So is that one metal?

Plastic...see pics.

Re: Good news for Evo X GSR owners - CMC RECALL!
 

I saw the pics, was kind of hoping that it was black metal lol. I assumed it was plastic but was still hoping.

Well that sucks, I can't wait to see people break these ones too after they get their recall done.

Re: Good news for Evo X GSR owners - CMC RECALL!
 

I'm honestly thinking they'll be fine. You rarely hear of anything but the 2008's breaking, and the 2014 version is the strongest one they've made yet. If properly engineered, plastic can be just as strong as metal while being lighter in weight and costing less to manufacture. I know people bitch about the plastic valve covers, but I think there are a few valid reasons for it such as heat retention and lower weight at the high point of the engine; the downsides are of course very apparent when you run a non-shielded tubular exhaust manifold though.

Plastic doesn't bother me honestly, I am all for it as long as it works.

I just question that this is fixed properly but hopefully it is now.

Hope so! I suppose we'll find out if I ever upgrade my clutch :)

Re: Good news for Evo X GSR owners - CMC RECALL!
 

Great news all the way around :)

We have a several of the new CMC's in stock. So people may call service (651-483-9106) and start scheduling appointments for replacement at any time!

Please make sure that when you call you do two things: make sure that we hold the part for you (as we only have so many at the moment), and check on availability of service loaners. We only have so many and can't always pay for enterprise cars for you. Time estimate is 5-6 hours.

Also good news for those of you who have already replaced yours: You may be eligible for reimbursement!!! Details for that will be in the letter that you should be receiving some time this month.

Re: Good news for Evo X GSR owners - CMC RECALL!
 

Anyone heard of someone getting reimbursed? I talked to mitsubishi and they told me that I have to have my cmc replaced, even though it's a 9 cmc. They would then review it and could possibly partially reimburse me. Honestly I don't want it replaced with the plastic one, also the closest mitsu dealer to me is at least an hour and a half away. Not really a big deal to get any money out of it, but damnit haha.

Re: Good news for Evo X GSR owners - CMC RECALL!
 

I don't know about the reimbursement part yet. Supposedly the details are in the letter you are going to receive. I have not gotten mine yet.

I'm in the same boat. I have a IX CMC in my X too.

Re: Good news for Evo X GSR owners - CMC RECALL!
 

I would say if you already have a IX CMC then just leave well enough alone.

Re: Good news for Evo X GSR owners - CMC RECALL!
 

Yea I will most likely not pursue anything. But I figured if they are giving out money I'll take some haha.

Re: Good news for Evo X GSR owners - CMC RECALL!
 

Ugh I have a spare OEM CMC sitting on the shelf waiting for replacement...bought it last year so I'd have one ready to rock. Think Mitsu would take it back for credit or something?

Re: Good news for Evo X GSR owners - CMC RECALL!
 

I'd say they would if you still have your invoice or receipt.

Re: Good news for Evo X GSR owners - CMC RECALL!
 

Better start digging through my 10,000 different receipts...i have an entire drawer dedicated to evo parts...sad kinda :)

Re: Good news for Evo X GSR owners - CMC RECALL!
 

Got my recall notice in the mail today....woot!

Re: Good news for Evo X GSR owners - CMC RECALL!
 

Got mine yesterday too. It has an address to ship info if you already had it put in/fixed by someone else. I am going to try my luck there and give them several receipts.

Re: Good news for Evo X GSR owners - CMC RECALL!
 

I got a postcard from my dealership two weeks ago and the official notice from Mitsu on Thursday.
