Umm, the Eclipse is notorious for crank walk...not just one car...but the make and model. Go read up on some DSM forums.

I just dont see the point on saying the realiability is so bad

Yeah now you are taking words out of my mouth.
and I never said that all Eclipses were bad either.
often times the average customer may not know what the problem is so the dealer just fixes the problem and the customer pays for it.
and for the record I didn't say that reliability was so bad. show me where I said that?

Umm, bolt ons won't do anything for crank walk...I assume you know what that is.

I want to know how bolt ons will prevent crank walk.
