Brakes consistently fail to hold pressure and are letting go. I purchased this car back in April and the previous owner had no idea of the recall. Did a bit of research and found it's a defect in the system. Once the car fails to hold pressure I have to very rapidly spam the break pedal to get a sliver of pressure so my car can come to a stop. Breaking with little pressure grinds the brakes and doesn't stop the car.
Dearler did not fix the abs, only replaced brake fluid. Abs still fails. Went back to Mitsubishi and they said they couldnt help me.
I have no brakes what so ever I have to push them like 10 times before I have any.
Left front wheel fell off after failure of front cross member. Vehicle was on a city street under 4 mph when bumped by adjacent car in left front fender.

My car was recalled for the anit-lock braking system and the recall notice stated that the repair would take approx 2. 0 hrs to evaluate and 4. 0 to repair. The dealer had my car for 7 days and would not give me a loaner car. The reason they had it so long was because Mitsubishi did not let the dealers have the replacement part. They had to fax the info to Mitsubishi for approval then wait for the part to be shipped. They would not give me my car back when I told them I had to get to work they told me there was nothing they could do. I don't understand why if it's a known recall Mitsubishi doesn't at least let the dealer have 1 or 2 parts on hand and then replace them as used. It's totally unacceptable for Mitsubishi to expect to have someone's car for a week. They stated it wasn't their problem that I would have to rent a car in order to get to work. I had to pay over $200 for a "free recall". Shame on you Mitsubishi.

On Friday September 11, 2015 I was driving my 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse at 35 mph, and tried pressing the brakes so I could turn soon. When I pressed the brakes they went all the way down and the car did not slow down at all. I almost lost control of the car, because while I was turning the car jerked back and then forward really hard. The second time it happened was at a stop sign. I almost hit the car going straight because the car wouldn't stop and the brakes would just go all the way down. This problem happened 2 times in a row.
Brakes stopped working before a speed bump. Have been spongy and making puppy like sounds ever since when released.

I was pressing brakes when I suddenly got the bump driving from the hill and brake pedal became very soft and the car stopped braking until I pushed breaks very hard. Fortunately, I could avoid the collision with car in front of me before the lights. I pulled off the road to check brakes and I found the liquid leak under the car in the center. It didn't smell like fuel, my breaking fluid is at the maximum level, so I'm not sure what it is, it doesn't smell and has no color. So, car still can stop, but brake is spongy and I had to press pedal to the very down to start breaking. . Read more...
