2016 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER Complaints

Wife was driving home from work in the 2016 Outlander Sport and just before exiting onto the exit ramp vehicle began to rev up and then wind down and wouldn't accelerate anymore. Had it towed to the dealership. They checked it out and the transmission CVT is shot. Mind you this vehicle has only 118,000 and is only 5 yrs. old and with regular maintenance on it. The dealership just quoted me price to fix it would be $10,000. We still owe about $3500 left on payments. We don't have $10,000 to shell out for another transmission. Did some digging and seems like a lot of people are having the same problem with this transmission. This should be fixed for free and needs to be recalled. Someone is gonna be hurt seriously or killed because of this.

RECENTLY REPLACED THE ROTORS AND PADS ON ALL FOUR WHEELS OF MY OUTLANDER. ALL BUT THE REAR PASSENGER ARE WORKING FINE, WHILE THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE IS MAKING A GRINDING NOISE. WE'VE REPLACED THE BRAKE PADS 3 TIMES, REPLACED THE ROTOR ONCE, AND EVEN REPLACED THE WHOLE CALIPER; IT'S STILL MAKING A GRINDING SOUND. THERE'S A RECALL POSTED FOR SOME 2016 OUTLANDERS FOR THE PARKING BRAKE NOT ENGAGING/DISENGAGING PROPERLY AND WE MIGHT THINK THIS IS THE PROBLEM; HOWEVER, THIS RECALL IS NOT APPLIED TO OUR 2016 OUTLANDER. I THINK WE ARE HAVING THE EXACT PROBLEM THAT IS LISTED ON THIS RECALL.

RECALL NOTICE ON 1/1/2021 ON REAR BRAKE OPERATING SHAFT. INQUIRED SEVERAL TIMES OVER PAST FEW MONTHS. STILL THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN TAKEN CARE OF, ANSWER HAVEN'T GOTTEN THE PARTS. THIS IS IN MY RECALL. 'IF THE PARKING BREAK DOES NOT OPERATE PROPERLY, IT COULD LEAD TO A VEHICLE ROLLAWAY AND INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH.'

VEHICLE HAS BEGUN TO SHOW ISSUES WITH TRANSMISSION. BLINKING D LIGHT AS WELL AS TRANSMISSION LIGHT

KEY FOR DOORS DOES NOT UNLOCK WITH THE KEY. ORIGINAL OWNER NEVER USED KEY TO UNLOCK. THEY SAID THERE IS NO RECALLS. THIS IS A DANGER WHEN YOU CANNOT GET IN CAR WITH OUT REMOTE.

I WAS AT A STOP SIGN TURNING ONTO A HIGHWAY, I ACCELERATED AND MY CAR WAS MOVED INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND MY CAR TURNED OFF AND THEN TURNED BACK ON JUST A SECOND OR SO LATER AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE AGAIN. I AM NOT CERTAIN WHAT HAPPENED AS THERE WERE NO CODES THROWN AND THE CAR CONTINUED TO OPERATE AFTER TURNING ITSELF BACK ON. I AM WONDERING IF THERE IS SOMETHING IN THE COMPUTER PROGRAMMING THAT IS FAULTY. WHEN I GOT HOME, I CHECKED ALL THE CONNECTIONS AND DID NOT SEE ANY OBVIOUS FAULTS. I ALSO CHECKED ALL FLUID LEVELS AND CAPS JUST TO BE CERTAIN IT WASN'T SOMETHING RELATED TO ANY OF THAT SOMEHOW. IT IS SCARY THOUGH BECAUSE THERE WERE VEHICLES COMING TOWARD ME FROM BOTH DIRECTIONS.
