What can I tow in a Mitsubishi?

Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Eclipse’s towing capacity. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.

When should I have my Eclipse's transmission fluid checked or exchanged?

Maintaining your Mitsubishi Eclipse transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health.

The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
