general problems of the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander

The contact owns a 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander sport. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to start. The contact replaced the battery; however, while driving, the vehicle jerked and hesitated to respond upon depressing the accelerator pedal. The traction control warning light and an unknown warning light were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the map sensor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred while driving. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, but was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that they could not assist because the vehicle was not covered under Mitsubishi campaign number: sr?16?006. The failure mileage was unknown. The VIN was unavailable.

I was on the freeway and all of the sudden the transmission stopped working and I was unable to get to the side of the road safely do to loss of power and traffic conditions. There was transmission warning light that came on and right after that when I pressed on the acceleration the engine would rev, but there was no reaction to the gears. This resulted in me being stuck in an active lane of traffic and nearly being hit several times. I called the police and informed them because I didn’t want to cause an accident but do to another accident I was stranded for 50 minutes in the active lane of traffic. Apparently this is a known issue with this transmission but the manufacturer is not responding and issued a recall like it needs to. Something like this could get someone seriously injured or killed! I’m lucky no one was injured in my situation but on a very busy freeway something like this could cause a huge pile up if a car all of the sudden is just stopped in the middle of the road. Who knows how many people could be hurt or die in a situation like that happening.

Transmission has filled me twice now. The first time the transmission out was when the car is at approximately 42,000 miles. The first time it went out we were able to pull over safely, but it just gave out while going high speeds on the highway. The second time was luckily in my neighborhood where we were able to coast it back home. Both times not much warning was given. The first time was the one that put us and others at risk being on a road with 60+ speed limits.

Vehicle just stopped shifting. Vehicle can go in first and reverse, but that is it.

While driving and automatic the cat jumps rpms and doesn't shift right when in manual it drives perfectly fine.

I was driving on the highway and with no warning the vehicle lost pressure when pressing on the gas peddle to drive to maintain speed limit when driving the car. 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. Please note that his has occurred to other 2014 Mitsubishi Outlanders with 50,000 or less that were purchased at the lancaster Mitsubishi in lancaster, PA.

Speed dropped and won't go out of second gear, mechanic says all of these transmissions are bad and dangerous, happened on city street.

Tl the contact owns a 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander. While driving, a message flashed indicating to slow down because the transmission was overheating. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer. The vehicle was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 16v563000 (power train); although, the vehicle exhibited the same failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 72,000.

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.

When I am accelerating, pushing the gas pedal the rpms go down significantly then riser significantly. Now there is a deep rumble or vibration if I go above 50 and the check engine light is on. I live in flat terrain with occasional hills but drive mostly highways.
