2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT Complaints

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 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.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE JERKED AND WOULD NOT SHIFT GEARS. ALSO, THE TRANSMISSION INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO LUTHER BROOKDALE MITSUBISHI (7235 BROOKLYN BLVD, SUITE B, BROOKLYN CENTER, MN 55429, (844) 242-5989) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

I WAS TOLD MY ENTIRE TRANSMISSION WAS UNDER RECALL BUT MITTSUBISHI OF ORANGE PARK IN JACKSONVILLE FLORIDA AND THAT IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I AM NOW BEING TOLD THAT THEY WILL NOT FIX BECAUSE I AM 2ND OWNER AND BECAUSE OF MILAGE. I HAVE PUT ABOUT 80000 MILES ON K. ORIGINAL OWNER PUT 43000 MILES ON CAR. I WAS UNAWARE THAT THERE WERE ANY RECALLS ON VEHICLE WHEN I PURCHASED IT AND WOULD NOT HAVE IF HAD KNOWN. AS WELL AS THAT I RECEIVED NO NOTIFICATION FROM MITTSUBISHI IN MY 3 YEARS OF OWNING VEHICLE TO BRING VEHICLE TO REPAIR RECALLS . VEHICLE WILL SUDDUNLEY STOP IN TRAFFIC WILL NOT ACCELARATE OR JUST TURNS OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TURNING .

2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT WAS PART OF NHTSA RECALL NO. : 18V-070 IN EARLY 2018. DUE TO UNAVAILABLE PARTS, THE RECALL ON REAR BRAKE ISSUE AND CALIPERS WAS PERFORMED IN AUGUST 2018. NOW 8 MONTHS LATER, WHEN GOING TO GET A NAIL REMOVED FROM A TIRE AT TIRE DEALER, THEIR TECH NOTICED A NEW RUBBING SOUND IN REAR PASSANGER SIDE OF VEHICLE. AFTER FURTHER INSPECTION, THE CALIPER THAT WAS REPLACED IN AUGUST IS NOW SEIZED AGAIN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO HESITATE AND FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 46,678.

I OWN A 2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT WITH 110,000 MILES ON IT. OTHER THAN THE RECALLS I HAVE HAD NO ISSUES. FREQUENT OIL CHANGES, BRAKES, BASIC MAINTENANCE NOTHING ELSE. MINOR ACCELERATION ISSUES AS PER THE RECALL. I WAS DRIVING HOME ON THE PARKWAY AT THE SPEED LIMIT OF 65MPH AND HEARD A SUDDEN KNOCK, THE CAR SHUDDERED AND DIED. THANKFULLY I REACTED QUICKLY AND PULLED OVER THE MINUTE I KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG. I GOT OUT AND THERE WAS OIL ALL OVER THE ROAD WAY. BEING A NOVICE MECHANIC I PRETTY MUCH KNEW THE ENGINE WAS DEAD. TOWED TO HEALEY BRS MITSUBISHI BEACON NY AND 4 DAYS LATER THEY CONFIRMED THAT THERE WAS A HOLE IN THE ENGINE AND IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THEY HAD NO EXPLANATION FOR THE SUDDEN FAILURE BUT DID CONFIRM THAT IT WAS SUDDEN AND NOT DUE TO ANY LACK OF MAINTENANCE ON MY PART. THE CAR IS 3 YEARS OLD WITH SUDDEN ENGINE FAILURE, ON A DARK HIGHWAY ON CHRISTMAS EVE. I AM THANKFUL THAT I WAS SAFE BUT STILL WANT AN EXPLANATION. A FRIEND OF MINE WHO USED TO WORK FOR MITSUBISHI INFORMED ME THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE THIRD PISTON ON THESE ENGINES BUT THE MECHANIC IN BEACON WOULD NOT CONFIRM EITHER WAY.
