Brake Light On Problems of Mitsubishi Lancer

The brake lights were no longer functioning, but the tail lights were still operating. The car failed inspection due to brake lights not functioning and the vehicle was taken to the dealership for diagnostics. The ecu, part number 8637c096 is what is in my vehicle. There is a safety recall for a 2009 Lancer, sr-15-002, for the ecu but because of the part number (8637a826) difference the dealership will not replace my ecu that is faulty. Upon further personal investigation I have found several issues surrounding the ecu for Lancers;10091781, 10158957, 10142736, 10117850, 10158956, 10158955, 10142736, 10158957. Several individuals have reported electrical problems and that the company would not fix the issue. . Read more...

My Lancer 2010 has only 30,400 original miles, the passenger air bag light is on, the anti lock brake light is on, stability control disabled by the anti lock light on, sometimes the light goes off and turns on when turning sharp right, and sometimes the light comes on with the vehicle not moving. Took the car to a dealer, they said the anti lock brake pump is defective and said it costs $1,800 to replace and said the air bag problem is no longer under warranty in puerto rico all Lancer owners that I know have front wheel sensors issues also. The dealer took care of 3 recalls, 1. Eng belts and tensioner, 2. Etacs ecu, 3. Interior blower motor and I never received any recall notices. I have read a lot about these defects and many say that the passenger seat belt and air bag will turn the anti lock brake light on if there is a defect present. And many say that Mitsubishi refuses to admit there is a problem with all these issues.
