21.8K Vehicles Affected
Recall Date: Nov 30, 2020
Safety Issue:

Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (MMNA) is recalling certain 2016 Outlander and Outlander Sport vehicles. The rust prevention coating on the rear brake operating shafts could have been peeled off during the assembly process. As a result, water entering the rear brake caliper boot may cause the parking brake operating shafts to corrode and possibly bind.

Potential Risk:
If the parking brake operating shafts bind, the parking brakes may not engage or disengage fully. If the parking brakes do not engage properly, the vehicle could rollaway, increasing the risk of a crash.
FREE Recall Solution:
MMNA will notify owners, and dealers will replace the rear brake caliper assemblies, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed May 4, 2021. Owners may contact MMNA customer service at 1-888-648-7820. MMNA's number for this recall is SR-20-005.

Defect Description:

POWER TRAIN

Potential Consequences:

Vehicle exhibits a shudder/surge condition (engine flare, lack of acceleration, and/or car shake) possibly caused by poor reaction of the hydraulic pressure circuit. The CVT belt slips repeatedly when accelerating, causing a warning light to turn on with DTC P084A. The vehicle exhibits exactly the conditions described in TSB-20-23-001 and is explicitly included in the affected vehicles section the bulletin (2015-2020 Outlander Sport with 2.0L Engine with CVT transmission). The conditions were confirmed using Diagnostic Procedure 2 on TSB-20-23-001 by certified mechanic at Meineke Car Care Center (Lexington, SC). However, VIN was not included in the recall as confirmed by MMNA service representatives. The scope of TSB-20-23-001 does not sufficiently cover all vehicles affected by the recall condition, as Mitsubishi excluded some vehicles for undisclosed reasons. Because Mitsubishi had previously failed to trace and identify all affected vehicles in its initial recall for this unsafe condition in TSB-17-23-002, it is possible or likely that Mitsubishi failed to trace or identify all affected vehicles in TSB-20-23-001. The scope should be expanded to all vehicles with CVT transmissions in the model years listed in the bulletin, without exception.

POWER TRAIN

Potential Consequences:

Wife was driving home from work in the 2016 Outlander Sport and just before exiting onto the exit ramp vehicle began to rev up and then wind down and wouldn't accelerate anymore. Had it towed to the dealership. They checked it out and the transmission CVT is shot. Mind you this vehicle has only 118,000 and is only 5 yrs. old and with regular maintenance on it. The dealership just quoted me price to fix it would be $10,000. We still owe about $3500 left on payments. We don't have $10,000 to shell out for another transmission. Did some digging and seems like a lot of people are having the same problem with this transmission. This should be fixed for free and needs to be recalled. Someone is gonna be hurt seriously or killed because of this.

Potential Consequences:

I WAS AT A STOP SIGN TURNING ONTO A HIGHWAY, I ACCELERATED AND MY CAR WAS MOVED INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND MY CAR TURNED OFF AND THEN TURNED BACK ON JUST A SECOND OR SO LATER AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE AGAIN. I AM NOT CERTAIN WHAT HAPPENED AS THERE WERE NO CODES THROWN AND THE CAR CONTINUED TO OPERATE AFTER TURNING ITSELF BACK ON. I AM WONDERING IF THERE IS SOMETHING IN THE COMPUTER PROGRAMMING THAT IS FAULTY. WHEN I GOT HOME, I CHECKED ALL THE CONNECTIONS AND DID NOT SEE ANY OBVIOUS FAULTS. I ALSO CHECKED ALL FLUID LEVELS AND CAPS JUST TO BE CERTAIN IT WASN'T SOMETHING RELATED TO ANY OF THAT SOMEHOW. IT IS SCARY THOUGH BECAUSE THERE WERE VEHICLES COMING TOWARD ME FROM BOTH DIRECTIONS.
