Mitsubishi Eclipse

What it says about you

Opinion

An affordable coupe that a lot of people modified badly. Yours may have survived that era intact.

Not measured, not from the data, and offered in fun. Everything below this is not.

8 model years on record, 335 complaints filed.

The years to look at closely: 2008 (brake pedal), 2007 (hydraulic however), 2006 (stop). Everything else drew a normal number of complaints for this model.

  1. 2012 0 recalls 8 complaints
