2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SHUDDERED AND STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. ADDITIONALLY, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL SOUND COMING FROM THE VEHICLE WHILE CHANGING GEARS. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO PRESTIGE KIA (3525 WI-93 TRUNK, EAU CLAIRE, WI 54701) WHERE SHE WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE SERVICED UNLESS A WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. UPON INVESTIGATION, THE CONTACT LINKED HER FAILURE TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V563000 (POWER TRAIN) HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

I WENT TO MY DEALER WITH THE RECALL LETTER. THEY SPRAYED IT NOT REPLACE IT. NOT LIKE THE LETTER SAID TO DO.I AM AFRAID FOR MY SAFETY.

MY CAR STARTED TO EXPERIENCE A SURGE CONDITION WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND A TRANSMISSION SERVICE REQUIRED IS SHOWN AT THE DASHBOARD ALONG WITH A CODE P084A THAT WAS SCANNED AT THE DEALER. NOW THE DEALER IS TELLING ME THAT I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. I ASKED HOW COME MY CAR IS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL THAT MITSUBISHI DID FOR 2015 OUTLANDER SPORT BACK IN APRIL OF 2020, SINCE THE SYMPTOMS ARE THE SAME AS PER THE TSB-20-23-001 AND THEY TOLD ME THAT, IT GOES ONLY BY THE VIN #, AND MY CAR IS NOT LISTED. NOW THEY OFFERED MY A NEW TRANSMISSION FOR ALMOST $7K OR A USED ONE FOR $3.5 K I JUST CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY THIS AMOUNT OF MONEY, MY CAR BARELY PASSED 100K (117K TO BE EXACT)

THE VEHICLE LAGS DURING GEAR SHIFTS AND HAS A BIG LAG WHEN STARTING TO DRIVE. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME, BUT WILL HAPPEN WHEN YOU LEAST EXPECT IT. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM, WHICH I HAD DONE. BUT WHEN THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO DO THIS AFTER THE RECALL WAS COMPLETE, RED DEER MITSUBISHI IN RED DEER ALBERTA REFUSED TO LOOK ANY FURTHER, OR CONTACT HEAD OFFICE. PLEASE NOTE: 1. TIMING OF EVENTS WAS AROUND THE ORIGINAL RECALL. 2. I LIVE IN CANADA SO I HAD TO USE ALASKA AS THE STATE, AND I HADTO MAKE UP A ZIP CODE. MY REAL ADDRESS IS ABOVE THAT. 3. WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN? I AM GUESSING THE DATE. *CC *TR

SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT, SLOW EMISSIONS LEAK. IT WAS AT THE GAS CAP. RUST AROUND FILLER TUBE. NEEDED TO REMOVE RUST SO GAS CAP MAKES GOOD DEAL. SLOW ACCELERATE WITH TRANSMISSION AND NOISE FROM LOWER CONTROL ARM

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.

MY REAR DRIVERS SIDE BRAKE CALIPER FROZE LAST YEAR AND CURRENTLY MY REAR HTTPS://HOODSITE.COM/PASSENGER BRAKE CALIPER IS FROZEN. THE OTHER DAY I WAS DRIVING AND I NOTICED A CONSTANT SCRAPING SOUND, I WAS ABLE TO JACK UP THE CAR AND SPIN THE TIRE AND CONFIRM THAT THE BRAKE IS MAKING CONTACT WITH THE ROTOR. *TR

AT 56K MILES THE TACHOMETER WOULD REV UP TO 5 WHILE MAINTAINING AN EVEN SPEED, THEN WHEN GOING UP HILLS THERE WAS NO POWER. VERY SUDDEN ISSUE NO WARNING, THEN WARNING LIGHT SERVICE TRANSMISSION REQUIRED CAME ON. VERY FRUSTRATED - MY FIRST MITSUBISHI AND I WANT IT GONE. I'VE SEEN RECALLS FOR THIS YEAR BUT MY VIN SAYS THERE ARE NONE. *TR

MY VEHICLE WAS PART OF A RECALL FOR TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. I AM BEING TOLD IT HAS NO CURRENT OPEN RECALLS AND SINCE I AM THE SECOND OWNER I DO NOT HAVE A WARRANTY. I'M CURRENTLY HAVING TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION ON MY 5 YEAR OLD VEHICLE WITH ONLY 43,000 MILES FOR THE EXACT SAME ISSUES LISTED IN THE RECALL.*DT*JB

2015 MITSUBISHI STARTED SPUTTERRING WHILE WAITING FOR RED LIGHT AND HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATING. CHECK ENGINE CAME ON. LOOKS LIKE THERE ARE OTHER SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, BUT WHEN I LOOKED UP THE RECALL MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED. *TR
