TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNDISCLOSED SPEED, THE VEHICLE SHUDDERED AND STALLED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER THE VEHICLE STALLED, THE SERVICE TRANSMISSION WARNING LIGHT BRIEFLY ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CVT TRANSMISSION AND PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 116,000.

ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO MY VEHICLE STARTED ACTING UP ON AND OFF. WHEN EVER MY A/C IS ON AND I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP LIKE A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGNS MY TRUCK GETS TO JERKING, IDLING UP AND MAJORITY OF THE TIME IT SHUTS OFF. IT WILL STARTED BACK UP AFTER A FEW MINUTES BUT I WILL HAVE TO TURN EVERYTHING OFF LIKE HEAD LIGHTS, EMERGENCY FLASHES. ALSO IF I AM SITTING IN THE SITTING IN MY TRUCK WITH THE AIR RUNNING IT JERKS AND TRIES TO CUT OFF, UNLESS I TURN OF THE AC COMPRESSOR, JUST LIKE IF I COME TO A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, AS LONG AS I TURN OFF THE AC COMPRESSOR MY TRUCK WANT CUT OFF. NOW, IT WAS A COUPLE OF TIMES I WAS MAKING A TURN AND COMING OFF A GAS STATION LOT AND IT JUST OFF.

I HAVE A 2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT I BROUGHT BRAND NEW OFF THE LOT. IN THE SUMMER OF 2019, THE "REMOVE KEY" LIGHT WOULD COME ON AFTER MY KEY WAS REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION. .ON 12/19/19, MY CAR WOULD NOT TURN OVER TO START AND THE "REMOVE KEY" LIGHT STAYED ON. I HAD CAR TOWED TO THE DEALER. DEALER SAID KEY CYLINDER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND MY BATTERY WAS DEAD. I REPLACED THE BATTERY AND TOLD THEM THIS WAS THE 4TH BATTERY I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE WITH THIS CAR. I BOUGHT NEW BATTERY AND DEALER ORDERED PART. THE KEY CYLINDER PART CAME IN AND WAS REPLACED ON 01/09/20. ON 01/20/20, THE "REMOVE KEY" LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND MY CAR WOULD NOT START. TOWED CAR BACK TO SAME DEALER WHO FOUND KEY CYLINDER WAS INCORRECTLY INSTALLED AND REINSTALLED CYLINDER. TODAY 01/22/20, THE "REMOVE KEY" LIGHT CAME BACK ON. I'M WAITING FOR A CALL BACK TODAY FROM THE SAME DEALER TO SEE IF THERE'S ANYTHING ELSE THAT CAN BE DONE. THE "REMOVE KEY" LIGHT PREVENTS YOU FROM LOCKING THE DOORS NORMALLY, WHILE SITTING IN THE CAR, I HAD TO LOCK ALL DOORS BEFORE REMOVING KEY FROM IGNITION. THE "REMOVE KEY" LIGHT TURNS ON WHEN I REMOVE KEY. THEN AFTER I EXIT THE CAR AND CLOSE THE DRIVER DOOR, I HAVE TO USE MY KEY TO LOCK MY DRIVER DOOR. OTHERWISE I CAN'T LOCK ALL OF MY CAR DOORS WITH THE KEY OR KEY FOB AND HAVE TO GET BACK IN THE RESTART CAR AND START CYCLE OVER. I ASKED DEALER TO CHECK ELECTRICAL SYSTEM BECAUSE I HAVE REPLACED THE CAR BATTERY 4 TIMES ON THIS CAR ALREADY WHICH IS RIDICULOUS AND COSTS ME MONEY SINCE IT'S NOT COVERED IN MY CAR WARRANTY OR EXTENDED WARRANTY. I ONLY HAVE LESS THEN 34,000 MILES ON MY CAR. DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS ON REMEDYING THIS ISSUE?? DID I PURCHASE A LEMON?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT UPON ACCELERATING FROM A COMPLETE STOP, THE VEHICLE WOULD STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HESITATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN(TIN-15-23-001) WHICH HE LINKED TO THE FAILURE.

EXTREME FRAYING OF THE SEATBELT.

