The Exterior Lighting problem

Low beam headlamps have been going completely out. This happened when in motion on a highway . It is difficult to navigate and be seen when this happened. I have taken the vehicle to a Mitsubishi dealer for repair but the problem has recurred 4 times.   Read details...

The Brake Light problem

While braking, the driver side brake light is only working when the headlights are not turned on. I read up on Mitsubishi recalling brake lights on Outlanders and when I look up my VIN for a recall there is not one on there for that. This is an extreme issue.   Read details...

This vehicle was recalled in 2009 for a failure of the switch which activates the brake lamps. Mitsubishi records indicate that we had the switch replaced in March, 2009, along with another recall item.   Read details...
