2022 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER- Plainfield, IL
Good flutter at speeds above 45 mph or high winds. NTSB issued but not notified, recall should be issued as this is a safety concern, called dealer who stated a tsb was issued but I was not notified. Due to being out of manufacture warranty I will have to pay cost of hood replacement. Mitsubishi is not responding to my outreach. I first notified dealer of concern after purchase and was not informed of tsb, I was told it was safe and a design flaw.

2023 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER- Ogden, UT
The EV portion of the PHEV is often not providing power to the motors, even though, there are still plenty of battery power available. The vehicle sometimes gave "Power Reduced" warning that usually went away after 30 minutes, and the vehicle cannot go into EV mode. When in EV mode and just cruising on the highway, it barely has power to keep up with traffic and sometimes it is losing speed just on a slight incline on the road causing me to move over or take it out of EV mode just to get power from the gas engine. In one occasion, I driving in EV mode and merging onto the highway. I stepped on the gas and the car was barely, if at all, accelerating. Fortunately, there wasn't vehicle coming from the highway.

2022 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER- Ray Brook, NY
Battery issues, car uses excessive power causing battery to fail. This has caused car to stop working completely while driving. I’ve seen several forums with the same complaints. This stalling out and loss of all electronics while driving is extremely dangerous. This has occurred multiple times since I’ve owned this vehicle.

2023 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER- Arlington, TX
The electrical system in my 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander has repeatedly malfunctioned since September 2023. The primary failure involves the dashboard completely shutting down while the vehicle is in motion, resulting in the loss of critical driving information such as speed and system warnings. The issue is intermittent but ongoing and may be available for inspection upon request. This failure creates a serious safety risk because I am unable to see essential driving information while operating the vehicle, placing both myself and my family at risk. The vehicle has been taken to authorized Mitsubishi dealerships multiple times for these issues. Repairs have been performed during these visits; however, none have permanently resolved the problem. The issue temporarily stops after repairs but eventually returns and continues to recur. The problem has been reproduced multiple times. The vehicle has been inspected by authorized Mitsubishi service departments on multiple occasions, but the underlying issue has not been properly diagnosed or permanently repaired. Prior to failure, there have been repeated battery-related issues and sensor malfunctions. The vehicle has required at least three battery replacements since purchase. These symptoms often occur before the dashboard shuts down. In addition to the electrical issue, the vehicle has also experienced fuel pump concerns, which have persisted despite repair attempts. This ongoing and recurring defect makes the vehicle unsafe to operate and remains unresolved.

2020 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER- Roseville, CA
I made an appt for a recall on my touchscreen at Hayward mitsubishi on may 27th 2025. I was left in the waiting room for two hours even with an appt. I was told mona would come get me but never did. I was very upset. Eventually my information was taken and said the part would come in, in approximately 9 months. The time has passed and they dis not return my calls and blocked my number on the text messages. They also did not return any calls to the BBB and I also submitted a complaint to the BAR. They are refusing to help me and other dealerships are also ignoring me. Thank you for your attention to this message.
