2020 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT Complaints

WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND A APPROACHING ANOTHER VEHICLE, PERSON BICYCLE OR OBJECT, THE FCM, FORWARD COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM IS SUPPOSE TO SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN AND EVENTUALLY STOP THE VEHICLE AND GIVE AND AUDIBLE ALERT. IT DOES NOTHING. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO CERRITOS MITSUBISHI IN CALIFORNIA AND ASKED THEM TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY CONNECTED THE VEHICLE TO THEIR COMPUTER FOR DIAGNOSIS AND A CODE CAME BACK UNDER SYSTEM NAME: FCM/LDW/AHB, AND UNDER DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE C1809 (SYSTEM TEMPORARY NOT AVAILABLE). I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT THEY NEEDED ME TO LEAVE THE VEHICLE AND THEY NEEDED TO CALL MITSUBISHI TO FIND OUT WHAT THAT CODE WAS FOR. THEY CALL ME BACK THAT EVENING AND SAID THE VEHICLE WAS READY TO BE PICKED UP AND SAID IT WAS WORKING FINE. I WENT OUT ON A TEST DRIVE WITH THE HEAD MECHANIC THE FCM WAS STILL DOING THE SAME THING AND HE SAID HE COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM WITH THE SYSTEM. I SUSPECT THAT THEY JUST CLEARED THE CODE AND GAVE THE VEHICLE BACK TO ME. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO PUENTA HILLS MITSUBISHI (WHERE I HAD PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM) AND LEFT IT OVER THE WEEKEND. I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT THEY NEEDED ME TO LEAVE THE VEHICLE AND THEY NEEDED TO CALL MITSUBISHI TO FIND OUT WHAT THAT CODE WAS FOR, AGAIN. THEY CALL ME BACK THAT EVENING AND SAID THE VEHICLE WAS READY TO BE PICKED UP AND SAID THEY DROVE IT AND COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. THE FCM (FORWARD COLLISION MITIGATION) STILL DOES NOT SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN AND EVENTUALLY STOP THE VEHICLE OR GIVE AND AUDIBLE ALERT. IT DOES NOTHING.
