general problems of the 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer

Tl- the contact owns a 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer. The contact stated that while driving approximately 70 mph the vehicle suddenly shut off. The vehicle was examined by an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the bolts to the I-beam connecting rod had come loose causing damage to the engine block. The vehicle was not repaired. The local dealer kelly Mitsubishi located at 536 state Ave. Emmaus, PA. Was notified of the failure, the manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 186,000. Jft.

The car started flashing a warning sign and loosing power. When trying to accelerate it stops. Eventually it puts the car into a limp mode and will stall altogether. This happens any long distance trip. My car year and model is not the only Lancer being effected by this computer glitch. It’s very dangerous due to the fact that the cars loosing power while you’re driving. It doesn’t matter if you’re in the middle of the highway it will just stop working. All research I have done points to an error within the computer that tells the car when to cool down the transmission. I have seen many blogs, forums and actually know another Lancer owner who’s model is a 2012 and has the exact same issue. I don’t know why this hasn’t been addressed yet when it’s affecting more than just one Lancer here or there. Bad for the engine bad for the transmission bad for my travel. And the worst part is that any mechanic is unable to detect the issue unless the car is actively coding. I’ve had this car for 3 years now and I feel it’s a big safety concern and needs to looked into. First occurrence was on a trip down to a local lake car stalled on the side of a highway this was in 2018. Now any trip further than over 30 miles or more the car will throw this code it looks like a gear and it has a exclamation point in the middle. It’s progressively getting worse and effecting the over all performance more each time I wish to travel. Please find out why this issue is occurring in multiple years of the same model of car because it inconvenient and dangerous. I would hate for myself and my kids to get killed in an accident due to not being able to get out of the way of a bigger vehicle or a truck.

Bad injector caused cylinder failure or valvr constant valve tick. Blown spark plugs caused piston meltdown causing for the pistong rod to shoot throught the block cause a fire to the engine. . Luckly I stop the fire took it to a delaership to verify the cause of the damage but the technicinas told me that theres nothing they could do because the battery die there for it reset the computer module erasing all the data with the probable cause and nothing was done after that. . Bought a new engine and now after 20,000 miles I get the same issue but Mitsubishi dose not wanna be resposible for a replace engine to which they replace.

There was no incident. I received a notice from Mitsubishi for the recall. The problem is/was Mitsubishi didn't make easy for the consumer to have the recall issue fixed. My dealer (glendale Mitsubishi) said they don't do recalls on saturdays. So myself and four other consumers got told they don't do recalls on saturdays. It was done there is also a recall on the transmission, I don't remember for what. I received a letter saying nothing would be done unless something broke.

My car caught fire last night and burned up while turned off, parked and unattended. Another similiar situation occurred: boise --- a vehicle recall you may not have heard about that could put you in danger. Imagine your car is parked in your garage and a fire erupts under the hood of it -- spreading to your home. It's a national safety recall announced by Mitsubishi a few months ago that we found has affected many drivers since then and now possibly one local family. A boise home caught on fire last month and fire investigators say the cause was undetermined, but they say it started in or near a Mitsubishi Lancer parked in the garage -- a car that is included in the recall. Mitsubishi initiated the recall of certain crossovers and cars a few months ago and has added additional vehicles to its list since then. The national highway traffic safety administration says the vehicles contain a defective cruise control switch that could lead to a fire at any time, even while the vehicle is turned-off, parked and unattended. Across the country there are stories about the vehicles catching on fire. In minnesota, a 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer evolution parked in an attached garage started a fire and burned a home to the ground. In orlando, florida, a family lost everything when their house burned down because their 2009 Mitsubishi outlander burst into flames. Boise fire investigators say a 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer was parked inside the garage and they were unable to pinpoint where the fire started because the hood of the car, the engine and the front of the garage were so badly damaged. The recall includes more than 5 vehicle models built from 2006 to now. Mitsubishi motors says it has contacted owners to notify them of any recalls.
