| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: In the summer of 2003 my clutch master cylinder started leaking so ireplaced it. then in may of 2004 my clutch failed so i had it replaced with a stock clutch. two months later the engine developed signs of "crankwalk", which happens to alot of 95-99 mitsubishi eclipses. i had it formally diagnosed with crankwalk and now i can no longer drive my car. i now have to replace my motor with a new one that will cost $3000 and it might end at the same fate. i have done alot of research and there are thousands who have had this happen but, mitsubishi will not issue a recall for their product. *ak |
