Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GTS - Garage Kept - CAR IS IN SAFE MODE

I purchased this car from a local dealer when the mileage was just 40,000 as my personal car.  I used it mainly to go back and forth to work which was only 8 miles from my home, hence the still low miles of only 70,556.  It has been loved, cared for and driven with the utmost respect by me only since I purchased it.  It has NEVER been run hard or abused in any way while in my care!!! 

About 2 years ago I bought a truck and retired the car to the garage for the most part, other than the occasional week end ride.  Then one day I went to go for a ride and low and behold it went into "Safe Mode."  My husband replaced several sensors thinking one of them was the issue with no success. 

Other than being in safe mode (means that all the electronics have been shut down to the transmission as a safety feature to keep it from sustaining damage) this car is still in extra nice condition.  The motor runs well with no problems at all and the transmission is still in great condition if you can figure out which component has gone simple that is.  The exterior is still beautiful and shiny with only a few small dings here and there, nothing bad enough to note specifically.  The interior is also in extra nice condition with no rips or tears in the leather seats, it has a 6 cd changer, all the extras this model came out with and power everything.  The dash has cracked (defect) as it did on all these cars of this year and the lining on the interior of the top is loose around the rear window.  Various minor, normal signs of use.  None severe.  The convertible top is in very good working condition.

Overall a great car in very nice condition.  If you're a mechanic or mechanically inclined this car is perfect for you.  It don't believe it will require much money to fix if you can do it yourself but it will require a knowledgeable mechanic.  Fluids changed regularly, all maintenance requirements were met or exceeded. 

Includes the original top cover for when the top is down.

Being sold "AS IS."

DoJ fines Japanese parts firms $740M in massive automotive price-fixing scandal

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

Nine Japanese suppliers have pleaded guilty in US court over charges of price fixing in the automotive parts industry, resulting in the Department of Justice doling out a total of $740 million of fines, according to a report from Bloomberg. The scandal, which has resulted in General Motors, Ford, Toyota and Chrysler spending up to $5 billion on inflated parts and driving up prices on 25 million vehicles has sent the DoJ hustling into investigations. "The conduct this investigation uncovered involved more than a dozen separate conspiracies aimed at the U.S. economy," Attorney General Eric Holder (pictured above) said during yesterday's press conference.
As the investigation stands, the DoJ has issued $1.6 billion in fines against 20 companies and 21 individual executives, with 17 of the execs headed to prison. Deputy Assistant Attorney General Scott Hammond said, "The breadth of the conspiracies brought to light today are as egregious as they are pervasive. They involve more than a dozen separate conspiracies operating independently but all sharing in common that they targeted US automotive manufacturers."
Big-name suppliers indicted in the investigation include Mitsubishi Electric, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi Automotive and Mitsuba Corporation. A list of fines and other corporations named in the investigation is available at Bloomberg.

Our best look yet at the 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander

Sat, 08 Nov 2014

Mitsubishi's has been busily clawing its way back from the brink of irrelevancy in the US market for several years. One of its most important models in that mission is the Outlander CUV, and as we can see from these spy photos, it's upcoming refresh is coming along nicely.
The Outlander was last redesigned for model year 2014, so it does feel a smidge early for a refresh. That said, thanks to a rather polarizing front fascia, we aren't totally surprised that Mitsu has gone to work so soon. Based on these spy shots, we wouldn't be totally surprised if the new Outlander borrowed the more attractive face of Outlander PHEV Concept-S, which was shown back in September during the Paris Motor Show.
It's impossible to tell if the rear of the car will borrow the huge, vehicle-spanning taillights of the Concept-S, but like the front end, we'd expect a fairly significant change to the back of the new Outlander. Our spies also captured a few shots of the cabin, although we don't see any dramatic differences from the current vehicle, aside from some different trim pieces.

2014 Mitsubishi Outlander earns Top Safety Pick+ award [w/video]

Fri, 02 Aug 2013

The Mitsubishi Outlander officially is a safe vehicle, earning a good rating in all of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety crash test categories - good enough for the agency to give it the Top Safety Pick+ award. The small sport utility vehicle's little sibling, the Outlander Sport, received the Top Safety Pick award earlier this year.
According to the IIHS, to earn the Top Safety Pick+ rating vehicles must be rated good in at least four out of the five crash tests (including the difficult small overlap front test) and earn no less than acceptable in the rear crash test. The Top Safety Pick rating requires that vehicles be rated good in the moderate overlap front, side, rollover and rear tests, but there's no minimum rating on the small overlap front crash test.
Mitsubishi designed the Outlander to have greater roof strength (the roof now can support up to five times the SUV's weight) and to withstand the moderate overlap front crash test and the recently introduced small overlap front crash test, both of which evaluate the ability of vehicles to protect their occupants in crashes that bypass the traditional front crumple zone. Crumple zones are designed into vehicles to allow them to deform in a way that protects passengers in the event of a crash. The Outlander was one of two small SUVs to earn a good rating in the small overlap test, the other being the 2014 Subaru Forester. The Subaru earned a Top Safety Pick rating.