I BOUGHT MY VEHICLE TOWARDS THE END OF OCTOBER WITH LESS THAN 40000 MILES AND I KEEP ENCOUNTERING AN ACCELERATION ISSUE AND HIGH ENGINE RPM, THE ISSUES PERIODICALLY 'RESOLVE' THEM SELF ONLY TO COME BACK A LITTLE FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD, THE ISSUES I ENCOUNTER AREN'T EXACTLY THE SAME BUT I THINK THEY ARE VERY CLOSELY RELATED/CONNECTED TO EACH OTHER; ACCELERATING FROM LOW SPEED (0-30): I TEND TO NOTICE AN ACCELERATION PROBLEM AROUND 0-30 MPH WHERE I HAVE MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL AND THE VEHICLE IS MOVING AND IS ACCELERATING, ACCELERATION IS VERY, VERY SLOW AND IT FEELS AS THOUGH SOMETHING IN/ON MY VEHICLE IS GIVING WHAT I CAN ONLY DESCRIBE AS 'RESISTANCE' TO ACCELERATE, THE FEELING IS VERY WEIRD AND I HAVE NEVER FELT ANYTHING QUITE LIKE IT AND I LACK THE VOCABULARY TO TRULY EXPLAIN WHAT THE ISSUE FEELS LIKE BUT I DO KNOW FOR CERTAIN THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG. HIGH ENGINE SPEEDS DURING 0-~60 MPH ACCELERATION: WHEN I NEED TO ACCELERATE TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC GOING 45-65 MPH (ACCELERATING FROM 0-30 MPH RANGE) MY ENGINE SPEED APPROACHES 6000 RPM BUT NEVER ENTERS THE RED AREA BEHIND THE GAUGE, I OFTEN NEED TO ACCELERATE FROM THE 0-30 MPH RANGE TO 45-65 MPH RANGE TO JUMP ONTO A HIGHWAY OR FREEWAY AND MY ENGINE SPEEDS GET MUCH HIGHER THAN ANYTHING I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED BEFORE. I SUSPECT THE AUTOMATIC SHIFTING MECHANISM IS BROKEN OR IS MADE POORLY. I HAVE BROUGHT MY VEHICLE INTO A GENUINE MITSUBISHI DEALERSHIP AND HAD THEM RUN A COMPLETE DIAGNOSTIC, EVEN A DIAGNOSTIC ON MY TRANSMISSION WITH EVERYTHING COMING BACK FINE. I HONESTLY DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE ISSUE IS BUT I HAVE DOCUMENTS VERIFYING THAT NOTHING IS WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE BUT NO DIAGNOSIS, HOWEVER I WAS TOLD THAT MY FLUID WAS GOOD FOR ANOTHER YEAR, THE TRANSMISSION MIGHT STILL BE "LEARNING' MY DRIVING STYLE, AND MY VEHICLE HAS A BRAKE 'PRIMING' SYSTEM THAT HELPS STOP YOUR VEHICLE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE TRANSMISSION STARTED TO FAIL. THIS ISSUES OCCURRED OVERNIGHT!

THE VEHICLE STALLS WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONING/ HEATING IS TURNED ON AND SOMETIMES THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND IN TRAFFIC WHILE HE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND WHILE WAITING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR STOP SIGN..

THIS HAPPENS ALMOST ALL THE TIME - WHEN DRIVING AT CITY STREET SPEED OF 25 MPH AND UNDER MY CAR SHAKES SO MUCH AND DOES NOT ACCELERATE AND FEELS LIKE IT IS GOING TO SHUT DOWN. ON 3 OCCASIONS I WAS REAR ENDED BECAUSE OF THIS AND ONE TIME WAS WITH A HUGE SANITATION TRUCK WITH MY CHILDREN INSIDE THE CAR. I HAVE TAKEN THIS CAR TO THE DEALER AND THE MITSUBISHI DEALER TO BE LOOKED AT AND HELP TO NO AVAIL IT STILL DOES IT. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO MITSUBISHI MOTORS AND WAS GIVEN A CASE NUMBER BUT TO DATE NO ONE HAS CONTACTED ME NOR HELPED ME. I AM SCARED FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND MYSELF - IT IS A VERY SCARY SITUATION AND I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR ABOUT A YEAR AGO. HELP ME BECAUSE NO ONE ELSE DOES.

THIS IS THE 4TH TIME I WILL BE REPLACING MY TRANSMISSION. IT JERKS AND THEN FAILS. I CANNOT CHANGE SHIFTS, IT TAKES ABOUT A MINUTE THEN IT WILL MOVE. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO MITSUBISHI AND THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE WHOLE TRANSMISSION, I ALSO WORK AT A DEALER AND KNOW THERE IS A RECALL. THIS TIME WHEN I CALLED AND ASKED THEM TO BUY IT BACK AS A LEMON, THEY ARE NOW TELLING ME THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION. I CAN KEEP REPLACING MY TRANSMISSION EVERY 4K MILES AND RISKING MY LIFE IF IT FAILS ON THE FREEWAY THAT I TAKE EVERYDAY FR WORK.

