMEONE MOTOR SHUTS OFF AND AN ACCIDENT IS CAUSED. YOU KNOW HOW BAD MITZ IS WITH RECALLS AS WITH THE LEAKY TRANSFER CASE. PLEASE CHECK THIS WEBSITE. HTTP://WWW.ROADRACEENGINEERING.COM/WALKINGCRANKSHAFT.HTM FOR OTHER PEOPLES EXPEREIENCES WITH CRANKWALK FAILURES. ALTHOUGH I HAVE A 92 AWD TALON MYSELF (WITH A LEAKING TRANSFER CASE) I HAVE WITNESS THREE OF MY FRIENDS SUFFER CRANKWALK FAILURES. OF THEM ONLY ONE WAS ABLE TO GET HIS DEALER TO COVER THEM. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS BEFORE SOMEONE'S CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE THEY ARE DRIVING AND AN ACCIDENT IS CAUSED. ALL THREE OF MY FRIENDS ESCAPED INJURY BUT WHO KNOW WHEN SOMEONE ELSE WONT BE SO LUCKY. THANK YOU. *AK

HAD TO REPLACE ENGINE TURBO-CHARGER TWICE, HEADGASKET ONCE AND ENGINE BLEWOUT. *AK

I PURCHASED A VEHICLE FROM A PRIVATE PARTY THAT ENSURED ME THE VEHICLE WAS MECHANICLY SOUND. I DROVE THE VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES AND IT SHUT DOWN. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC AND FOUND OUT THE VEHICLE HAD BENT VALVES. THE REPAIR ESTIMATE WAS TOO OUTSTANDING. I ASKED THE SELLER IF THEY WOULD HELP IN ANY WAY AND THEY SAID "IT IS ALL YOUR PROBLEM NOW." IS THERE ANY HELP TO MY SITUATION? *AK

ENGINE BEARINGS WERE NOT RECIEVING OIL. ENGINE WAS INSPECTED AND FOUND TO BE FREE FROM BLOCKAGE AND DEBRIS. OIL PUMP WAS WORKING AS SPECIFIED. NO CAUSE COULD BE FOUND AS TO WHY BEARINGS WERE NOT RECIEVING OIL. BEARINGS WERE FOUND TO HAVE EXCESSIVE CLEARENCE THAT RESULTEDD IN THE PISTON BEENING ABLE TO PHYSICALLY HIT THE CYLINDER HEAD LEAVING EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE CYLINDER HEAD, REQUIRING THE ENTIRE ENGINE TO BE REPLACED. WHEN I CONTACTED DAIMLERCHRYSLER AND MY DEALER, I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WAS NOT A COMMON OCCURANCE SO THERE WAS NO RECALL ON IT. HOWEVER, I HAVE DISCOVERED ON WEBSITES SUCH AS WWW.DSM.ORG THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURANCE WITH THIS PARTICULAR MODEL.*AK

CAR WAS CHECKED FOR THE RECALL IN AUGUST 1999. WAS MAKING A TURN AT ABOUT 10MPH WHEN THE LEFT FRONT WHEEL FELL OFF. AS A RESULT OF THE LOWER BALL JOINT FAILURE, THE DRIVE SHAFT WAS DAMAGED AS WELL AND WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. *AK

MORNING OF INCIDENT, ON THE WAY TO WORK NOTICED SPEEDOMETER WASN'T WORKING. COMING BACK FROM LUNCH, SMELLED ODOR. PULLED OVER, POPPED HOOD, SAW SMALL FIRE LEFT SIDE, AND PUT OUT WITH FIRE EXTINGUISHER. TOWED TO DEALER, THEY MADE OEM SPEC. REPAIR, REPLACING DAMAGED COMPOENTS. I HAVE OLD SPEED SENSOR, IT LOOKS TO ME THE MOST LIKELY SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM. MY CONCERN IS THIS CAN HAPPEN AGAIN. I BELIEVE THE SPEED SENSOR CIRCUIT SHOULD BE FUSED. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF PURSUING THIS CONCERN WITH DAMLIERCHRYSLER (BOB DUNN, 612-553-2569). FYI, STATE FARM IS NOT COVERING MOST THE DAMAGE COST (~$850), CLAIMING THE DEFECTIVE COMPONENT (COMPREHENSIVE DOESN'T COVER THE DEFECTIVE PART, BUT OTHER PARTS DAMAGED IN FIRE) TO BE THE WIRING HARNESS, THE BIG TICKET ITEM, AND NOT THE SPEED SENSOR. SO FOR 2 REASONS I REALLY WANT TO DETERMINE THE ACTUAL CAUSE OF THE FIRE. FYI, THE ORIGINAL/BAD SENSOR. I RECEIVED FROM THE DEALER, PRESUMABLY THE SPEED SENSOR, APPEARS TO BE A 3 TERMINAL DEVICE, WITH THE MIDDLE PIN MISSING (BURNED UP?). I TRIED MEASURING THE RESISTANCE BETWEEN THE OTHER TWO TERMINALS, AND SAW ~800OHMS. THE SENSOR DAMAGE SUGGESTS COUPLED WITH MY OBSERVATION THAT THE SPEEDOMETER MALFUNCTION IMPLIES TO ME THAT THE SPEED SENSOR AND NOT THE HARNESS FAILED. I'M GUESSING THE SENSOR IS BULIT BY MITSUBISHI, AND DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH IT NEXT, E.G. WHO WOULD/SHOULD DO FAILURE ANALYSIS. I ALSO HAVE A NEW $600 WIRING HARNESS, MISSING JUST THE SPEED SENSOR FEMALE CONNECTOR HARNESS (THE MECHANIC SCAVANGED IT TO DO THE REPAIR), IT WOULD NO DOUBT BE OF SOME USE IN AN INVESTIGATION. IF YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION THAT WILL HELP ME CONVINCE THE STATE FARM ADJUSTER TO PAY MY CLAIM, PLEASE CONTACT ME: ACMIDDLETON@USWEST.NET. THANKS! *AK

