1 Brake Abs Warning Light problem of the 2009 Mitsubishi Eclipse

Failure Date: 12/23/2018

Decemebr 23, 2018 I was involved in an accident on a freeway, where all the traffic suddenly came to a stop from 50 mph. As I pressed my breaks it was as though they almost didn't work causing me to strike the vehicle in front of me. The abs light then became lit, all air bags were deployed and the car was determined totaled by my insurance company and I was not at fault.

2 Brake Abs Warning Light problem of the 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse

Failure Date: 02/01/2016

5 years after buying vehicle, brake pedal would sporadically push all the way to the floor. Took me 3 years for someone to figure out what was wrong with spongy, whistling brakes. Abs hydraulic unit had grease caked under it, and the shop would not let me drive my car because it was too dangerous. Had abs system replaced on my $, a year later a recall came out on the abs hydraulic unit. Mitsubishi denied my claim for reimbursement because the place that fixed it failed to write on the form the reasons I came in to get it fixed. Apparently I'm going to have an $800 part replaced for no reason. Found on NHTSA the indicators of a bad part and the fact that it is documented my abs light came on should be enough. Also, passenger side door: the automatic lock no longer works and there is no key hole on that side; could be a slight issue but is more annoying than anything and puts car at risk for theft.

Abs/braking issues. Two related issues. Issue number 1. There are 3 lights that are illuminating on the dashboard continuously under all circumstances (driving, parking, braking, idling, etc. - they never turn off) the lights are the traction control light, the abs light and the icon of a vehicle with skid marks. Issue number 2- additionally, the abs system turns on while braking and the abs braking system is jigging the brake making it difficult to brake safely. This happens with a forward brake, and with braking when going into a turn both left and right.
