Campaign:
08V139000 on 03/25/2008
Component:
Electrical system:ignition
Affected:
116,600
Defect:
Mitsubishi is recalling 120,000 my 2004-2006 endeavor passenger vehicles. during vehicle use, the ignition key interlock cable (which is a component of the interlock system) may allow the interlocking cam to fall forward and allow the ignition key to be removed from the ignition switch when the gearshift mechanism is not in the park position.
Consequence:
If the driver does not shift to park before removing the key and fails to engage the parking brake, the vehicle could roll and a crash could occur.
Correction:
Dealers will inspect and correct these vehicles for the reported condition. the recall will begin on july 7, 2008. owners may contact mitsubishi at 1-888-648-7820.

Campaign:
08V454000 on 09/08/2008
Component:
Fuel system, gasoline:storage:tank assembly
Manufactured:
03/16/2005 - 02/27/2007
Affected:
45,988
Defect:
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.
Consequence:
Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire.
Correction:
Dealers will inspect to see if the left rear fuel tank strap mounting bracket has splitting beyond a specific limit. vehicles with moderate to severe splitting will be repaired using a reinforcement cap, a special structural adhesive, and a rivet to reinforce the fuel tank mounting bracket. the recall began on september 20, 2008. owners may contact mitsubishi at 1-800-222-0037.

Mitsubishi recall no. sr-08-005.customers may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to http://www.safercar.gov.

Consequence:
Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire.
