Consumer Description

MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE 2000GT- I HAVE GONE THROUGH 5 RIMS AND TIRES IN LESS THEN ONE YEAR. DOING RESEARCH, I HAVE FOUND OUT THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THIS ISSUSE. MY FIRST INCIDENT WAS AT THE END OF MARCH AND THEN I HAVE HAD ANOTHER IN DEC 2003. THE RIMS ON THIS CAR ARE WEAK AND THEY BEND, CRACK AND BREAK TIRES. THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO HAVE ON THE ROAD. YOUNEVER KNOW WHEN YOUR RIM WILL BREAK.*AK
