For a month, I've noticed that my brake fluid level was decreasing rapidly and that I had to refill my brake fluid once a week. On 9/22/2015, suddenly my brake pedal had to go to the floor before I could start slowing down. I took my car to a mechanic on 9/24/2015. He said that my abs pump was leaking really bad and he cannot find/buy the part anywhere and that I had to take it to the dealership. I took it to a Mitsubishi dealership that same day and told them what I was experiencing and what I was told. They kept the car that day and ran tests and confirmed with me in the morning of 9/25/2015 that it was the abs pump, which is part of a recent recall. The service manager at the dealership told me that he would be in contact with their corporate office about what to do next to get my vehicle fixed and to give me a rental car in the mean time (I couldn't get to work on 9/24 or 9/25 because I live an hour from work). In the evening of 9/25, the service manager called me back and told me that the corporate office is not willing to provide a rental car because the recall didn't say anything about the abs pump "leaking". The recall only mentions the valves within the pump "sticking", and because of that, cannot determine yet if my car is included in the recall and that additional tests need to be done, so they won't provide me with a rental car yet. He gave me the phone number to Mitsubishi service center to try getting a rental car. I called in the morning of 9/28/2015 and the service center explained to me what I've already been told by the service manager at the dealership about the recall, but also that Mitsubishi doesn't provide loaner vehicles due to a recall but it is up to the individual dealership. I explained to them that I've now missed 3 days of work because of a faulty part they put in my car and I'm losing money. I need help with this situation.

Received recall informed no parts have been available to fix the brakes. I've had the car for 2 years brakes have always been mushy no accidents yet and still can't find anyone around to repair.
While performing a stop the brake pedal lost all pressure and went to the floor. The car did stop but took longer to do so. After reviewing the recall notice for abs brakes I brought the vehicle to a Mitsubishi dealer who confirmed there was a recall but did not inspect anything beyond driving the car to test the brakes. Between the time of the incident and the one and a half weeks they claimed was the next available appointment the brakes returned to normal operation. The recall (15v337) states the hydraulic unit will be flushed, cleaned and inspected. The dealer indicated they were only testing the braking system by driving it and when the incident did not produce the same result, that was the end of their responsibility until I received a certified letter from the manufacturer. This recall was issued in may 2015 and it is now the beginning of October 2015. The manufacturer is obviously delaying doing the appropriate inspection and repair while this dangerous issue continues to affect many consumers.
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.

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...
