ENGINE, SEAT BELTS
ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON STEADY WITH THE ENGINE BUCKING, SURGING, LOSING R.P.M.'S WHILE DRIVING AND STALLING AFTER COMING TO A FULL STOP. *TWO (2) O2 SENSORS WERE REPLACED, COMPUTER RE-PROGRAMED, ONE (1) OF THE TWO (2) SENSORS REPLACED AGAIN, WITH A FINAL REPAIR TO A SUSPECTED AIR LEAK WHICH FINALLY,AFTER 3-4 WEEKS, CLEARED THE LIGHT FROM COMING BACK ON. NOW, ONE MONTH LATER THE BUCKING AND SURGING IS BECOMING MORE AND MORE FREQUENT. I'M $1,000.00 INTO THIS PROBLEM AND IT STILL ISN'T RESOLVED!! COMPLAINT #2: THE RIGHT REAR SEAT BELT DOES NOT LOCK AND PULLS BACK OUT WHEN CONNECTED, COMBINED WITH THE FACT THAT THE FRONT BELTS ARE NOT LONG ENOUGH FOR EVEN THE SLIGHTEST OF LARGER PERSONS.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
MY 2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT DEVELOPED TRANSMISSION PROBLEM AND WARNING LIGHT CAME ON INCLUDING ENGINE SERVICE LIGHT. IT ONLY HAS 34173 MILES ON IT. I RESEARCHED THAT IT HAD A RECALL FOR A DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION HOSE ASSEMBLY BUT MITSUBISHI NO LONGER LISTS THE RECALL. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THAT MY VEHICLE GETS REPAIRED AS THE MANUFACTURING DATE OF THE VEHICLE FALLS IN THE TIME WHEN THIS ISSUE WAS NOT DETECTED DURING ASSEMBLY.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, AT NIGHT, IN THE RAIN, AND MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. I TRIED EVERY SETTING TO NO AVAIL. I TRIED USING THE CLEANING FLUID (WHICH USUALLY TRIGGERS THE WIPERS) AND THE FLUID PUMPED, BUT THE WIPERS DIDN'T WIPE. THE REAR WIPER IS STILL WORKING. I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, AND CHECKED THE FUSES, AND THEY ARE FINE. I TRIED TO MANUALLY MOVE THE WIPERS, AND THEY MOVED FREELY.

STRUCTURE:BODY, ENGINE, STEERING
WHEN I GO TO PULL OUT IT WILL NOT ACCELERATE ALMOST COMING TO A DEAD STOP AND IT WILL NOT CHANGE GEARS IT WILL ALMOST RED LINE.. YOU HAVE TO LET OFF THE GAS TO GET IT TO CHANGE GEARS AND WHILE DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE MY CAR JUST STOPPED ALSO WHEN YOU HIT YOUR BREAKS OR HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD IT PULLS TO ONE SIDE. ALSO WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED MY CAR THE IGNITION WAS BROKEN ON THE INSIDE WHICH CAUSED MY KEY TO GET STUCK. AND TO THIS DAY I AM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR PLUS THE BEVELS ON MY DASH BOARD WAS BROKEN

AIR BAGS
I WAS RETURNING HOME FROM WORK AND WAS AT A STOP SIGN WAITING TO TURN LEFT. CROSS TRAFFIC DOES NOT STOP. WHEN BELIEVING I WAS CLEAR I BEGAN MY LEFT TURN WHEN A CAR CROSSED IN FRONT OF MINE AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. I ATTEMPTED TO STOP BUT THE TWO CARS COLLIDED AND THE FRONT END OF MY CAR WAS COMPLETELY TORN OFF AND MY FRONT HOOD WAS BUCKLED BACK TOWARDS THE WINDSHIELD. WHEN EMERGENCY RESPONSE ARRIVED, THEY FELT VERY STRONGLY THAT THE AIR BAG SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED AND THEY MOVED ME TO THE BACK SEAT FOR FURTHER OBSERVATION BECAUSE THEY WERE AFRAID THE AIR BAG MAY STILL DEPLOY AND CAUSE FURTHER INJURY. I WAS SUBSEQUENTLY TRANSPORTED TO A LOCAL HOSPITAL FOR EVALUATION AND AFTER TESTING AND OBSERVATION WAS RELEASED WITH MODERATE BACK PAIN AND MILD TO MODERATE NECK PAIN.

THE 2017 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT'S CVT TRANSMISSION HESITANT WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP THEN IT SURGES WITH POWER AND THE RPM FLUCTUATES UP AND DOWN CONTINUOUSLY. WHEN GIVEN GAS THE VEHICLE SOMETIMES DOES NOT ACCELERATE. THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT ALWAYS LIKE THIS. I RECORDED MULTIPLE VIDEO SHOWING THE RPM FLUCTUATES CONSTANTLY EVEN IN CRUISE CONTROL. I TOOK IT TO LOCAL MITSUBISHI DEALERSHIP AND THEY KEPT THE VEHICLE FOR A DAY TO LOG THE DATA AS THEY DROVE IT AROUND ONLY TO BE TOLD "THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT"

ENGINE
I RECEIVED A LETTER EXPLAINING THERE IS A DEFICIENCY WHICH CAN SHUT DOWN MY MOTOR WHILE IN USE, AND TO VISIT A DEALER TO HAVE IT FIXED. SPOKE WITH REPS BY PHONE AND WAS TOLD IT MUST BE DONE AT A DEALER - NO EXCEPTIONS. I AM MEDICALLY RESTRICTED IN MY ACTIVITIES, I ADVISED THEM. NO EXCEPTIONS. CLOSEST DEALER TO MY HOME (EDWARDS, MS) IS IN ALEXANDRIA, LOUISIANA, I'M SORRY TO SAY I LEARNED, AND I REQUESTED THEY PROVIDE A CLOSER REPAIR PLACE, LIKE CLINTON OR VICKSBURG, MS, BUT THEY DECLINED. I ASKED THEM HOW LONG IT WOULD TAKE AND THEY DIDN'T KNOW FOR SURE. OVERNIGHT ACCOMMODATIONS? AT MY EXPENSE. WHAT IF IT BROKE DOWN ON THE WAY AND I WAS ABLE TO AVOID BEING OBLITERATED?? WHY, THEY WOULD DISPATCH A TOW. WHAT ABOUT ME? I WOULD BE ON MY OWN TO GET TO THE DEALER TO PICK UP THE CAR. MAYBE YOUR AGENCY HAS NO ANSWER FOR ME, BUT THIS SEEMS OUTRAGEOUS TREATMENT OF AN UNSUSPECTING CUSTOMER. WHY COULD THEY NOT ARRANGE FOR ANOTHER AUTO DEALERSHIP CLOSER TO ME TO DO THE WORK? AND I NOTICE THERE HAVE BEEN 5 RECALLS ON THE CAR. NOBODY INFORMED ME. SHODDY.
