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 REARVIEW CAMERA SYSTEM SUDDENLY QUIT SHOWING VIDEO WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE. THE CAMERA ITSELF STILL WORKS AS I CAN GO INTO THE SETTINGS FOR BRIGHTNESS, COLOR, ETC., THE BACK UP SENSORS STILL BEEP WHEN I AM BACKING UP AND THE REVERSE LIGHTS STILL WORK AS WELL. FROM LOOKING AT THE MITSUBISHI FORUM (HTTPS://WWW.MITSUBISHI-FORUMS.COM/THREADS/REVERSE-CAMERA-NOT-COMING-ON.72338/#POST-360974) , APPARENTLY THIS IS AN ISSUE FOR MANY PEOPLE. ONE FORUM MEMBER STATES AN ETACS CODING ENTRY CALLED 'REAR_CMR_PRST' SAYS IT IS 'NOT PRESENT.' I FEEL THIS IS MOST DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE, PARTICULARLY WHEN BACKING OUT OF A PUBLIC PARKING SPOT. I REALIZE THIS IS A CONVENIENCE ITEM FOR MY YEAR OF VEHICLE (2014), BUT SINCE THE CAMERON GULBRANSEN KIDS TRANSPORTATION SAFETY ACT OF 2007 BECAME LAW AS OF MAY 1, 2018, THESE ITEMS ARE STANDARD EQUIPMENT ON ALL NEW VEHICLES. FROM READING THE FORUM, ANY REPAIRS ARE AT THE EXPENSE OF THE CONSUMER, AND MY LOCAL MITSUBISHI SHOPS HAVE NO IDEA OF WHAT IS WRONG AND HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THE PROBLEM. MANY IN THE FORUM MENTION 'VEHICLE SIGNAL CHECK' MENU, ETACS PROGRAMMING, CAN COMMUNICATIONS, CODING DATA, AND OTHER WIRING INFORMATION THE AVERAGE CONSUMER IS OBLIVIOUS OF. IF REARVIEW CAMERAS ARE REQUIRED EQUIPMENT DUE TO PASSAGE OF THE ABOVE LAW, SHOULDN'T THIS ISSUE BE A SAFETY RECALL FOR REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF THE DEFECT AT MANUFACTURER EXPENSE? BY THE WAY, THIS CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENT, HAD ANY DAMAGE DONE TO THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN WELL CARED FOR AND MAINTAINED.

THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS CHECKED AND THERE WAS THE RECOMMENDED LEVEL OF TRANSMISSION FLUID. MECHANIC STATED ERROR CODE P0868. PER MECHANIC/TRANSMISSION SPECIALIST THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH MITSUBISHI TRANSMISSIONS AND THEY ARE ONLY ABLE TO GET THE TRANSMISSION FROM A DEALER.

MY 2014, MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT, FEELS LIKE IT'S WOBBLING AND I HEAR A CLUNKING NOISE THEN I PRESS ON MY BRAKES, THE NOISE GETS LOUDER WHEN IT SLOWS DOWN. I HAD IT INSPECTED AND THEY CHANGED TWO OF THE ROTORS IN AUGUST, SO I THOUGHT THAT WOULD HELP, BUT IT DIDN'T IT STILL DOING THE SAME THING.

TOOK VEHICLE IN TO DEALER DUE TO A VIBRATION COMING FROM TRANSMISSION, AND ALSO, MY VEHICLE WOULD BE SLUGGISH WHEN IT WARMED UP. MOST CONCERNING, WAS WHEN SLOWING AT AN INTERSECTION TO TURN, AND THEN PRESSING THE GAS TO ACCELERATE, THE VEHICLE WOULD BE HESITANT. THIS ALMOST RESULTED IN A CAR ACCIDENT. BASED ON OTHER REVIEWERS, I FIND THIS TO BE A CONCERN FOR MORE THAN JUST MYSELF. I HAD TO PURCHASE A BRAND NEW TRANSMISSION AT $7,100. TOTAL MILES IS 56,000.

