My 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander has experienced recurring high engine-temperature readings, misfires, and two overheating-related engine shutdowns while driving, creating a risk of unexpected power loss in traffic. The vehicle has been evaluated repeatedly by authorized Mitsubishi dealerships without identifying the underlying cause.

2022 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER

Filed Oct 15, 2026


I am writing to escalate a severe safety violation by my dealership regarding my 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander. My infotainment screen is freezing and looping black, which leaves me without a functioning rearview safety camera. I brought the vehicle in for Safety Recall SR-25-001 (NHTSA Campaign 25V369), but the software update failed. The dealership is now refusing to order a replacement radio unit, claiming my car is not covered due to mileage. Safety recalls do not have mileage limits, and this…

255 45 R20 I had been having tire issues for several days, took car into Mavis tire center and they could not balance it, diagnosing it as separated tire/manufacture defect and advised not to drive as it was unsafe. I called Nexen Tire and advised to take it to one of their dealers which I did(Tire Choice). They wanted me to buy a new tire and give the tire to the distributor. I refused because the distributor has nothing to do with the factory warranty. I went back to Nexen and told to file…

2015 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER

Filed Sep 25, 2026


The front subframe crossmember on my vehicle is severely rusted out. There is currently a hole measuring about 2x1. I previously had two other holes on the bottom welded as a temporary fix, but the rust just kept eating through the metal and it's now beyond saving. Because of this structural damage, the car is unsafe to drive and cannot pass a NYS safety inspection. I know Mitsubishi recalled earlier Outlanders for this exact crossmember rust issue, but later model years like mine seem to…
