The lady crossed two lanes of traffic and ran a red light and hit my car on drivers side front including the door. Door willn't open and airbags didn't deploy. The car was towed cause it couldn't start and wasn't drivable. Seat belts didn't lock so the people in my car hit steering, dashboard and back of the seats. My car was hit in the front in Dec. 5, 2013 and same thing happened. Airbags didn't deploy and seatbelts didn't lock. From the accident before I made a complaint with Mitsubishi and they done nothing. Thanks for your time.

I have a Mitsubishi Eclipse and it kept going to the left side when you drive it, either in town or on the highway. It start happening after the 2 month from the day I bought it. The dealer said they fixed the problem by making an alignment, but the same things happened after 2 months and I went to the dealer about this issue about 4 times in 1 year and after that they told me we can't do anything if this problem kept occurring. So I stopped going until a week ago I was in crash because the car moved to the left of the street and I hit a wall.

The contact owns a 2009 Mitsubishi Eclipse spyder. While seated in the front driver's seat, the contact noticed that the seat belt buckle release mechanism was difficult to access. The mechanism was extremely difficult to reach because it was located between the side of the seat and the console. The excessively small area prevented accessibility to unlock or lock the seat belt mechanism. The manufacturer was notified of the malfunction. A seat belt extender was purchased and installed, but was ineffective due to the length. The VIN was unknown. The failure mileage was 16 and current mileage was 3,000.

Driver's side seat belt mount attached to frame of vehicle came out after being pulled to be used. Screw was painted & was not threaded through frame completely.

Concerns for passenger's in vehicle, during crash vehicle roll over. While driving a deer jumped in front of the consumer's vehicle. The consumer over-corrected which caused the vehicle to pin counter clockwise. The vehicle then struck a tree splitting it in half. The passenger compartment continued westbound, the passenger became ejected. The passenger compartment continued to roll and came to final rest in a yard. The vehicle's air bags did not deploy and the seat belt did not properly restrain the passenger. The driver sustained minor injuries but the passenger was killed.

On October 24, 1998 I had an minor accident. I rear ended another vehicle. We had a red light making a right hand turn onto another road. The light turned green and we proceeded. The other vehicle for no apparent reason stoped in the middle of the intersection and I rear ended him at a speed of approx. 5 mph. On impact both my drivers side and passenger side air bags deployed. My total repair cost on my vehicle is $2,917. 31. This figure is broke down like this: labor 891. 57, paint 163. 88, and parts $1,861. 86 this is with sales tax. Of the parts price $1,515,24 is air bags and senor replacement. My complaint is that I feel the air bags should not have deployed on an impact such as this. Another problem aroused when the air bags deployed, my hatchback came out of line and needs to be realigned. This happened due to the pressure of the air bags deploying. I have seen many accidents in the last few years by working as a volunteer firemen and an emt and I have not seen any accidents as minor as this one where the air bags deployed. When I spoke to Mitsubishi about this deployment they told me that the air bags did there job and the hatch coming out of line is an effect of the air bags deploying. This is a problem I believe in such a minor accident I have a huge bill due to the air bags. Thank you for you time. Michael gregorio.
