There are also unconfirmed cases where 3s's have randomly started on fire which is thought (though unconfirmed) to be caused by the ecu.
That's where I think this has gone all wrong... An ECU is not just a computing device. it is a large array of drivers and switches that DO degrade and fail.. I replace PCMs, TCMs, airbag controllers, body controllers, and all forms of electronics all the time.. Considering the vast number of them in service, and the number of them I've had to replace compared to AC/Delco, Motorcraft, and many others.. My experience would indicate Mitsubishi designs are one of the more reliable on the market..
