Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder 2007 — Reported problems

With my vehicle the brakes go straight to the floor. I took it to the mitsubishi dealership closest to me (Bobmills mitsubishi Jacksonville Nc). When I got there i told them what was going on, and if you bleed the brakes they worked fine for 3 or 4 days but after that the brakes would just go to the floor again. They said they bleed the brakes to replace the fluid and then tested the ABS module for a recall and said it was fine but I had a collapsed brake line in the rear. I replaced all the brake lines on the vehicle and did a complete bleed again to remove any air. The brakes now go all the way to the floor again. I was trying to bleed them just to see if I could get some pressure, but 3 of the lines aren't getting pressure. I decided to check and bleed at the master cylinder, I had plenty of pressure coming out so I know that's good. Then I checked the bleed pressure at the ABS module thats on the recall and I am only getting pressure from the drivers front tire, the other 3 are not giving pressure at all, even if you pump the brakes while they are open. So I know the cylinders in that ABS module are bad. So I called the dealership again and they are refusing to do it because they said they don't work on vehicles that old.

Warning lights turn on then automatically turn off while driving

Brakes consistently fail to hold pressure and are letting go. I purchased this car back in April and the previous owner had no idea of the recall. Did a bit of research and found it's a defect in the system. Once the car fails to hold pressure I have to very rapidly spam the break pedal to get a sliver of pressure so my car can come to a stop. Breaking with little pressure grinds the brakes and doesn't stop the car.

UNKNOWN. I received something from the Mitsubishi company in the mail, but did not reply to them because multiple people told me those are scam related. I never had anything checked, and not sure if I have an issue.

Dearler did not fix the ABS, only replaced brake fluid. ABS still fails. went back to Mitsubishi and they said they couldnt help me.

VEHICLE IS FOR SALE SITTING ON NAPLETON HYUNDAI OF CARMEL'S USED CAR LOT, 4200 EAST 96TH STREET INDIANAPOLIS,IN 46240. I JUST PAID FOR AND SIGNED PAPERWORK FOR AN 2007 MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE SE, I HAVEN'T TAKEN OWNERSHIP AS FAR A DRIVING IT OFF LOT AFTER PAY/SIGN. CAR FAX WAS SHOWN TO ME B4 SIGNING, IT'S BEEN 2 DAYS AND I HAVEN'T TAKEN OFF LOT YET (FRONT D SIDE CALIPER BRACKET SLIDE/GLIDE PINS ARE SEIZED UP, BRAKE PADS LOCKED ONTO ROTOR. I WILL NOT DRIVE CAR UNTIL DEALER COMPLETES RECALL. I WAS LIED TO ABOUT A COUPLE THINGS SO I'M GOING TO TRY TO BACK OUT OF PURCHASE, THAT'S WHY THE COMPLAINT, I DON'T WANT TO SEE THEM IGNORE RECALL AND SOMEONE ELSE BUYS CAR AND SOMETHING HORRIBLE HAPPENS!!

I HAVE NO BRAKES WHAT SO EVER I HAVE TO PUSH THEM LIKE 10 TIMES BEFORE I HAVE ANY

FUEL LEAKS PROFUSELY WHEN FILLING THE TANK. IT IS IN THE FILLER TUBE NOT THE TANK. IT DRIPS AND PUDDLES UNDER THE CAR INSIDE THE REAR TIRE AND CENTER OF CAR. *TR

