Some affected vehicles may have a defective brake master cylinder. An internal seal may have been installed
incorrectly, allowing brake fluid to bypass during braking, resulting in partial reduction in braking function, which could lead to a crash. Dealers are instructed to replace the master cylinder on all affected vehicles, using
the master cylinder repair kit listed in the PARTS INFORMATION section of this bulletin.
The master cylinder repair kit contains the master cylinder assembly, O-ring, two attachment nuts, and a "CAUTION" sheet (shown in Attachment A at the end of this bulletin).
AFFECTED VEHICLES:
2006 Eclipse models produced before 6/10/05
CUSTOMER NOTIFICATION
A letter will be sent to all owners of affected vehicles, asking them to bring their vehicle to their selling Mitsubishi Motors dealer to have the brake master cylinder replaced. A copy of the customer notification letter appears later in this bulletin. Dealers are also asked to contact their customers (by phone, e-mail, or fax), asking them to bring their vehicle to the dealership for this repair.
