The 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution has 4 recalls, the most serious being a fuel return pipe that can develop stress cracks and leak fuel, creating a fire risk if an ignition source is nearby.
The clutch master cylinder is the subject of another recall: it can fail and leave the driver unable to disengage the clutch or shift gears, which can cause unintended vehicle movement, longer stopping distances, or the engine stalling. There is also a label recall involving the French-language tire pressure sticker, which may list an incorrect spare tire specification.