TRANSMISSION CASE LEAKAGE BOTH WHILE PARKED AND WHILE DRIVING

-SEAT BELTS HAVE BECOME DIFFICULT TO USE (STICKY, HARD)...TO PULL OUT TO CONNECT WITH "SNAP". -PLASTIC BASE (AROUND BOTTOM OF SEAT BY FLOOR) BECAME DISTORTED/WARPED, CAUGHT ON BOTTOM OF SEAT WHEN ADJUSTING AND BROKE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2007 MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE CONTACT STRUCK A POTHOLE AND LOST CONTROL OF THE STEERING. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO A CEMENT WALL AND ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT AND PASSENGER SUSTAINED BACK INJURIES AND BRUISES ON THE STOMACH. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS RECEIVED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE DRIVEN FROM THE SCENE; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS DEEMED TOTALED BY THE POLICE OFFICER. THE INSURANCE COMPANY TOWED THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE CONTACT'S HOME AND STARTED AN INVESTIGATION. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I HAVE EXPERIENCED AT LEAST 5 BRAKE FAILURES WHERE THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. I HAVE HAD 3 MASTER CYLINDER REPLACEMENTS AND HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO A CERTIFIED MECHANIC MULTIPLE TIMES TRYING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. AFTER FINDING OUT ABOUT SAFETY RECALL SR-15-004, I TOOK VEHICLE TO MITSUBISHI DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE RECALL REPAIRED ON 6/15/18. THEY FLUSHED OUT THE ABS SYSTEM AND REPLACED DOT 3 BRAKE FLUID WITH DOT 4, RAN ABS SYSTEM TEST AND IT CAME OUT "OK NO REPAIR TO ABS NEEDED AT THIS TIME." SINCE THEN, I HAVE EXPERIENCED 7 MORE BRAKE FAILURES WHERE THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. MY CERTIFIED MECHANIC WAS FINALLY ABLE TO RE-CREATE THE INCIDENT, WHICH SEEMS TO HAPPEN AFTER, NOT DURING, BRAKING OVER ROUGH ROAD SURFACES. THE BRAKE PEDAL USUALLY COMES RIGHT BACK UP AFTER A FEW SECONDS OR MINUTES, AND IS FINE UNTIL ANOTHER BRAKING INCIDENT OVER ROUGH ROAD. THERE ARE NO CODES DELIVERED AT ALL DURING THESE INSTANCES. MY MECHANIC AND I BOTH ARE CONVINCED THAT THESE OCCURRENCES ARE RELATED TO THE RECALL PROBLEM OF DETERIORATION INSIDE THE ABS UNIT, AS NO OTHER BRAKE PROBLEMS EXIST. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SEPTEMBER 2016 (MILEAGE 72,563) UNTIL PRESENT (AUGUST 4, 2018, MILEAGE 96,783) AND IS A VERY, VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM!!!

LEFT FRONT WHEEL FELL OFF AFTER FAILURE OF FRONT CROSS MEMBER. VEHICLE WAS ON A CITY STREET UNDER 4 MPH WHEN BUMPED BY ADJACENT CAR IN LEFT FRONT FENDER.

I WAS DRIVING ON A DEAD END STREET AND THE BRAKES WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND I HAD NO STOPPING OR SLOWING DOWN EVEN WITH PUMPING THE BRAKES I HAD THE BRAKES CHECKED A MONTH PRIOR TO THIS BECAUSE THE BRAKE AND ABS LIGHT WOULD COME ON RANDOMLY AND THE TECHNICIAN AT MORRIES MAZDA REPORTED TO ME THEY WERE OPERATIONAL.. I ENDED UP HITTING A TREE (MY CHOICES WERE A LINE OF CARS OR A TREE, SO I PICKED THE TREE) WITH THE BRAKE MALFUNCTION AND NO AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AT AROUND 30 PLUS MPH. AND I SUSTAINED INJURIES. WHEN I LOOKED AT THE BRAKES IT APPEARED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE WAS THE ONLY OPERATIONAL BRAKE AS IT WAS THE ONLY ROTOR TO NOT HAVE ACCUMULATED A HIGH AMOUNT OF RUST.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE SPYDER. WHILE THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING 30 MPH, THE DRIVER DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT THE BRAKES FAILED. AS A RESULT, THE DRIVER STRUCK THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE HEAD, NECK, AND SPINE AND LOST CONSCIOUSNESS. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS REQUIRED AND THE DRIVER WAS TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A COLLISION CENTER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS UNSURE IF THE VEHICLE COULD BE REPAIRED OR WAS DESTROYED. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND MADE VARIOUS ATTEMPTS TO CONTACT THE DRIVER. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V337000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,000.

