1 Clutch Broken problem of the 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer

Failure Date: 10/26/2017

Car has only been driven just under 6 months with no abuse and with just at 10,000 miles the clutch failed. The dealer and manufacturer claim wear item. If the car had 40,00 or more miles I might accept, but they built a can with an engine that produces over 300 ft. Lbs. Of torque, and apparently installed a clutch and pressure plate that does not have adequate clamping and holding abilities for the engine in the car. The are claiming wear item and want approximately $2,000. 00 for the repair of what I believe to be a defective or intentionally insufficient part to properly contain the output of the cars engine and are passing the cost on to the buyers. These are also not entry level cars and are advertised as high power, performance cars. Clutch began slipping while driving thereby creating an unsafe operating condition. An extended warranty was also purchased and the claim is being denied by both the manufacture, and the add on warranty company as wear items,.

2 Clutch Broken problem of the 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer

Failure Date: 09/15/2017

The transmission doesn't shift into gear easily as well as jumps out of first gear when taking off from stop. When shifting into 3rd and 5th it is difficult to shift into while moving. This is a dangerous situation when driving. All upper gears are difficult to shift into. The clutch failed twice in less than 40k miles then the replacement failed after only 1,000. Not sure if they are related.

3 Clutch Broken problem of the 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer

Failure Date: 10/01/2013

I own a Mitsubishi Lancer evolution x gsr 2011. I purchased this vehicle on February 2013 brand new. By the end of September 2013 (7 months) I had about 15,000 miles on the vehicle and I started experiencing a problem with the acceleration of the vehicle. The gear was engaging properly but there was a delay on getting traction to the wheels. The engine ramped up several rpms before the car started accelerating in any gear. On October 2nd 2013 I took the vehicle to the Mitsubishi dealership and I was told that I have to replace the clutch because it was worn off. I could not believe this since the vehicle was fairly new and I have never experienced this problem before, all my previous vehicles have had manual transmission. I also got the vehicle checked with two local mechanics and they told me that the clutch was worn off beyond normal. The clutch is not under manufacturer's warranty because it's wear off depends on the driver according to Mitsubishi. The problem arises when I checked the national highway traffic safety administration website for recalls and I found out that in November 11 2013 there will be a recall noticed for my vehicle for the clutch master cylinder. After November 11 I called the dealership to confirm that my car is one of the cars affected and it was indeed. I got the clutch master cylinder replaced and the car is still having the same problem as before. My question is, and I need to know if the national highway traffic safety administration can do the research for me, what is the effect of a damaged clutch master cylinder on the wearing of a clutch? I now have to pay over $2,000 to the dealership to have the clutch replaced. If the clutch was damaged due to miss-function of the master cylinder wouldn't Mitsubishi have to cover repair cost for the early wearing of the clutch? please get back to me. Sincerely,.

Hello my name is ryan girouard, I own a 2005 Mitsubishi ralliart sedan,my master cylinder broke down driving on road almost causing a serious accident, warranty claimed to be not covered, master cylinder bled out completely. Is there a warranty coverage for this part? and is my clutch plate damaged due to bleed out of master cylinder? as a result destroying other components that were in working order,I'm concerned as its not a regular wearing part of this vehicle. As I'm aware oil, brakes, transmission fluid and other fluids, wiper blades , tires, and many others are not covered, please reply back thank you ryan.
