NHTSA Mandated Recalls
  • Recall 140088 [USA]: Air bags that do not deploy as designed in a crash increase the risk of injury.
    Mitsubishi motors north america, inc. (mmna) is recalling certain 2014-2018 mirage vehicles. The internal acceleration sensor in the supplemental restraint system (srs) electronic control unit (ecu) can misinterpret vibrations such as those from poor road conditions or a flat tire to be a sensor error thereby disabling the air bags from deploying in a crash.
    mmna will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the srs-ecu software, free of charge. The recall began on november 10, 2017. Owners may contact mmna customer service at 1-888-648-7820. Mmna's number for this recall is sr-17-006.
    owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.Safercar.Gov.

  • Recall R/2018/347 [UK]: Inappropriate ecu program for the battery deterioration judgment (state of charge)
    Inappropriate ecu program for battery deterioration judgement.
    reprogram the software with the countermeasure software.

  • Recall 2021377 [Canada]: Brakes
    Issue: this service campaign is for certain replacement rear brake drums that were sold by mitsubishi dealers. The brake drums may have been made with wheel stud holes that are too large. As a result, a wheel stud could spin when tightening the wheel nut. This can reduce the clamping force between the wheel and the brake drum. If this happens, the wheel may eventually come loose and could separate from the vehicle. Note: this service campaign is not being conducted under the requirements of the motor vehicle safety act. Safety risk: a wheel that cannot be properly tightened could increase the risk of a wheel separation. This could increase the risk of a crash. A wheel that separates could also hit another person or vehicle. Corrective actions: mitsubishi will contact owners that may have had these brake drums replaced at a mitsubishi dealer. They will advise affected owners to take their vehicle to a dealer, who will replace any affected brake drum(s).

  • Recall 2017532 [Canada]: Airbag
    On certain vehicles, the internal self-diagnostic of the airbag control module may interpret vibrations caused by severe road conditions and/or driving on a flat tire as being a system fault. This would disable the airbag system. As a result, the airbags would not deploy in a crash that warrants their deployment, which would increase the risk of injury. Correction: dealers will update vehicle software.