THE DASHBOARD FACIA IS PULLING AWAY FROM THE DASHBOARD. I HAVE RECENTLY REPORTED THIS UNDER TRACKING NUMBER 10956954. IT HAS GOTTEN WORSE, AND I AM CONCERNED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG COULD BE HINDERED IN EVENT OF AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT. I AM ATTACHING PHOTOS.

MY CAR WAS STOLEN LAST YEAR BY SOMEONE I KNEW, AND WAS WRECKED. AFTER THE WRECK, MYSELF AND PENNSYLVANIA STATE POLICE SPOKE TO THE PERSON AND HE SAID THE ACCIDENT WAS CAUSED BECAUSE THE BRAKES FAILED TO ENGAGE AS HE WAS MAKING A TURN AND THE RIGHT LOWER CONTROL ARM FAILED, WHICH CAUSED THE TIE ROD TO SNAP WHICH PUNCTURED THROUGH THE WHEEL AND OUT THE TIRE. DAMAGE DONE TO THE VEHICLE CONFIRMS THIS, AND I HAVE PICTURES AND DOCUMENTATION TO SUPPORT THIS CLAIM. CAR WAS LEFT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH ENTIRE FRONT RIGHT SUSPENSION DETACHED, CV SHAFT RIPPED OUT FROM THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION, ENTIRE FRONT RIGHT WHEEL HUB ASSEMBLY WAS RIPPED OFF, CALIPER, BRAKE PADS AND ROTOR REMAINED ATTACHED TO THE HUB, BUT WERE DISCONNECTED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE WHEEL ALSO REMAINED INTACT ON THE HUB. THERE WAS SIGNIFICANT FRONT END DAMAGE TO THE BUMPER, FENDER, INNER WHEEL HUB SPLASH GUARDS, HEADLIGHT, ETC. AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. HIS SEAT BELT DID NOT LOCK ON IMPACT. CAR WAS TOTALED AND CONSIDERED SALVAGE, BUT I RECONSTRUCTED IT AND HAVE OVER $4,500 INVESTED IN REPAIRS THAT COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF THE BRAKES AND LOWER CONTROL ARM WORKED PROPERLY. HE WAS TRAVELING ON A SIDE STREET THROUGH A SMALL TOWN AROUND 11PM ON A CLEAR, WARM NIGHT. NO OTHER MOVING CARS WERE ON THE ROAD AT THE TIME, BUT HE DID SIDE SWIPE SEVERAL PARKED CARS.

THE DASHBOARD FACIA IS PULLING AWAY FROM UPPER DASH WHERE A LIP IS SUPPOSE TO KEEP IT RETAINED. ALSO, THE DOOR SPRING TO KEEP THE DOOR OPEN BROKE AND THE DOOR WILL CLOSE UNLESS YOU KEEP SOME FORCE ON IT WHILE GETTING IN OR OUT. BOTH ITEMS OCCURRED AT APPROX 70,000 MILES.

I HAVE A 2007 MITSUBISHI ECLIPES GS. THAT HAS OVER 160,000 MILES. FOR THE LAST 9 MONTHS OR EVEN LONGER MY HUSBAND HAS TO PUSH THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH BOARD DOWN WHERE THE AIRBAG IS TO COVER IT BACK. NO, I HAVEN'T TOOK IT TO A DEALER YET, I FIGURE WITH THE WARRANTY OFF OF THE CAR, THE DEALER SHIP WOULD SAY I HAVE TO PAY TO FIX IT. I HAVE NO MONEY TO FIX IT. SO, I'M HOPING THAT SOMEONE WILL READ THIS AND TELL ME THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON IT SO, IT CAN BE FIXED THE RIGHT WAY. I HOPE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG(DASH BOARD) WORKS INCASE OF A ACCIDENT. I'M PLANNING ON CALLING THE DEALER SHIP MONDAY 10/24/2016 TO GET MORE INFORMATION ON THE PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL HAD TO BE DEPRESSED TO THE FLOORBOARD TO STOP THE VEHICLE. AFTER THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS RELEASED, AN ABNORMAL NOISE WAS HEARD FROM THE BRAKE AREA. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER AND THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V337000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC); HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000. UPDATED 09/06/16*LJ UPDATED 09/07/16.*JB

