Something is abnormal in Normal, Illiniois. Mitsubishi is halting sales of its 2006 Eclipse after reports of flawed brake systems, which could cause failure, surfaced from the company's Normal plant. The company filed a report with the National Highway Traffic Safety AdMinistration, indicating nearly 1200 cars could be affected by the glitch, with 44 already in the hands of consumers. Officials say the problem will be solved in production by the end of the week, and that Mitsubishi technicians will make house calls to check consumers' cars.
