  EARLY FAILURE OF THE TRANSMISSION ON OUTLANDERS IS KNOWN PROBLEM AND PUTS DRIVERS AT RISK FOR SERIOUS INJURY WHEN THE CAR GOES INTO A SAFE MODE LEAVING THE CAR STRANDED IN THE ROAD. MY CAR GAVE ME NO WARNING PRIOR TO THE CAR SHUTTING DOWN. I WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION ON A SUNDAY MORNING. IT TOOK > 1 HOUR TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED OUT OF HARMS WAY.

  I HAD AN ACCIDENT WHILE DRIVING DOWN A HILL IN SNOWY WEATHER. I HAVE DRIVEN FOR 29 YEARS SO I AM AN EXPERIENCED DRIVER, HAVING DRIVEN THIS ROAD FOR ELEVEN YEARS...WITHOUT AN ACCIDENT. MY NEIGHBOR WAS THE FIRST ONE TO COME TO ME AFTER THE ACCIDENT AND HE SAID IT LOOKED AS THOUGH MY BACK WHEELS WERE LOCKED UP. I KNOW NOT TO HOLD THE BRAKES...AND I IMAGINE THAT ALL FOUR BRAKES WOULD HAVE SLID HAD IT BEEN BECAUSE THE BRAKES WERE BEING HELD. I WAS HEADED FOR THE DITCH..HOPING TO BE ABLE TO SLOW THE CAR DOWN WITHOUT CRASHING AND FOR SOME REASON THE VEHICLE JUST SHOT IN THE OTHER DIRECTION AND STRUCK THREE TREES HEAD ON. MY AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THE SEAT BELT CAUGHT EITHER...I HIT THE STEERING WHEEL WITH MY CHEST AND HURT MY NECK AND MY TEETH CLACKED TOGETHER HURTING THEM. I WAS WEARING THE SEATBELT. I AM QUESTIONING WHY THE SEAT BELTS AND AIR BAGS DIDN'T WORK AND WONDER IF THERE IS A MALFUNCTION IN THE BRAKING SYSTEM AND OR THE ACCELERATION. *TR

  I TOOK MY 2010 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER IN FOR A NOISE IN THE REAR AND THEY FOUND THE THIRD ROW SEAT ANCHOR BROKEN. MITSUBISHI CLAIMS THAT THE ANCHOR IS BROKEN AND THAT IT IS NON WARRANTY.

I GUESS MITSUBISHI DON'T CARE ABOUT KEEPING THEIR SEATS ANCHORED TO THE CAR FOR THE SAFETY OF ITS RIDERS. *TR

I ALREADY REPLACED THE REAR TIRE ABS SENSOR (ALMOST $1000) BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WOULD HESITATE WHEN TAKING MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE. )PROBABLY RELATED TO THE PROBLEM WITH THE PUMP.)

THE STICK CONTROL FOR SIGNALING WILL NOT LOCK THE HIGH BEAMS ON SO IF YOU NEED THE EXTRA LIGHT YOU WOULD HAVE TO HOLD THE STICK BACK MANUALLY. 3.)

ONE YEAR AFTER PURCHASE, I HAD TO TAKE IT IN, BECAUSE ALL THE LIGHTS AND GAUGES WOULD START FLASHING AND THE RADIO WOULD GO OFF. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED RUNNING, BUT IT WAS SCARY. ADDITIONALLY, THE DOOR SOMETIMES WOULD NOT OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE WITH THE FOB. THE DEALER CORRECTED THIS PROBLEM. SINCE THEN, STARTING IN JUNE OF 2013, OR EARLIER, WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE LIGHTS FREQUENTLY DIM AND GET BRIGHTER, ESPECIALLY IF THE A/C IS ON. I ALSO HAD TO REPLACE MY BATTERY IN NOVEMBER, 2013; IT WAS LESS THAN 3 YRS OLD. THEY TOLD ME THEN (BACK IN NOVEMBER) THEY WERE ORDERING A NEW ALTERNATOR FOR ME (COVERED UNDER WARRANTY). IT IS NOW THE END OF MARCH AND WHEN I CALLED MY LOCAL MITSUBISHI DEALER AGAIN, AND THEY TOLD ME THERE IS A 1,000 UNIT BACK ORDER ON THE ALTERNATORS ON THESE VEHICLES, AND THE NEW, I AM GUESSING REDESIGNED UNIT, WOULD NOT BE OUT UNTIL THE BEGINNING OF MAY.