I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY THAT I HAVE HAD MORE PROBLEMS THAN ANYONE COULD IMAGINE WITH THIS CAR. IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP OVER 20 TIMES. I HAVE HAD THE STARTER REPLACED, WATER PUMP, ALTENATOR, BRAKE PADS REPLACED TWICE AND THE ROTORS FOR WARPING AS WELL AS ONE OF THE CALIPERS. I HAVE ALSO HAD MORE THAN 4 BATTERIES GONE OUT A HOST OF ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS FROM THE DOOR LOCKS BURNING OUT AND BEING REPLACED AT LEAST TWICE THE INTRUMENT CLUSTER LIGHTS GOING OUT. I HAVE ALSO HAD TO HAVE THE DRIVE SPLINES(NOT SURE OF THE SPELLING) REPLACED DUE TO CRACKING AND BRAKING PROBLEMS WITH THEM. THE VALVE TAPLETS HAVE BEEN REPLACED DUE TO A LEAKING DOWN OF ALL 16 OF THEM, THE EXHAUST MAINFOLD WAS JUST REPLACED FOR A WARPING THAT CRACKED IT AND WAS CAUSING EXHAUST TO ESCAPE INTO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE DASH HAS BEEN REPLACED FOR CRACKING. THEN TAKING BACK OUT FOR A MESS UP. STILL WONDERING IF THE AIRBAGS WERE HOOKED BACK UP . HOPE I NEVER HAVE TO FIND OUT. THIS IS JUST A HINT AT SOME OF THE PROBLEMS I HAVE HAD. I'M VERY UPSET BECAUSE I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF MY CAR AND HAVE HAD ALL THE WORK DONE ON MY CAR BY THE DEALERSHIP TO PREVENT PROBLEMS DOWN THE ROAD SUCH AS TUNE UPS AND A HOST OF OTHER JOBS ON MY CAR DONE BEFORE THE RECOMMEND TIME. THANKS FOR ANY INFO YOU COULD GIVE ME . *AK

HE WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 25MPH ON A STREET, CAME TO A SUDDEN STOP, AND DRIVER'S SIDE WHEEL FELL OFF. THERE WAS NO PRIOR WARNING. *AK

THE FIRST PROBLEM I HAD WAS THE TRANSMISSION. IT DOESN'T GO INTO SECOND GEAR ANYMORE. WHEN YOU CAN GET IT INTO SECOND IT GRINDS VERY BADLY. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY IT WOULD JUST GO OUT UNLESS DEFECTIVE. SO NOW I HAVE TO SHIFT FROM FIRST TO THIRD GEAR AND BYPASS SECOND GEAR. THE SECOND DEFECT I HAVE FOUND IS THE WIPER WASHERS THAT ARE MOUNTED IN THE HOOD. THEY HAD LEAKED WATER DOWN THE SIDE OF THE HOOD WHICH RESULTED IN RUNING THE PAINT. *AK

TRANSMISSION LOCKED UP, INTERMITTENT SLIPPAGE, GEARS/TRANSMISSION UNABLE TO ENGAGE. MANUFACTURE AND DEALER FAIL TO COVER COST TO REPAIR.