5 YEARS AFTER BUYING VEHICLE, BRAKE PEDAL WOULD SPORADICALLY PUSH ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. TOOK ME 3 YEARS FOR SOMEONE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH SPONGY, WHISTLING BRAKES. ABS HYDRAULIC UNIT HAD GREASE CAKED UNDER IT, AND THE SHOP WOULD NOT LET ME DRIVE MY CAR BECAUSE IT WAS TOO DANGEROUS. HAD ABS SYSTEM REPLACED ON MY $, A YEAR LATER A RECALL CAME OUT ON THE ABS HYDRAULIC UNIT. MITSUBISHI DENIED MY CLAIM FOR REIMBURSEMENT BECAUSE THE PLACE THAT FIXED IT FAILED TO WRITE ON THE FORM THE REASONS I CAME IN TO GET IT FIXED. APPARENTLY I'M GOING TO HAVE AN $800 PART REPLACED FOR NO REASON. FOUND ON NHTSA THE INDICATORS OF A BAD PART AND THE FACT THAT IT IS DOCUMENTED MY ABS LIGHT CAME ON SHOULD BE ENOUGH. ALSO, PASSENGER SIDE DOOR: THE AUTOMATIC LOCK NO LONGER WORKS AND THERE IS NO KEY HOLE ON THAT SIDE; COULD BE A SLIGHT ISSUE BUT IS MORE ANNOYING THAN ANYTHING AND PUTS CAR AT RISK FOR THEFT.

THE FRONT OF MY DASHBOARD (THE AIRBAG SITS BEHIND IT) IS COMING OFF OF MY VEHICLE. IT IS ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE. I CONTACTED THE MITSUBISHI DEALER IN CHARLESTON, SC AND HE INFORMED ME THAT HE HAD SEEN NUMEROUS VEHICLES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM (MITSUBISHI). I CONSIDER THIS TO BE A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE ONCE THIS PIECE OF MATERIAL FALLS OFF THERE WILL BE NOTHING TO PROTECT THE PASSENGER FROM THE AIRBAG AT ANY TIME. I WAS INFORMED IT WOULD COST $1,200 TO FIX. THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. MY VEHICLE DOESN'T EVEN HAVE 100,000 MILES ON IT YET. I BELIEVE THAT HAVING MY VEHICLE IN THE CONDITION IT IS IN IS VERY DANGEROUS AND MITSUBISHI OBVIOUSLY DIDN'T MANUFACTURE A GOOD RELIABLE PRODUCT WHICH IS NOT ONLY DECEPTIVE BUT DANGEROUS. PLEASE HELP ME. THANK YOU! *TR

MAY 2015: RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE. DEFECT MIGHT AFFECT BRAKING. LOCAL MITSU DEALER SAID REPLACEMENT PART HAD NOT YET ARRIVED. DEALER'S INSPECTION VERIFIED THAT THE DAMAGE WOULD REQUIRE REPLACEMENT, NOT SIMPLY A CLEANING OVERHAUL OF THE PART. DEALER SAID THAT THEY WOULD CALL WHEN THE PART WAS AVAILABLE FOR REPLACEMENT. WE HAVE CALLED THE DEALER ON THE AVERAGE OF ONCE A MONTH AND ALWAYS RECEIVED THE SAME ANSWER. THE RECALL DOCUMENT DOES CLEARLY STATE THAT IF THE PART WERE NOT REPLACED A CRASH COULD OCCUR. WE ARE EAGER TO HAVE OUR CAR RESTORED TO WORKING CONDITION. WE ARE SENIOR CITIZENS WHO DEPEND ON OUR CAR. WHAT FURTHER ACTION CAN WE TAKE TO FACILITATE REPAIR?

(LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES) -2007 MITSUBISHI, ECLIPS, SPYDER DOOR LATCH HOLDS THE DOOR OPEN AND WILL NOT CLOSE, THE PLASTIC PART INSIDE THE DOOR IS BROKEN W/ LESS THAN 65K MILES. IS THEIR A RECALL?

I WAS DRIVING 55 TO 60 MPH, THEN LET OFF THE GAS TO TAKE MY EXIT AND WAS DOWN TO ABOUT 20 MPH WHEN MY BRAKES FAILED, AND I COULDN'T STOP AT THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE RAMP. THE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, SO I PUMPED THEM 2 OR 3 TIMES AND AS I WAS LETTING OFF THE BREAK, IT STARTED WHISTLING. IT SOUNDED LIKE A CROSS BETWEEN AN ACCORDION AND AN ASTHMATIC EPISODE. I WAS ALREADY CLOSE TO SCHOOL, SO I DROVE TO THE PARKING LOT AND PARKED. THE ONLY WAY I COULD SLOW DOWN AND STOP WAS TO CONTINUOUSLY PUMP THE BREAKS. I WASN'T HAVING NOR EVER HAD ISSUES WITH MY BREAKS BEFORE THAT DAY.

I WAS GETTING TO A RED LIGHT TO MAKE A LEFT TURN. CARS WERE COMING SO I PRESSED THE BRAKES TO STOP AND LET THEM PASS. THE BRAKES STARTED TO CATCH THEN WENT TO THE FLOOR AND THE CAR DIDN'T STOP. I SLAMMED THE GAS TO TURN IN FRONT OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC TO AVOID HITTING THE CAR WAITING TO TURN IN THE LANE IN FRONT OF ME. I UNDERSTAND THERE IS A LONG LINE OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE THIS SAME MODEL AND YEAR CAR AS ME, HAVE BEEN THROUGH THIS SAME ISSUE AND THERE IS NO RECALL. I HAVE MY BRAKES CHECKED AND BRAKE PADS CHANGED REGULARLY WHEN NEEDED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE SPYDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE POWER STEERING FAILED WITHOUT WARNING AND THE VEHICLE BECOME INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. THE FAILURE CAUSED THE DRIVER TO BECOME INVOLVED IN A CRASH. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED A CONCUSSION AND LACERATIONS TO THE HANDS, WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 52,000.

WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED WHILE TRAVELING OVER A BUMP,DIP OR UNEVEN ROAD SURFACE THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR AND THE CAR LOSES ITS STOPPING POWER. YOU LOSE YOUR BRAKES! YOU HAVE TO QUICKLY PUMP THE BRAKE PEDAL TO GET PRESSURE BACK SO YOU CAN STOP. IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS. JUST LOOK AT ALL THE POSTS ON THE INTERNET. IT IS NOT NORMAL FOR A CAR TO LOSE IT BRAKES BECAUSE YOU WENT OVER A BUMP. *TR

2007 MITSUBISHI, ECLIPS, SPYDER DOOR LATCH HOLDS THE DOOR OPEN AND WILL NOT CLOSE, THE PLASTIC PART INSIDE THE DOOR IS BROKEN W/ LESS THAN 60K MILES. IS THEIR A RECALL? *TR

AT A LITTLE OVER 33,000 MILES I WAS EXPERIENCING ISSUES WITH LOSING AIR IN MY TIRES ON MY 2007 MITSUBISHI SPYDER ECLIPSE. THE TIRES I HAVE ARE P235 45R18 - GOODYEAR EAGLE. ONE MORNING MY TIRES WOULD NOT EVEN KEEP ENOUGH AIR IN THEM TO GET TO WORK. I STOPPED AT THE MITSUBISHI DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED MY CAR AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS TOO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE ON THEM. I ASKED ABOUT A WARRANTY AND THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NONE. I REPLACED THE TIRES BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR AT THE COST OF A LITTLE OVER $600. NOW I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH A 3RD TIRE DOING EXACTLY THE SAME THING. THERE ARE CRACKS IN THE TIRES AND THIS IS CAUSING THE LOSS OF AIR. *TR

