2016 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER Complaints

The transmission is not working properly. It has a hesitation and causes car to lunge forward.

My wife and I were at the beach when the truck started jerking really bad. I knew from the motion that transmission was locking up. We stayed 2 nights until we tried to make it home and it would slip in and out of gear. Transmission Maintenance light came on and once we made a complete stop. It acted as it didn’t want to move then would take off like a rocket. I’ve seen several models have recall on this issue but not my VIN which I find very strange.

I was driving down the highway with my son in the car and it started jerking and the reving up to high rpms. I decided to get off the highway where my car would not go over 40mphs and still reving. Took to a family mechanic who said to take it to the dealership for transmission problems.

I think the problem it’s on the transmission as the car is presenting hesitation and shuddering when accelerating, also it’s presenting rev fluctuations when driving at a constant speed, fortunately my safety and the safety of others is good until now. Yes the problem has being confirmed, no the vehicle has not being inspected by by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, there wasn’t any indication or warnings prior to the failure.

The contact owns a 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport. The contact stated while accelerating at various speeds, the vehicle failed to shift into the intended gear. The contact then stated that the vehicle hesitated and stalled. The check engine and the transmission warning lights were illuminated. The contact was able to restart the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact referenced NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V563000 (Power Train). The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that the VIN was not included in a recall. The failure mileage was approximately 78,000.

I bought the vehicle in November 2022 with 88000 Miles. I started to feel a noise that seemed to be the transmission about 4 days later, a tap when doing the 2nd gear and then it felt irregular the following gears. Stopping and going felt like he was forcing himself to make 2nd gear. Due to this problem, it takes a long time to cross an intersection which could cause an accident. I took it to a mechanical workshop where they put the scanner on it and it showed several errors, when the Mechanic tested the vehicle it was when the Engine indicator light came on,

The car will no longer drive. It would throw itself forward uncontroably right before the transmission failed. Car has less than 50k mileage on it and was working normally previously.
