Recall Gripe
My CMC failed last week so I called Mitsubishi to see if mine had been replaced under the safety recall, since Im not the first owner. I was told it had been completed in 2013.
When I tear into the car, I see that Im still on the plastic OEM master cylinder. Would it be worth my time to send my gripes to Mitsubishi? If not, no biggie, mostly just wanted to b*tch haha

Nah. Save yourself the time (because you're gonna need a bunch of it for what I'm about to suggest) and get the Magnus Evo 8/9 CMC upgrade, using the OEM Mitsubishi master. And never look back.
Mine was replaced under recall, and yes the replacement is indeed a plastic one as well. Looks like a childs toy compared to the metal version found in all older Evos. My OEM replacement didn't explode, but even on the stock clutch was leaking brake fluid slightly, past the seals and down the firewall inside the car. I upgraded to the Magnus CMC since their shop is 20 minutes from where I work, replaced the slave with OEM as well, and everything is new and feels amazing.

Well then you're set! Should be smooth sailing from now on. I was standing in the empty engine bay when I pulled the stock POS plastic one out. I was in disbelief to see it turns and unlocks like a lightbulb in a socket... I'm pretty sure I took the master, as well as the chunk of line that was still attached to it and whipped it across the shop floor in disgust.
What were they thinking?