2007 MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE SPYDER GT - AT 3,561 MILES THE CLUTCH BURNT UP AND THE DEALER DID NOT HONOR THE WARRANTY, COSTING ME $1880.00. AT 14,143 APPROX MILES, THE CLUTCH BURNT UP AGAIN. NOT WANTING A 3RD MITSUBISHI CLUTCH, I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER AUTOMOTIVE SHOP WHO INFORMED ME THAT THE MITSUBISHI DEALER DID NOT REPLACE THE FLYWHEEL AS STATED IN HIS INVOICE (I HAVE) AND PUT IN A HEAVIER DUTY CLUTCH. THIS HAS COST ME OVER $4,000 FOR A CAR WITH 14,000 MILES AND BARELY 2 YEARS OLD. I HAVE DRIVEN A STICK ALL MY LIFE AND NEVER REPLACED ONE UNDER 100,000 MILES UNTIL THIS CAR. *TR

WHEN VEHICLE IS LEFT IN AMBIENT TEMPERATURES ABOVE 85 DEGREES, ATTEMPTING TO RAISE OR LOWER THE CONVERTIBLE TOP IS SOMETIMES INTERRUPTED WHEN THE POWER TONNEAU COVER DOOR REACHES THE OPEN POSITION, RESULTING IN COMPLETE INABILITY TO COMPLETE THE OPERATION. TONNEAU COVER DOOR REMAINS LOCKED IN THE RAISED POSITION MAKING DRIVING VEHICLE IMPOSSIBLE. WHEN PULLING OVER TO RAISE TOP WITH RAIN APPROACHING, THIS BECOMES DANGEROUS, AS RAISING THE TOP TO UP AND LOCKED POSITION MUST BE DONE MANUALLY, A PROCESS THAT TAKES UPWARDS TO ABOUT 20 MINUTES. THE SENSOR SWITCH LOCATED ON THE PISTON FOR THE TONNEAU COVER DOOR IS THE PROBLEM, IT SOMETIMES SHOWS THE DOOR PARTIALLY OPENED IN WARM TEMPERATURES, GIVING A FALSE READING, STOPPING THE MOVEMENT OF THE TOP. MY CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE WITH THIS PROBLEM. IT IS HARD TO RECREATE, UNLESS THE CAR IS LEFT OUTSIDE IN HIGH TEMPERATURES. THE PISTON HAS BEEN REPLACED. THERE ARE CURRENTLY NO TSB'S FOR THIS PROBLEM, YET I AM AWARE OF AT LEAST ONE OTHER CAR, SAME MODEL AND YEAR WITH THE IDENTICAL PROBLEM THAT WAS AT THE SAME DEALERSHIP AS MINE AT THE SAME TIME. *TR

FRONT BRAKES SQUEAL AND SQUEAK BADLY WHEN SLOWLY BRAKING SINCE SEPTEMBER 2006. I HAVE TAKEN VEHICLE TO DEALER X6 TIMES WITH THE SAME ISSUE. DEALER CONTINUES TO SAY ITS BECAUSE I "RIDE" MY BREAKS. I'VE HAD THE ROTORS RESURFACED X2, ROTORS REPLACED X1, BRAKE PAD X3. THE BRAKES TODAY 07/01/08, CONTINUE TO SQUEAL AND SQUEAK, DEALER STATES, THE BRAKES HAVE GOOD PAD, BUT ROTORS NEED TO BE RESURFACED DUE TO "GLAZE" THEY REPLACE THEM IN DEC. 2007 (ITS BEEN 10,000 MILES LATER) AND DEALER SAYS I NEED TO PAY FOR RESURFACING. THE BACK BRAKES MAKES LOUD NOISE WHEN IN REVERSE. I REPORTED, BUT DEALER DID NOT FOLLOW UP. *TR
