“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.”
