2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER Complaints

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.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT. WHILE DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. ALSO, THE PARKING BRAKE FAILED TO OPERATE AND THE VEHICLE ROLLED WHEN PARKED ON AN INCLINE. THE PARKING BRAKE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THE CONTACT SPOKE WITH KELLY MITSUBISHI-EMMAUS (536 STATE AVE, EMMAUS, PA 18049) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT ASSOCIATED THE POWER TRAIN FAILURE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V563000 (POWER TRAIN) AND THE PARKING BRAKE FAILURE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V070000 (PARKING BRAKE). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 84,000.

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.

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.

TRANSMISSION HESITATES WHILE DRIVING, THEN IT JUMPS. WHEN IT JUMPS IT SURGES. WE THOUGHT IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION. OUR SON SAID IT MAYBE THE RELAY SWITCH TO DO WITH THE CVT ENGINE. IT IS SETTING IN TH DRIVEWAY .

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.