I PLACED MY CHILD IN THE CAR SEAT IN THE REAR SEAT OF THE VEHICLE. IT WAS A WARM DAY SO ONCE SHE WAS SAFELY FASTENED, I STARTED THE CAR TO RUN THE AIR CONDITIONER. IT HAS A KEYLESS START AND THE KEYS WERE IN MY POCKET. ONCE THE CAR WAS STARTED, I GOT OUT TO GO BACK TO THE BACK SEAT WITH MY DAUGHTER WHILE WE WAITED ON MY WIFE, WHO WAS STILL IN THE RESTAURANT PAYING THE BILL. WHEN I GOT OUT OF THE CAR, THE KEYS WERE STILL IN MY POCKET. I CLOSED THE DRIVER DOOR. IT STARTED BEEPING BECAUSE THE KEYS WERE NOT PRESENT (THEY WERE IN MY POCKET, NOT THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE). THIS CAUSED THE DOORS TO LOCK. I TRIED TO OPEN ALL OF THE DOORS, THEY WERE ALL LOCKED. THE KEY FOB WOULD NOT UNLOCK THE DOORS. I PRESSED THE BUTTON ON THE KEY FOB TO RELEASE THE MANUAL KEY. I INSTERTED IT INTO THE KEY HOLE AND TURNED. IT WOULD NOT RESPOND. NONE OF THE BUTTONS WOULD RESPOND. MANUAL KEY APPEARS TO ALSO BE ELECTRONIC. MY 16 MONTH OLD CHILD WAS LOCKED IN THE RUNNING CAR ALONE. MY WIFE CAME OUT AND WAS TRYING TO APPEASE HER THROUGH THE WINDOW. WE CALLED EMERGENCY SERVICES AND THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS DISPATCHED. AFTER ABOUT 15 MINUTES, MY UNSUPERVISED DAUGHTER PULLED HER BARRETTE FROM HER HAIR AND PLACED IT IN HER MOUTH. I PULLED A GREEN STAKE FROM THE GROUND THAT WAS PREVIOUSLY SUPPORTING AN ADOLESCENT TREE. I THREW IT LIKE A JAVELIN 10 TIMES AT THE CAR WINDOW IN AN ATTEMPT TO BREAK IT. IT WOULDN'T BREAK. LUCKILY, A MAN PULLED UP WITH A SMALL WINDOW BREAKING HAMMER DESIGNED TO BREAK WINDOWS FROM THE INSIDE OF A CAR SUBMERGED IN WATER. I USED THIS TO EVENTUALLY BREAK THE WINDOW AND DISLODGE THE ITEM FROM MY DAUGHTER'S THROAT. THE CAR LOCKED ME OUT ALTHOUGH A RETAINED THE KEYS. LUCKILY THE VEHICLE WAS RUNNING. ANY PARENT WHO PARKS THE CAR AND GETS OUT TO REMOVE THEIR CAR FROM THE REAR SEAT COULD EXPERIENCE THE SAME FATE. I CAN REPLICATE THIS ISSUE ON COMMAND. IT WASN'T A FLUKE.

ON MARCH 6, 2018 I WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH. I REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE IN SLOW MOVING BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC. WHEN I HIT THE BRAKE THE CAR BEGAN TO SLIDE STRAIGHT FORWARD. NO PULSATION FROM THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. I WAS AND AM VERY SURPRISED THAT MY CAR DID NOT STOP IN TIME. IN THE INTERIM I SETTLED MY CLAIM WITH MY INSURANCE COMPANY. ON 3/29/2018. ON 3/30/2018 I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM MITSUBISHI TELLING ME OF AN ISSUE THEY CALL A "PARKING BREAK" PROBLEM. I HAVE ASKED SEVERAL MECHANICS ABOUT THE POSSIBLE NEED TO REPLACE "THE PISTON ASSEMBLY OF THE REAR BRAKE CALIPER WILL BE REPLACED WITH A COUNTERMEASURE UNIT". I HAVE BEE ASSURED THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A FAILURE TO THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM. BECAUSE I NO LONGER OWN THE CAR I HAVE NOTIFIED ALLSTATE INSURANCE OF THE PRESENT RECALL. IF POSSIBLE THIS SHOULD BE AN URGENT RECALL. SADLY I HAVE LOST THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS AND A RECORD OF 36 YEARS OF ACCIDENT FREE DRIVING. PLEASE INVESTIGATE