MY CAR HAD HAD 3 TRANSMISSIONS REPLACED I'M THE PAST YEAR. IT WILL BE GOING IN FOR IT'S FOURTH TRANSMISSION. IT HAS 54,0000 MILES ON IT. THE CAR WOULD T MOVE AND I ALMOST GOT HIT IN THE REAR ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY IN OHIO.

TRANSMISSION FAILURE. NEEDS TO BE REPLACED COMPLETELY.

WHEN THE BACK WINDOWS ARE DOWN THERE IS A HORRIBLE VIBRATION NOISE. IT DOES NOT GO AWAY UNTIL THE WINDOWS ARE UP ALL THE WAY. IT'S ONLY WITH THE BACK WINDOWS AND IT'S VERY ANNOYING AND DISTRACTING. IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE BACK WINDOWS ARE DOWN, EVEN JUST ONE WINDOW DOWN IN THE REAR CAUSES THIS TO HAPPEN. I'M SURPRISED IT HASN'T CAUSED AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE IT'S SO VERY DISTRACTING!!!! VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE MOVING.

I OWN A 2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT WITH 110,000 MILES ON IT. OTHER THAN THE RECALLS I HAVE HAD NO ISSUES. FREQUENT OIL CHANGES, BRAKES, BASIC MAINTENANCE NOTHING ELSE. MINOR ACCELERATION ISSUES AS PER THE RECALL. I WAS DRIVING HOME ON THE PARKWAY AT THE SPEED LIMIT OF 65MPH AND HEARD A SUDDEN KNOCK, THE CAR SHUDDERED AND DIED. THANKFULLY I REACTED QUICKLY AND PULLED OVER THE MINUTE I KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG. I GOT OUT AND THERE WAS OIL ALL OVER THE ROAD WAY. BEING A NOVICE MECHANIC I PRETTY MUCH KNEW THE ENGINE WAS DEAD. TOWED TO HEALEY BRS MITSUBISHI BEACON NY AND 4 DAYS LATER THEY CONFIRMED THAT THERE WAS A HOLE IN THE ENGINE AND IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THEY HAD NO EXPLANATION FOR THE SUDDEN FAILURE BUT DID CONFIRM THAT IT WAS SUDDEN AND NOT DUE TO ANY LACK OF MAINTENANCE ON MY PART. THE CAR IS 3 YEARS OLD WITH SUDDEN ENGINE FAILURE, ON A DARK HIGHWAY ON CHRISTMAS EVE. I AM THANKFUL THAT I WAS SAFE BUT STILL WANT AN EXPLANATION. A FRIEND OF MINE WHO USED TO WORK FOR MITSUBISHI INFORMED ME THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE THIRD PISTON ON THESE ENGINES BUT THE MECHANIC IN BEACON WOULD NOT CONFIRM EITHER WAY.

I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY WHEN THE TRANSMISSION STARTED FEELING LIKE IT WAS SLIPPING. I PULLED OVER CHECKED ALL THE FLUIDS AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE. I WAS MILES FROM THE NEAREST TOWN. SO I STARTED DRIVING AGAIN AND 2 MILES DOWN THE ROAD THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN THIS HAPPENED THE CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING AND STARTED REVVING UP. I TURNED THE HAZARD ON AND PULLED OFF ONTO THE SIDE OF A BUSY HIGHWAY. I TRIED TO ACCELERATE AGAIN AND THE ENGINE REVED AGAIN. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND STARTED IT AGAIN THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT WENT OFF. I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND WAS ABLE TO BACK UP TO GET FURTHER OVER OFF THE ROAD. I TRIED TO PUT IT IN DRIVE AND THE CAR WOULDN'T MOVE BUT THE LIGHT REMAINED OFF. I CALLED A TOW TRUCK AND HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A SAFE LOCATION. I TOOK IT TO A DEALER SHIP AND THEY CLAIMED IT WAS THE CVT AND IT WAS INTERNAL. I WOULD HAVE TO HAVE TO WHOLE UNIT REPLACED. THEY QUOTED ME AROUND 7,000. MY BROTHER-IN-LAW CALLED TO GET MORE INFO AND THEY QUOTED HIM AROUND 4,000. THERE ARE 108,000 MILES ON MY 2015. SO IT'S OVER WARRANTY AND I FELT LIKE THEY WERE TRYING TO RIP ME OFF. I HAVE SEEN SIMILAR RECALLS FOR THIS TYPE OF THING HAPPENING. I AM CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AND OTHERS WITH THIS HAPPENING OUT OF NOWHERE.

