What owners report
ON 5/19/08, ANOTHER EMPLOYEE INFORMED ME THAT MY REAR DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE WAS FLAT IN OUR COMPANY PARKING LOT. I AM A MEMBER OF AARP MOTORING PLAN AND CALLED TO HAVE THE FLAT CHANGED. A COMPANY CALLED ROADRUNNER ROAD SERVICE WAS DISPATCHED. THE EMPLOYEE, RAHEEM, FROM ROADRUNNER ROAD SERVICE TOLD ME THAT FOR AN ADDITION $20, HE COULD PLUG THE TIRE, REINFLATE IT AND PUT IT BACK ON THE CAR. I WENT BACK INTO MY PLANT TO GET THE ADDITION MONEY TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR AND DID NOT SEE HIM PLACE THE TIRE BACK ON THE CAR. EVERYTHING APPEARED FINE WITH THE TIRE WHEN I PAID HIM THE ADDITION MONIES. WHEN I LEFT AT THE END OF THE DAY, APPROX. 3 HOURS LATER, THE TIRE WAS STILL INFLATED AND APPEARED NO

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE STALLED EIGHT TIMES WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND WHILE IDLING. THE VEHICLE STARTED BACK EACH TIME AFTER 10-15 MINUTES. THIS HAPPENS RANDOMLY. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP ONCE AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THERE IS AN NHTSA RECALL, # 00V299001, REGARDING THE ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING: ENGINE. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.
ALL OF THE WHEELS ON MY ECLIPSE SPYDER ARE DAMAGED FROM NORMAL DRIVING. MITSUBISHI CLAIMS I HAVE HIT POT HOLES, CURBS, ETC.BUT I HAVE NOT. MAKING A U-TURN IN A PARKING LOT CAUSED 4 "WAVES" IN MY REAR DRIVERS SIDE WHEEL AND CAUSED MY TIRE TO GO FLAT.
ALL 4 ALLOY WHEELS DEVELOPED A DENT IN THEM. THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL DENT WAS SO SEVERE THAT IT RESULTED IN THE TIRE LEAKING AIR BECAUSE IT WAS NOT ABLE TO FORM A PROPER SEAL. DEALERSHIP WAS CONTACTED.*AK
