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.
FUEL FILLER TUBE IS RUSTED THROUGH AND IT LEAKS WHILE FUELING THE CAR. PUDDLES UNDERNEATH THE CAR. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 MITSUBISHI GALANT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WOULD NOT OPERATE. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WIRE WAS MELTED. THE WIRE HARNESS WAS REPLACED AND THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED. APPROXIMATELY 8 MONTHS LATER, THE REAR DRIVER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WOULD NOT OPERATE. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WIRE HARNESS HAD ALSO MELTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNAVAILABLE.
IN HOT WEATHER THE DOORS STICK CAUSING THE OUTER DOOR AND INNER PANEL TO SEPARATE MAKING IT UNABLE TO BE OPENED FROM OUTSIDE NOR INSIDE. HAVE TO KEEP PUSHING ON DOOR TO MAKE IT UNSTUCK BEFORE YOU CAN ENTER OR GET OUT. LARGE RISK OF BEING STUCK INSIDE CAR IN HEAT. *TR

THE KEY CASING SEEMS TO FALL APART AFTER A SHORT WHILE, MY CONCERN IS IF THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING WILL IT "KILL" THE ENTIRE SYSTEM, HAS THIS BEEN QUESTIONED BEFORE? *TR
