2014 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport owner complaints

I was on the freeway and all of the sudden the transmission stopped working and I was unable to get to the side of the road safely do to loss of power and traffic conditions. There was transmission warning light that came on and right after that when I pressed on the acceleration the engine would rev, but there was no reaction to the gears. This resulted in me being stuck in an active lane of traffic and nearly being hit several times. I called the police and informed them because I didn’t want to cause an accident but do to another accident I was stranded for 50 minutes in the active lane of traffic. Apparently this is a known issue with this transmission but the manufacturer is not responding and issued a recall like it needs to. Something like this could get someone seriously injured or

The contact owns a 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport. The contact stated while driving 20 MPH, the check engine and the ASC warning light were illuminated. Additionally, the vehicle lost motive power. The contact depressed the accelerator pedal, but the vehicle failed to exceed 10 MPH. The contact stated that the vehicle was driven to a nearby independent mechanic. The independent mechanic diagnosed the vehicle and determined that the PCM needed to be updated. The contact stated that the failure was related to TSB Number: 13−13−008. The dealer and the manufacturer were notified of the failure and informed the contact that the vehicle would be repaired at her own expense. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 110,400.

When I push on gas, the car never shifts gears! I can start out slowly with a little gas peddle pressure, but when trying to get up to speed and merge with traffic, it will never shift into a higher gear! It stays at about 20mph and engine revs to red zone unless I lift off gas. I don't even get gas peddle half way down. Transmission roars, car doesn't go, and I can't go forward but at a slow crawl unless I pull over, let off gas completely so car can settle, then try again. It won't shift in AWD or 4wd and I old lady, I don't troomp n rocket. I just want to get up to 55mph within 1 mile without sending my engine into dragonflies and half a tank of gas gone! I asked dealer and he blew it off as a slow startingvehicle, but it's getting worse and tyranny not shifting right. Have to find a mi

Upon starting the vehicle and taking off with the shifter engaged in automatic, the car quickly engages the first gear but as I depress the accelerator pedal to accelerate, it feels and sounds like the engine is about to stall out and the vehicle slows back down as if hesitating and malfunctioning, then it very slowly over about a 20-30 second lull will begin to pick up speed at an incredibly slow and dangerous speed. I have tried making right turns and left yield turns only to find that I cannot move fast enough out of another vehicles path in a safe time and that it is too difficult to try and presume how long it will take to cross a street as the acceleration of the vehicle is unpredictable every time. I have to constantly drive with the shifter in manual to override this problem. This

While driving and automatic the cat jumps rpms and doesn't shift right when in manual it drives perfectly fine.

Jerking forward when car mits outlander sport starts. Have tried using hand brake on parking but once vehicle is started it shoots forward.

Tl* the contact owns a 2014 Mitsubishi outlander sport. The contact stated that a message displayed, indicating that the transmission was getting hot and to slow down. The contact was driving in stop and go traffic in hot weather at the time of the message. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the transmission pump failed. The mechanic checked all over the nation and could not find a used transmission because of the recall issues. Fuccillo Mitsubishi (18822 us-11, watertown, ny 13601, (800) 244-1745) stated that the warranty was expired and the repair would cost more than $8,000. The manufacturer was contacted and rudely stated that they were not going to issue a recall just for the contact's vehicle and it was out of warranty. The failure mileage was 106,500

The contact owns a 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to start. The contact replaced the battery; however, while driving, the vehicle jerked and hesitated to respond upon depressing the accelerator pedal. The traction control warning light and an unknown warning light were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the map sensor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred while driving. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer but was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that they could not assist because the vehicle was not covered under Mitsubishi Campaign Number: SR−16−006. The failure mileage was unknown. The VIN wa

Turn signals do not shut off after turn. Must turn off manualy. And sometimes head lights come on when turn signals are on.. Same problem when changing lanes on a highway..

I do not have an auto light function on the vehicle but the lights will randomly come on, even though the switch is turned to off. When this happens my turn signals do not work at all. I took the vehicle to the dealership since it is under warranty, but because the lights and turn signals were working at that moment they did not do anything because they could not diagnose a problem (despite my specifics about what was occurring and the dangers driving with no turn signals poses). Initially this only happened when I started the car, but now it will happen randomly when I am driving. The lights come on then the turn signals stop working.

I was parking my car and my foot was firmly on the brake. Just as I was going to shift my car into park, the engine revved and the car surged forward I was unable to stop the car, in spite of braking. The car jumped the curb in the parking lot and ended up stopping on top of a landscaping boulder. This stopped the car from moving forward as the front of the car was on top of the rock, but the engine was still revving as I put the car in park and turned off the ignition. Transmission pan and engine cradle damaged by collision. Had the landscaping boulder not been there, the car would have continued into the building in front of me.

The contact pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road and waited for the rain to subside. Victory Mitsubishi (4070 boston road, bronx, new york 10475, (718) 618-6292) was made aware of the failure. Prior to the failure, the vehicle was repaired per NHTSA campaign number: 16v792000 (visibility) and the windshield wiper motor was replaced. In addition, the window regulator was replaced. The contact stated that the failure recurred five days after the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 59,800.

Since I've owned the vehicle there have been two prior recalls concerning the wiper motors. The last repair was not right and I complained to any that would listen yet nothing was done. Now my wiper blade motor is failing in the same way as the prior recall spoke of. My blades function erratically and do not come back to rest in the park position. The original recall work and parts where subpar at best.

While driving in a slow moving construction zone, applied the brakes and the vehicle failed to stop, continuing to move forward. Noticed on this particular vehicle that at times anti lock brakes come on and makes the vehicle more difficult to control. Specifically under wet road condition on asphalt, but does happen occasionally elsewhere.

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.

Asc warning light came on and shortly after the engine overheating warning. This happened on the expressway (cold temperature: 15-20 degrees in ky)

Seat belt covers n covers that cover bolts n nuts keep coming off... Ones at feet that cover mechanics won't stay on. Makes belts not fit properly and not catch when needed, nor do they stay untangled nor in right position on bodies.

I picked up my vehicle from having a recall service done. but when i was unloading the rental car my car began to roll due to ebrake recall that has not been properly addressed. have warning lights indicating airbag service and that passenger airbag is off when it is occupied. Airbags should never fail, nor should brakes. no matter miles or salt on road. if salt corodes a certain part than it must be an aloy that will not corrode. also brake lines should not ever rust they too should be coated with epoxy or alloy metals that are impervious to salt...

Electrical power steering is going out. Sterling/moaning when I enter or leave a parking space. A new thing has been added - the brakes 'catch' when I make a hard brake and I wonder if the two are associated with each other.

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.
