My car suddenly stopped starting. I thought it was the battery so I had that replaced, but upon further inspection it was discovered that my starter had gone bad. I had the starter replaced in August of 2011 (that's too soon for a 2008). On July 16, 2012 I had to have another brand new starter installed in my Eclipse. Two brand new starters in less than a year is unacceptable and it makes it worse that the car is a 2008. I feel like Mitsubishi needs to do a recall on this part.
