NHTSA Campaign: 25V369000 SAFETY RECALL
198.9K Vehicles Affected
Recall Date: Jun 2, 2025
Safety Issue:

Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (Mitsubishi) is recalling certain 2022-2024 Outlander and 2023-2025 Outlander PHEV vehicles. Due to a software error in the in-vehicle infotainment system (A-IVI), the rearview camera image may freeze, or not appear on the display. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 111, "Rear Visibility."

Potential Risk:
A rearview image that does not display properly reduces the driver's view of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
FREE Recall Solution:
Dealers will update the A-IVI software, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed June 30, 2025. Mitsubishi's number for this recall is SR-25-001. This recall replaces and expands previous NHTSA recall number 23V345. Vehicles previously repaired under recall 23V345 will need to have the new remedy completed.

STRUCTURE:BODY

Potential Consequences:

I purchased 2022 Outlander in September of 2021. The hood on the vehicle at any speed looks as though it is going to fly up but gets much worse at higher speeds and on the highway. It actually looks like it is going to break loose and fly up and hit the wind shield. It is scary to drive at times thinking this will happen. Also the leather material on each side of the console has come undone and has been on back order since November 2021. I have called dealership and they are going to check hood when I go into get interior issue fixed.

Potential Consequences:

The hood vibrates uncontrollably at highway speed. It looks like the hood is about to come off and crash into the windshield. I called both the manufacturer and the dealer. I was told they know about the problem, but they have not figured out a fix. Mitsubishi told me they might have to replace the hood and repaint the entire car or add additional equipment to secure the hood. Mitsubishi sent me an email survey which I filled it out and returned to them. The second time I called them about the problem they told me to take it to the dealer. The problem first occurred when I drove it at highway speed. When I took another highway drive it happened again, and I pulled over to make sure the hood was closed and locked into place. Finally on January 15, 2022, I took a longer trip to another state, and it was really bad. Another person in the car saw the obvious problem and we pulled over to check the hood. We did not know why the hood was bouncing so violently and I immediately contacted both the manufacturer and dealer.

Hood flutters excessively at highway speed. I don't want to drive above 60mph for fear that the hood and latch will fatigue and strain to keep the hood in place. I fear the hood flying off and causing an accident or fatality. This is a design issue that may be life threatening and is keeping me from utilizing the vehicle at highway speed thus diminishing value and causing excessive fear of endangering the highway safety.

Potential Consequences:

Upon purchasing a BRAND new 2022 vehicle you expect the vehicle to be in great shape with no cosmetic issues nor issues under the hood well that wasn’t the case for me. I test drove the vehicle locally and it was fine. After a couple weeks I needed to drive on I95 and when I got up close to 60MPH THE HOOD STARTED FLUTTERING LIKE IT WAS ABOUT TO BLOW OFF! I was freaking out and swerved because I was watching the hood praying f it wouldn’t fly off! My kids were in the vehicle with me as well. I called and spoke with Mitsubishi and they offered a temporary sealant that “could” stop the fluttering. It didn’t! I contacted them immediately and informed them this has to be replaced or fixed correctly! I’ve been going back and forth with the dealer and WellsFargo to cancel the loan and get my money back! The dealer told me several times since 2021 November that the manufacturer should have a new hood within one month and it’s about to February and it still isn’t fixed! I was told that reversing the contract and getting my money back is out of the question and they will have a new hood by February. I’ve been an emotional wreck! I am a single mom of 3 and got out of one disabled vehicle just to get into a lemon and be low balled by the dealer giving me the run around and won’t refund my money for an error of what NEED to be a RECALL on the 2022 Outlander hoods! Several people have this issue and I’ve posted it on my social media as well! I’ve been told by the dealer the hood won’t blow off and I informed them they cannot guarantee me that especially since they didn’t make it the manufacturer’s did! I pray for my safety and the safety of others but I am ready to sue Mitsubishi for this Lemon they sold me knowing it had a hood flutter issue! I have documentation of every person time and conversation as well as voicemails left please help me!

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

I purchased this vehicle on 12/24/2021. Today 01/03/2022 I was taking it to the dealership for a very severe case of the hood fluttering and my forward collision warning came on for no reason and began flashing and I got the message that the system is off. I informed the dealership about it and they said there was some glitch in the system and they reset it. At about one mile from home after leaving the dealership, the same warning came on. I'm afraid that in an emergency situation where and when needed the system will not respond as designed.
