The 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross has 2 recalls, both involving the forward collision mitigation system, which can apply the brakes incorrectly and raise the risk of a crash.
The first issue affects vehicles equipped with the pedestrian-detection version of the system, where the automatic braking can activate for longer than needed, catching the driver off guard and potentially causing a sudden, unintended stop. The second issue involves vehicles with adaptive cruise control and the electronic parking brake, where those systems may not respond as expected during driving, reducing the vehicle's ability to help avoid a collision.
