  • Recall 2018507 [Canada]: Other
    On certain vehicles, an issue in the software used by the electronic control unit responsible for managing the forward collision mitigation (fcm) feature may cause it to not operate as intended alerting the driver to brake unnecessarily in certain situations. If the driver attempts to brake while fcm is also activating, the vehicle may decelerate rapidly. This could create a situation where another motorist does not anticipate a preceding vehicle’s sudden brake application or stop, creating the risk of a rear-end collision causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will update the software for the forward collision mitigation system.

  • Recall 2017475 [Canada]: Engine
    On certain vehicles, defective electrical relays may have been installed in the power distribution center. This could cause various electrical circuits to fail, potentially resulting in engine stalling, reduced engine power, or loss of engine cooling fan function potentially resulting in engine overheating. These issues could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will replace affected relay(s) with updated parts.

I've had my routine maintenance done on this vehicle since i financed it back in june of 2019 which was at 47k miles. There was no issues, i had my last maintenance done in october at 70k miles. My transmission showed no signs of going out , there's no leakage of any sort. It just decided saturday, january 2 of 2021 that it was just going to go out. I took it to the dealership january 5th, and he told me it'll be $7035.09 to replace. I feel as though there should be a recall on this transmission just like the recalls for the 2016 models. The dash just now says transmission service required. It was so sudden! I was at 35mph and the car began to shudder upon acceleration while driving saturday. So, i had to drive at least 10miles back home at 20mph, because i wasn't sure of what the issue was at that moment. I had a mechanic check the transmission fluid and he says that there wasn't a drop of fluid in there. When i go get maintenance done i am trusting them to make sure i have everything checked in order for me to fell trust and be safe while driving a vehicle that i financed from them. I could've had a accident or anything. They've only checked what they were paid to do and that was the oil change without ever checking my transmission fluid. Theres no holes nor any leakage the code ran and says P084A transmission has internal damage. I've replaced the windshield wiper twice and the takes a while to defrost the wiper blades move slowly when turned to the max when theres a storm.

The vehicle was serviced at the place of purchase, a mitsubishi dealership, to replace the bulbs which again went out within 7 months. Next, the bulbs were replaced at the mitsubishi dealership only to lose them again on vehicle startup 12 - 13 months later. I was left with no lights in the dark and subject to getting to an area of safety with family in the car.

I cannot understand how my vehicle was not added to the engine stall recall even with these problems replicating what mitsubishi identifies in there past recalls. This is very dangerous because macanics or diagnostic computers cannot identify problems with the car but after driving it for a good while or maybe a few hours the car could just shut off in the middle of no where in a highway which has already happened to me endangering me and my family. I write to nhtsa today so that my vehicle as urgently as possible can be included in a investigation for this vehicle to be included in mitsubishi's recall.

I bought the car new from the dealer with 6,000 miles on it. July of 2018 the left rear caliper failed and damaged the rotor. I brought the car in and the rotor, brake pads and caliper were replaced. On april 15, 2019 i brought the car in to dealer service this time it was the right rear caliper that failed and damaged the rotor. The dealer then changed the right rear caliper rotor and brake pads. When changing the pads on the left side they found the left side now leaking. The car was at the dealer service from april 15th- may 3rd. They told me the calipers were on back order. What is going on with these calipers? Should there be a recall on these defective calipers?

Has been happening for a few days now i try to start the car and it seems as it will fail me soon. I went to a mechanic and they told me it's a problem with the ignition or starter. It's a new car bought it brand new in 2017. I believe they should also recall the 2017 mitsubishi outlander sport. Also seat belts don't lock .

Vehicle first presented with the check engine soon light illuminating. This happened simultaneously with the engine losing speed. The car decreased by ten mph while i was driving on a major highway. With the foot pushing down on the gas pedal no acceleration was about to occur for several seconds. The vehicle then returned control back to me and i was able to regain highway speeds. I have taken to the local mitsubishi dealer beginning as far back as sept of 2018 this car five times fully under warranty. Five times they returned the car assuring me the problem was resolved. I have recall sr-17-005 of certain outlanders and lancers that i located online. Under the nhtsa website my vin is not under recall, however the relay is what they told me was wrong and repaired. The experiences and description of symptoms match recall accordingly. The check engine light illuminated again yesterday 04/22/19 and i will again be returning to the dealership. Now though i have lost my confidence in their ability to rectify the problem.

Glass spontaneously crumbled and shattered on rear passenger door. The vehicle was parked at home in my driveway. We were getting into the vehicle as usual in the morning to leave for the day. The door was not slammed, there were no visible cracks, scratches, or chips on the glass. No visible damage to the vehicle or blunt objects in the area that would indicate foul play. We could not find anything that would explain such a random breaking of the glass. My daughter sustained minor cuts on her leg from the glass falling into the rear passenger seat. First aid was given, but no immediate medical attention was necessary.

I have had the vehicle for only a little over a year (bought it march of 2018 with only 12,046 miles). Since i have had the vehicle, i have had to replace the headlight bulb on the passenger side a total of 4 times and a total of 3 times on the driver side (which is currently blown now, which will make a total of 4 times once i replace it). Once i replace the bulb one side, the bulb goes out on the other side about a week later. A couple of times i have thought a bulb would go out, and it would start working again. I was advised that maybe it was condensation, but there is no condensation. Also, when driving, my radio console turns off and restarts as if i am just starting the vehicle up. Around the time this has happened, a headlight bulb usually blows out. I have contacted mitsubishi, which i was advised that this is the first time that they heard of this and there are no recalls, but under my own research, i have found multiple forums where owners of outlanders have had the same issue with their vehicles.