VEHICLE WAS PARKED INSIDE OF THE PARKING LOT, AND CONSUMER NOTICED A QUART OF GAS ON THE PAVEMENT. ALSO, FELT A SMELL OF GAS COMING FROM INSIDE OF CAR GAS TANK WAS RECALLED TWO YEARS AGO, AND DEALER INSTALLED A BRAND NEW FUELTANK . *AK

LOWER ARM BALL JOINT FAILED PRIOR TO RECALL NOTICE CAUSING RIGHT FRONT TIRE TO RELEASE AND CAUSING THE FRONT END TO COLLAPSE TO THE GROUND. NLM

I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED LAST YEAR IN JULY WITH 36,000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE HAD NUMBEROUS PROBLEMS WITH MY ABS BRAKES. THE LATEST IS THE BRAKE LIGHT WAS COMING ON AND WHEN I TOOK IT INTO THE GARAGE FOR REPAIR, THEY SAID THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE MODULATOR ANTI LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM AT A COST OF OVER $1600. I HAD THE WORK DONE, BUT HOW COULD A CAR I HAVE HAD LESS THAN 1 YEAR REQUIRE SUCH INTENSIVE AND EXPENSIVE REPAIR.

WHILE DRIVING AT APPROX. 3O MPH , WITHOUT WARNING, FRONT CONTROL ARM BROKE. DEALER NOTIFIED AND REPAIRS WILL BE MADE AT CONSUMER'S COST OF $800.00. CAN NHTSA PROVIDE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS MATTER. *AK

WENT IN FOR THE TRANSFER CASE RECALL, HAD TO ORDER THE PART THROUGH THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT MYSELF, BECAUSE THEY SAID THEY WEREN'T RESPONSIBLE FOR IT. THEY COMPLETED THE RECALL, BUT IT NOW LEAKS LIKE A SIEVE, THEY ALSO USED AN IMPACT WRENCH TO PUT ON THE FILL PLUG, AND STRIPPED IT COMPLETELY. *AK

ENGINE BEARINGS WERE NOT RECIEVING OIL. ENGINE WAS REBUILT WITH NEW OEM CRANKSHAFT, BEARINGS, PISTONS, RODS, AND CYLINDER HEAD. NOT EVEN A MONTH LATER THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM HAPPENS AGAIN. ENGINE WAS INSPECTED AND FOUND TO BE FREE FROM BLOCKAGE AND DEBRIS. OIL PUMP WAS WORKING AS SPECIFIED. NO CAUSE COULD BE FOUND AS TO WHY BEARINGS WERE NOT RECIEVING OIL. BEARINGS WERE FOUND TO HAVE EXCESSIVE CLEARENCE THAT RESULTEDD IN THE PISTON BEENING ABLE TO PHYSICALLY HIT THE CYLINDER HEAD LEAVING EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE CYLINDER HEAD, REQUIRING THE ENTIRE ENGINE TO BE REPLACED. WHEN I CONTACTED DAIMLERCHRYSLER AND MY DEALER, I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WAS NOT A COMMON OCCURANCE SO THERE WAS NO RECALL ON IT. HOWEVER, I HAVE DISCOVERED ON WEBSITES SUCH AS WWW.DSM.ORG THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURANCE WITH THIS PARTICULAR MODEL.

WHEN DRIVING AT 30 MPH TRANSMISSION WENT OUT AND RPM VALVES ARE GOING UP AND THE VEIHICLE IS KICKING INTO GEAR AND SHIFTING VERY HARD. *AK

WHEN CLUTCH IS DEPRESSED, IT'S MUCH SOFTER THAN ORIGINAL AND METAL-SCRATCHING NOISE COMES FROM PULLEY SIDE OF ENGINE. SOMETIMES CLUTCH STAYS DEPRESSED AFTER LIFTING LEFT FOOT. SOMETIMES ENGINE STALLS IN STOP WHEN CLUTCH IS DEPRESSED. THE ISSUE IS WHEN CLUTCH IS DEPRESSED, IT PUTS A FORCE ON THE THE FLYWHEEL WHICH MOVES THE CRANKSHAFT, HENCE CRANK-END PLAY OR CRANKWALK.*AK

RIGHT AND REAR AXLE AND LF CONTROL ARM FAILED. NLM

TRANSFER CASE WAS REPAIRED UNDER RECALL. AFTER THE WORK WAS COMPLETED NOISE WAS HEARD INTERMITTENTLY. CONSUMER TOOK VEHICLE BACK TO DEALER. THE DEALER REINSPECTED VEHICLE AND INFORMED THE OWNER THAT THE DRIVESHAFT WAS HITTING THE TRANSFER CASE. THE MANUFACTURER HAS BEEN NOTFIED. *AK

THE BATTERY ONLY LAST 1 YEAR. THE COMPUTER GETS WET INSIDE SOMEHOW AND SHORTS OUT, THIS IS VERY COMMON ON THESE CARS. I HAVE SPOKEN TO A FEW OTHERS AND THEY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THERE IS A SEAL OR SOMETHING THAT IS NOT I PLACE.

BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS NEED REPLACEMENT. CONSUMER BELIEVES THIS IS NOT NORMAL FOR 40,000 MILES OF WEAR. DEALER NOTIFIED AND REFUSED TO REPAIR UNLESS COST GOES TO CONSUMER. ROTORS WERE REPLACED, BUT 1 WEEK AFTER REPAIRS, BRAKE PROBLEMS RETURNED. *AK *ML
