The failure is my dashboard. The care is a 2002 mitsubishi eclipse gs. The dash started cracking all over the top back in september. At least 4 other people I know with the same car have the same issue. Forums that I am a member of also have many third generation eclipse owners complaining about the same thing. The manufacturer does not recognize this issue as a defect and will do nothing to resolve the issue.

Dashboard has cracked in two. This is the second dashboard that has been replaced in this car, dodge and mitsubishi will not do anything to rectify this problem.
Vehicle was purchased used with a severly cracked dash. Apparently an occuring problem in the 2000-2006 mitsubishi eclipses.
2002 mitshabishi eclipse rear bumper started to burn and I had just parked at work I was found slumped over behind the wheel apparently from the fumes of the burning plastic. I hope my reporting this removes plastic in areas that may be ignited.
Ron marhofer mitsubishi's service department has attempted to fix this problem twice and refuses to attempt another repair. We have been told by area body shops that the problem could be from a broken support in the frame.
