First incident occurred on 12/6/10 when the car had 11,000 miles on it. Sometimes when pressing the gas pedal, the engine revs up but the car doesn't move. This problem has happened about 25 times since I purchased the vehicle in november 2009. The vehicle issue has been reported to Mitsubishi corporate and the vehicle has been taken in to dealership service centers several times. The service centers admit to knowing what the problem is but won't fix it unless the car acts up when they test drive it. Mitsubishi finally agreed to take my car in and provide me with a rental on 1/11/13 do to a recent accident due to the car defect but no promise to fix the problem was made. The problem with this car is widely reported online... Http://www.ehow.com/facts_7887790_cvt-problems-Mitsubishi-lanc

The s-awc (super all-wheel control) light came on and was taken to the dealership that same day. Mitsubishi flashed the ECU and the problem was fixed. I recently noticed the light blinking while the vehicle is being operated. I contacted my local dealership and they informed the part is not covered by drive train warranty and my vehicle is not covered because it older than 3 years. The vehicle was purchased new in january 2010; this makes it 3 years 10 months old at time of incident with less than 36k on the odometer. *tr

4wd service required light appeared. Lights stays on for a few days. Went to Mitsubishi dealer service and awc pump has failed. Im at 50,000 miles and car is 4 years old, so im with in the 5yr/60k mile drivetrain warranty, and warranty will not cover it. It is obviously a drivetrain problem. Let alone it has happend frequently to these cars. *tr

Transfer case in this car omits a loud whining noise when driving forward. Noise increases in volume the faster the car is going. This whine is due to the wearing of the gears because of a faulty design. When the transfer case whine happens, it has a high probability of locking up which will cause all wheels to stop spinning potentially causing a serious accident and possibly death. *tr

I contacted Mitsubishi of libertyville on 10/28/14. I was looking to set up an appointment to take care of the recall. They took my information, and told me the part(s) had to be ordered and that they would contact me when the part(s) had arrived. I have still yet to hear from them. *tr

Requested dealer to repair under warranty a problem which can cause vehicle to become inoperable at temperatures of 20 below zero as documented in Mitsubishi tsb-10-13-002. Was advised by dealer and later by Mitsubishi customer relations that this would not be covered by warranty since the problem has not occurred on this specific vehicle. I recommend that this tsb be considered for a possible recall in those parts of the country where the temperature regularly goes to 20 below zero. Having a disabled vehicle at that temperature is a safety issue. *tr

My lancer is total white and the paint is coming completely off by itself where you could see the metal, it is like if the paint never adhered to the metal of the car. This is happening in front and back of the roof, where the roof meets the back panel, and on the ledge of the doors where the crystal goes in and at the beginning of the front hut of the car. I have seen a few cars with the same color and with the same problem in the same places, and this happen only in white cars.

Low tire pressure comes on constantly, first they found a wire on the right back tier, I had a new tier put on, then sensor came back on they found that the sensor was leaking from the new tire had that fix, went back 4 days later they found the sensor leaking again. Had that repair. I have pictures on my cell phone when sensor light turns on. Dates 10-15-10, 10-18-10, 10-23-10,10-27-10, 10-28-10, 10-29-10, 11-05-10. I bought the car in october 2009 problem started in april 2010. The manager at the shop said the sensor will probably need air again, he did not give me much hope! *tr
