Four problems related to brake disc rotor have been reported for the 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Engine burns oil at approx. 1 qt per week, also has possible leaks in engine with only 69,000 miles on engine. Has had regular oil changes for life of engine. Brake rotors warped and need replacement, unsure of when last changed. Transmission slips and shifts hard with slow or fast acceleration.
When consumer started up vehicle white smoke came from uderneath vehicle, from exhaust pipe. Engine was replaced. But consumer had to take it back to dealer because there was a rattling noise. Noise came from exhaust pipe that was loose. Also, brakes rotors were warped. Every three months brakes needed to be replaced due to shaking.
Have had to have car in 7 times for warped rotors and brakes. Dealership each time has told me I have to pay while under warranty. I did have to buy new brakes while car under warranty due to warped rotor wear. I have been told that I have to pay for all warped rotors and brakes even while under warranty. My brakes feel as though they are going to fail and possibly cause collision. Also, tire just fell off rim driving out of parking lot. Had to put new tires on car after 6 months ownership. Sunroof leaks. I have had this car only one year and six months. Thank you for your assistance. ( dot number: ).
The brake rotors on the vehicle have failed and are in need of replacement again.
