SEAT BELTS
I have a safety recall on my vehicle. Mitsubishi says I will have to dry from oklahoma to Arkansas because they no longer have places in Oklahoma that will fix a recall. But there are many dealerships that are selling Mitsubishis. Those dealerships also tell me I would have to take it to Arkansas. This is a huge problem, I bought this car brand new and unable to get recalls fixed on it unless I drive to another state. This is awful. I’m a nurse and work a lot I don’t have time to dry to Arkansas and have my car worked on. Not only that time, gas and mileage. That’s not fair at all to me. They should have to have a center of some sort in Oklahoma to fix these recalls if they are going to be selling new Mitsubishis here in Oklahoma.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Upon idling this vehicle reeks of fresh fuel. It has been reported to the dealer and they have re-produced the problem. However, they do not know what is causing it. I am worried about the smell of gasoline in my car. I am worried about the car combusting and I am worried about respiratory problems or health issues that may result from the constant exposure of fuel or gasoline fumes . The dealer is reporting to me that corporate office has been notified and is working on a solution however, they do not tell me what the solution is or if they can even identify the problem. I am only told that I am on a waiting list for a repair, and that many people are complaining of this problem. Where I live in Yuma Arizona, the summers get to 114°, and while this may exacerbate the issue it is not the cause and the smell of raw gas can be noted Even in the winter months. I first had the vehicle into the dealership on July 2022 for this problem. This is an ongoing, unresolved problem, and I am worried about my safety as well as the safety of others . When I first noticed the problem and brought the vehicle in, I received paperwork documenting the problem and the service report. The service department will no longer provide me paperwork proving I was there for a repair. They understand that this could be applicable to the lemon law.

Dealer wants to replace rear lower control arms due to corrosion and the car control arms were never addressed when I took it into the dealer for recall 16V458. The dealer was supposed to add a anti corrosion spray to the control arms in the front and back. The corrosion is very bad with these parts on my car and I am very concerned about safety.

Was driving the car and it totally lost power to everything. Had to pull over immediately with whatever power I had left to have the car roll to a stop. Multiple lights came on the dash.

ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS, I HAVE HAD THE FRONT DRIVER'S DOOR WINDOW GLASS AND THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR WINDOW GLASS CRACK ON INTERSTATE 40. THIS HAS BEEN WHILE EXITING THE BRIDGE EASTBOUND AT THE EXIT FOR INTERSTATE 74 TO HIGH POINT. THERE IS AN ODD BUMP EXITING THE BRIDGE IN THE LEFTHAND LANE. IN BOTH INSTANCES, THE GLASS HAS HAD TO BE REPLACED. SAFELITE AUTO GLASS HAS STATED THAT THE GLASS APPEARS TO BE INFERIOR IN NATURE AND SHOULD NOT CRACK. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 5,000 MILES ON IT SO DOESN'T HAVE ANY UNNECESSARY WEAR AND TEAR.

STRUCTURE:BODY, VISIBILITY/WIPER
Purchase 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander fall of 2021. Took first trip of over 200 miles on Highway. Noticed that speeds of 60 MPH or over, the hood vibrates(badly). Took to local dealership was told Mitsubishi aware of issue, and in the works to correct, and most likely recall to replace hoods. Just took in this week June 2023 to local dealership. Asked again about Hood issue. This time was told Mitsubishi not aware and no fix available or in the works. My concern is I travel a lot on major highways at over 60 MPH. What happens if hood flys up when driving 60 MPH. The hood would fly back break windshield, cause Death or serious accident. And that worries my wife and me. Dealership hasn't done anytime to ease my concerns
