AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AT MULTIPLE STOP LIGHTS, AND TRYING TO ACCELERATE AGAIN, THE CAR FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE RPMS DID NOT MOVE, NOR DID THE ENGINE SOUND LIKE IT WAS ACCELERATING.

I NEVER RECEIVED THE LETTER CONCERNING THE ACCELERATION PROBLEM WITH MY CAR. I KNOW THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING WITH MY AUTO BUT THOUGHT IT WAS NORMAL!! ALSO, THE LOWBEAM ON THE HEADLIGHTS IS TOO LOW!! I HAVE TO DRIVE ON HIGHBEAM TO SEE THE ROAD!!

ONE DAY MY TRUCK JUST STARTING LOSING POWER IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I PULLED OVER AND RESTARTED THE CAR. IT STARTED BUT WASN'T WAS STALLING. I GOT TO SAFETY. BROUGHT TRANSMISSION FLUID AND PUT IN IT. IT HELPED ME GET HOME. CALLED DEALERSHIP NEXT DATE CAR STILL UNDER WARRANTY. WAS TOLD THAT I PUT WRONG FLUID SO THE WARRANTY IS INVALID. HAD ARBITRATOR FOUND NO MANUFACTURING ISSUE EVEN THOUGH TWO RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE AND ONE SPECIFICALLY STATES WHAT HAPPENED TO MY TRUCK IS DUE TO THIS RECALL. TRUCK LOSES POWER FREQUENTLY. AFRAID TO DRIVE IT, BUT GAVE NO CHOICE.

2/5, NOTICED MY VEHICLE WAS LOSING POWER WHILE DRIVING....THOUGHT IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION...ALL DEALERSHIPS WAS CLOSED...I HAD TO PUT FLUID IN THE VEHICLE TO GET HOME...CALLED DEALERSHIP EARLY MONDAY MORNING, TOLD THEM MY PROBLEM...WAS GIVEN EARLIEST DAYS ON TUESDAY MORNING. TOOK VEHICLE IN AND CALLED LATER THAT DAY AND TOLD BECAUSE OF THE 1 QT OF TRANSMISSION FLUID I USED, WHICH I WAS TOLD WAS THE WRO6KIND...THEY COULDN'T FIX MY VEHICLE EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE TH AT CAUSES THE TRANSMISSION TO LOSE POWER WHICH IT DID...NO ONE IS OFFERING A SOLUTION...I KEEP BEING TOLD THAT BECAUSE I PUT THE WRONG TYPE OF FLUID, THAT MADE THE WARRANTY INVALID I WOULD NOT HAD TO PUT THE FLUID IN THE VEHICLE HAD IT BEEN PERFORMING PROPERLY. NEVER WAS NOTIFIED OF RECALL, FOUND THIS PUT WHEN I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP AND RESEARCH

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 16V563000 (POWER TRAIN) AND 16V548000 (POWER TRAIN). THE DEALER COMPLETED BOTH REPAIRS, BUT THE REMEDY PROVIDED NO SOLUTION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HESITATED AND JERKED SEVERAL TIMES SHORTLY AFTER BOTH RECALL REPAIRS WERE PERFORMED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

DRIVER SIDE FRONT POWER WINDOW MAKES THE ENTIRE DOOR PANEL MAKE NOISE ANYTIME IT IS ROLLED UP. HAVE TAKEN IT INTO THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES FOR ISSUES, IT ONLY REMAINS FIXED FOR A FEW CYCLES OF THE WINDOW. IT'S LIKE A CREAKING PLASTICY NOISE, NONE OF THE OTHER WINDOWS DO THIS. SEVERELY ANNOYING ON SOMETHING SO NEW WITH LESS THAN 7K MILES, AND EMBARRASSING WITH CUSTOMERS IN VEHICLE.
