2014 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport Complaints

VEHICLE WAS AT DEALER SHIP FOR RECALLS. REAR CALIPERS STILL LOCK UP SLIGHTLY FROM EMERGENCY BRAKE ACTUATOR ISSUE. THE DEALER REPLACED THE ACTUATOR LEVER BUT NEVER REMOVED THE CALIPER TO DISASSEMBLE AND CLEAN OUT CORROSION BEHIND PISTON. STUART SAID THE SPRINGS WERE REPLACED. I LOOKED AND CAN SEE THE ORIGONAL RUSTY SPRINGS. THE BRAKES STILL SLIGHTLY LOCK UP ON THE REARS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 35 MPH, SHE LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WITHOUT WARNING AND HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY UPON IMPACT. NO INJURIES WERE REPORTED AND A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT BODY SHOP WHERE SHE WAS INFORMED THAT HER LOWER CONTROL WAS THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE; SHE WAS GIVEN AN ESTIMATE FOR THE REPAIR. MONTHS AFTER THE ACCIDENT, THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V279000 (STRUCTURE, SUSPENSION) WHICH SHE LINKED TO HER FAILURE. THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAD YET TO BE REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 52,000.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND WITH NO WARNING THE VEHICLE LOST PRESSURE WHEN PRESSING ON THE GAS PEDDLE TO DRIVE TO MAINTAIN SPEED LIMIT WHEN DRIVING THE CAR. THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS CHECKED AND THERE WAS THE RECOMMENDED LEVEL OF TRANSMISSION FLUID. MECHANIC STATED ERROR CODE P0868. PER MECHANIC/TRANSMISSION SPECIALIST THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH MITSUBISHI TRANSMISSIONS AND THEY ARE ONLY ABLE TO GET THE TRANSMISSION FROM A DEALER. PLEASE NOTE THAT HIS HAS OCCURRED TO OTHER 2014 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDERS WITH 50,000 OR LESS THAT WERE PURCHASED AT THE LANCASTER MITSUBISHI IN LANCASTER, PA.

THE FRONT DOOR (PASSENGER SIDE) HAS RUSTED ALL ALONG THE BOTTON OF THE DOOR. IN ADDITION THERE IS A NOISE COMING FROM THE DOOR WHEN YOU OPEN AND CLOSE IT. SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING IS LOOSE INSIDE THE DOOR BETWEEN THE OUTER DOOR AND THE INNER DOOR. THERE IS NO RUST ON THE REST OF THE CAR.

SPEED DROPPED AND WON'T GO OUT OF SECOND GEAR, MECHANIC SAYS ALL OF THESE TRANSMISSIONS ARE BAD AND DANGEROUS, HAPPENED ON CITY STREET
