CRUSE CONTROL SHUTS OFF SAYING ACC NOT AVAILABLE DURING ROAD TRIPS. THIS IS ON HIGHWAYS. IT HAPPENED 5 TIMES DURING ROAD TRIP FROM MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN TO WAUSAU WISCONSIN WHILE IN MOTION.. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I USE THE CRUSE CONTROL. IT HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO WAUSAU AND ON THE WAY HOME ROUND TRIP APX 600 MILES THIS TRIP

VEHICLE HAS HAD EV SYSTEM SERVICE REQUIRED, BSW SERVICE REQUIRED, AND ASC SERVICE REQUIRED WARNING LIGHTS COME ON EVERY FEW DAYS SINCE SEPTEMBER. WHEN THESE COME ON MULTIPLE SAFETY FEATURES OF THE VEHICLE ARE IMMEDIATELY DISABLED. THE DEALER HAS BEEN UNABLE TO FIX THE ISSUE AFTER FIVE VISITS INCLUDING ONE WHERE THEY HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 65 DAYS. PER THE MANU: EV SYSTEM SERVICE REQUIRED: "ONE OR MORE FAILURE IS OCCURRING IN THE PLUG-IN HYBRID EV SYSTEM. HAVE YOUR VEHICLE INSPECTED BY A CERTIFIED MITSUBISHI EV DEALER" ASC SYSTEM SERVICE REQUIRED "THERE IS A FAULT IN THE ACTIVE STABILITY CONTROL. CONTACT A CERTIFIED MITSUBISHI EV DEALER TO HAVE THE SYSTEM CHECKED" BSW SERVICE REQUIRED "THE BLIND SPOT WARNING (BSW) DOES NOT OPERATE NORMALLY BECAUSE THERE THERE ARE SOME MALFUNCTIONS IN THE SENSOR OR THE SYSTEM. IMMEDIATELY HAVE YOUR VEHICLE INSPECTED AT A CERTIFIED MITSUBISHI EV DEALER" WHEN THE WARNING DISPLAY APPEARS THE BSW WILL BE DEACTIVATED.

I'M HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY 4WD LIGHT IS STUCK BLINKING SINCE THE PAST WINTER WEATHER ALSO IT WILL NOT RESET ITSELF FROM SHOWING THE WHEEL IMAGE ON MY ODOMETER SCREEN. PLEASE HELP ME UNDERSTAND WHAT'S GOING ON.

THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 63 MPH ON A RURAL BLACKTOP, WHEN A WHITE TAIL DEER RAN INTO THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE WHERE THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT AND REAR DOOR MEET. THE COLLISION CAUSED BOTH DOOR WINDOWS TO SHATTER, AND THE DOORS ARE DENTED SO BAD THEY CANNOT BE OPENED. THE SIDE AIRBAGS ON THE VEHICLE DID NOT DEPLOY EVEN AFTER TAKING A DIRECT HIT FROM THE DEER.

WHILE DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT AND SLOWED DOWN BECAUSE OF A BUMP THE CAR IMMEDIATELY DIED AS SOON AS I PASSED THE BUMP WITH NO ENGINE LIGHT ERRORS. THE BATTERY WAS CAR JUMP AND NOTHING HAPPENED. THE BATTERY WAS TESTED WITH VOLTAGE METER AND SAME ISSUE. WHEN YOU TURN ON THE CAR NOTHING HAPPENS, NO SOUND, NO CRANKS, NO ENGINE LIGHT. I HAD THE CAR TOWED AT HOME. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND VERY CONCERNING. THE CAR IS 2018 OUTLANDER ES AND HAVE 34K MILES.

THE SUNROOF GLASS EXPLODED OUT OF OUR CAR WHILE WE WERE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY IN IDAHO. THE SUNROOF WAS CLOSED BECAUSE IT HAD BEEN RAINING AND IT WAS COLD. MITSUBISHI HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH SUNROOF GLASS DETACHING IN OUTLANDERS FROM 2007-2010. WHEN WE CONTACTED MITSUBISHI THEY INFORMED US THAT THE GLASS FLYING OUT OF OUR SUNROOF WAS NOT A SAFETY PROBLEM OR A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT EVEN THOUGH IT WAS RULED AS SUCH IN PREVIOUS YEARS.

WITHIN 10,000 MILES OF OWNING MY NEW CAR I NOTICED IT WOULD RANDOMLY STALL SOMETIMES AT THE STOP LIGHT OF AN INTERSECTION. IT DOESN'T TAKE LONG TO START BACK UP. OTHER TIMES MY CAR STRUGGLES TO START ALL TOGETHER. I'LL TURN THE KEY 2-3 TIMES BEFORE IT STARTS. SEVERAL MONTHS WENT BY WHERE THE ISSUE WAS NO LONGER PRESENT BUT OVER THE PAST MONTH IT STARTED AGAIN. LIKELY RELATED TO THE WHETHER NOW THAT WINTER IS NEAR. FINALLY MY EBRAKE HAS NEVER WORKED SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR IN EARLY 2019 WITH 21K MILES.

I HAVE REPLACED THE LOWBEAM HEADLIGHTS 7 TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR. I DONT REALIZE THEY ARE OUT UNTIL SOMEONE OR THE POLICE TELL ME. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN ATTEMPTING TO SHIFT THE GEAR FROM DRIVE INTO REVERSE WITH THE FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY ACCELERATED AND CRASHED INTO A HOUSE WALL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHTS BEFORE OR AFTER THE FAILURE OCCURRED. HOWEVER, THE CONTACT ADVISED THAT THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENTAL PANEL BEFORE THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN UNKNOWN REPAIR FACILITY. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE CONTACTS RIGHT HAND WAS INJURED THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,000.

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE, THE PROPULSION REDUCED WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR WENT FROM 70 MPH TO 10 MPH. I WAS DRIVING UP A GRADE IN THE LATE EVENING. I HAD A FULL TANK OF GAS BUT NO MILES LEFT ON THE ELECTRIC CHARGE INDICATOR. AFTER I PULLED OVER AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES THE LIGHT WENT OFF AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY. THE DEALERSHIP WAS NOT ABLE TO FIND THE PROBLEM AND INSISTED I COME GET THE CAR. IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE A CAR IF IT REDUCES ITS SPEED/ POWER FOR NO REASON.
