1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse electrical complaints
Page 2 of 3: complaints 11 to 40 of 46, newest first, as owners wrote them.
After three visits to the dealer (sometimes by tow truck), they repeatedly indicated they could not duplicate the problem. On the fourth visit, the engine control unit was replaced. The car would shut down while driving at varying speeds with no prior warning. The problem reoccurred in november of 2000. The car is currently at the dealer where they once again claim they can not duplicate the problem. The engine oil gasket cover was replaced on 12/29/98. Subsequent complaints of an oil leak were dismissed as not causing the presenting problem or I was told there was no oil leak despite providing documentation from other repair establishments. However, after the warranty period, an oil leak was diagnosed on 9/19/00. These are serious safety concerns that must be addressed.
While drving at speeds of 40mph and over vehicle will shutdown and die. Dealer has inspected vehicle several times, and has not been able to duplicate or correct the problem.
I have had to replace 3 brand new batteries which were still under warranty, because they were totally drained. I believe there is something wrong with the electrical system. There is nothing that I have done that should have caused the batteries to die. The blower on the air conditioner/heat doesn't work and the dealer states that they can't find anything wrong with it. The cover of the passenger side airbag is prying up from the dashboard. I have had the brakes replace 2 times all ready and now all the rotors are warped and need to be replaced. I think this vehicle make has very serious defects and after reviewing other consumers problems. I'm very glad that I plan to sell mine very shortly.
