Mitsubishi Eclipse 2006

• Recall 115959 [USA]: A sudden reduction of braking performance may increase the risk of a crash.
  Mitsubishi motors north america, inc. (mmna) is recalling certain model year 2006-2009 eclipse vehicles manufactured april 20, 2005, to february 13, 2009, and 2007-2009 eclipse spyder vehicles manufactured december 23, 2005, to february 13, 2009. Due to corrosion inside the antil-lock brake system (abs) unit, one or more of the internal valves may seize. In a braking event that uses the abs, a seized valve would increase brake pedal travel and reduce braking ability.
  mmna will notify owners, and dealers will inspect, flush and clean the abs hydraulic unit using high grade brake fluid, free of charge. If the inspection shows that the valves may seize, the abs unit will be replaced. The recall began on july 21, 2015. Owners may contact mmna customer service at 1-888-648-7820. Mmna's number for this recall is sr-15-004.
  owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.Safercar.Gov.

• Recall 76546 [USA]: Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire.
  Mitsubishi is recalling 45,988 my 2005-2007 endeavor, galant, eclipse coupe, and my 2007 eclipse spyder vehicles. The bracket that is the attachment point for the left rear fuel tank mounting strap may have been improperly formed during a metal stamping process. The process may have caused the metal to have a split in the area where the bolt that holds one of the two fuel tank straps to the underside of the vehicle is located. In the event the fuel tank is full and the vehicle is subject to a severe collision, the bracket may break and allow the fuel tank to drop down, possibly causing a fuel leak.
  dealers will inspect to see if the left rear fuel tank strap mounting bracket has splitting beyond a specific limit. Vehicles with moderate to severe splitting will be repaired using a reinforcement cap, a special structural adhesive, and a rivet to reinforce the fuel tank mounting bracket. The recall began on september 20, 2008. Owners may contact mitsubishi at 1-800-222-0037.

  On certain passenger vehicles, one of four seals inside the master cylinder may have been installed improperly. As a result, the master cylinder may unexpectedly by-pass hydraulic braking force pressure and allow a longer than normal pedal stroke.
  dealers will replace the master cylinder assembly free of charge. The recall began june 28, 2005. Owners may contact mitsubishi at 1-888-648-7820.

• Recall 2015219 [Canada]: Brakes
  On certain vehicles, corrosion may occur in the abs hydraulic unit due to a reaction between the brake fluid and the surface treatment of the internal valves. If this were to occur and the abs hydraulic unit is activated, one or more of the valves could seize. This could result in longer brake pedal travel and increased stopping distances, which may increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will flush and clean the hydraulic unit by replacing the brake fluid with higher grade (dot4) fluid. If module valve movement is determined to be poor, the abs hydraulic unit will be replaced.

• Recall 2008374 [Canada]: Other
  On certain vehicles, the bracket that is the anchor point for the left rear fuel tank mounting strap may have been improperly formed during the manufacturing process. This may have caused the metal to spilt in the area where the bolt holds the fuel strap to the underside of the vehicle. In the event the tank is full of fuel and the vehicle is involved in a serious collision the bracket could break and the tank could drop down. This situation could result in a fuel leak and the possibility of a fire. Correction: dealers will inspect and if necessary install a reinforcement cap to the fuel tank bracket.

My v-6 (3.8) gt has approximately 80,000 miles on it. The code (po421) has come up on an obii which is the catalytic converter. In my state (washington) the recall on this part is not honored, due to the 80000 mile warranty. In many other states it is warrantied to 100,000 miles. Whether other states have stricter emission laws, or whatever the reason, this does not change the life expectancy, performance or makeup of the part that is expected to last 100000 miles. In short, i am hoping to get a standardized and equal treatment as others driving the same vehicle with a fair warranty. *tr
