The contact owns a 2009 Mitsubishi Eclipse. The contact stated that the passenger side of the dashboard protruded out towards the front passenger seat. The contact was concerned that in the event of a crash, the front seat passenger could be injured. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where the technician stated that the dashboard needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 65,000.

There is a hollow opening behind carpet in floor under gas pedal. In less than 10,000 miles, a hole wore through the carpet. Now heels of shoes (just normal women's shoes, not spike heels!) get stuck while driving. An accident is inevitable if the problem is not repaired. I have driven many other model cars, many with worn carpeting, but none had a design flaw like the 2009 Mitsubishi Eclipse. I have been close to crashing several times. I reported it to the dealership, but they said it is not covered under the manufacturer's warranty.
