One problem related to brake drum has been reported for the 1996 Mitsubishi Eclipse. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I purchased my Mitsubishi Eclipse 2 years ago. I have replaced the pads and rotors on my car a total of 3 times. I returned to the dealership again this month only to find out that I again need to replace my rotors. I have complained to the service manager at my local dealership. They more or less told me that the brakes were an engineering flaw. I have contacted the Mitsubishi corporate office in California. At this time they are unwilling to assist me with this problem.