WE PURCHASED OUR 2015 OUTLANDER IN FEB 2017 WITH ONLY 25,000 MILES. IT WAS MANUFACTURED IN JULY 2015 WITH A 2.0 LITER ENGINE. THERE IS A RECALL FOR SHUDDERING ENGINES FOR THIS VEHICLE DURING THIS TIME, HOWEVER OUT VIN DID NOT APPEAR ON THE RECALL LIST. WHEN I AM STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT OR SLOW DOWN, THEN TRY TO SPEED UP, THE TRANSMISSION SHUTTERS AND JUMPS FORWARD. THERE IS NOW ANOTHER ISSUE RESULTING IN THE VEHICLE TO INCREASE RPM'S WITHOUT GAINING SPEED. WITH FURTHER INSPECTION, THERE WAS NO TRANSMISSION FLUID IN THE RESERVE. THIS VEHICLE IS NOW ONLY AT 34,000 MILES. I SCHEDULED A WARRANTY MAINTENANCE VISIT, THE DEALER DOESN'T HAVE AVAILABILITY FOR ANOTHER MONTH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHOOK AND FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE TRANSMISSION SERVICE AND CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PUENTE HILL MITSUBISHI (17665 CASTLETON ST, CITY OF INDUSTRY, CA 91748, (626) 964-5111) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER NEEDED TO BE RESET. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED SERVICE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO PUENTE HILL MITSUBISHI WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION AND THE CVT UNIT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,000.

AT ONLY 76,000 MILES, MY VEHICLE STARTED TO SHUDDER WHEN GOING ANYWHERE FROM 10 MPH-40 MPH. THIS STARTED WHEN I WAS ON A CITY STREET BUT CONTINUED ON THE HIGHWAY. THERE IS A LAG IN ACCELERATION WHEN GOING FROM NEUTRAL TO DRIVE. MY TRANSMISSION SERVICE LIGHT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON SO, I TOOK THE CAR IN TO A MITSUBISHI DEALERSHIP AND THEY NOTIFIED ME THAT AFTER THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND TEST DRIVING IT, THEY SIMPLY HAD TO RESET THE SENSOR. AFTER LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP, THE TRANSMISSION SERVICE LIGHT WENT ON AND MY CAR WAS STILL SHUDDERING WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. AFTER GETTING A TRANSMISSION SERVICE, WHICH IS WHAT I WAS ADVISED TO DO BY THE MITSUBISHI MECHANICS, THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTED. I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED FROM THE DEALERSHIP WITH ONLY 40,000 MILES. AT 76,000 THERE SHOULD NOT BE ANY MAJOR TRANSMISSION OR ENGINE ISSUES. I AM NOW UNABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR IN FEAR THAT I WILL END UP IN A CAR ACCIDENT.

DURING INITIAL ACCELERATION FROM A STANDSTILL, OR WHEN ACCELERATING AGAIN AFTER EITHER CONSTANT SPEED OPERATION OR COASTING THE TRANSMISSION WILL DELAY IN THE VEHICLE ACCELERATING. WHILE AT 60-65 MPH THE VEHICLE WILL FLUCTUATE IN RPM AND TRY TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN. THE SERVICE TRANSMISSION LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN GOING OFF AND ON SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED IN OCTOBER 2017. WHEN BRINGING IT IN FOR SERVICE DEALER SAYS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. I WENT TO AUTOZONE WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON AND IT IS STATING THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER BANK 1 HAS ISSUES. SO WHEN I PARKED IT THIS MORNING 4-24-18 BECAUSE OF THE LIGHT GOING ONE FOR THE TRANSMISSION, I TRIED STARTING IT AND IT STARTED BUT HESITATED AND THEN ALL THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS WENT OFF. I BELIEVE THERE IS SOMETHING UP WITH THE ECU TOO. I KNOW THERE ARE RECALLS FOR 2015 OUTLANDER SPORTS BUT WHY NOT MINE WHEN I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. THANK YOU

MY 2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT DEVELOPED TRANSMISSION PROBLEM AND WARNING LIGHT CAME ON INCLUDING ENGINE SERVICE LIGHT. IT ONLY HAS 34173 MILES ON IT. I RESEARCHED THAT IT HAD A RECALL FOR A DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION HOSE ASSEMBLY BUT MITSUBISHI NO LONGER LISTS THE RECALL. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THAT MY VEHICLE GETS REPAIRED AS THE MANUFACTURING DATE OF THE VEHICLE FALLS IN THE TIME WHEN THIS ISSUE WAS NOT DETECTED DURING ASSEMBLY.
