New vehicle purchased Nov 16 2015. Two weeks after bought, vehicle began to slow down, then hesitate, stall out. The vehicle was put into shop due to a computer chip issue that occurred on 'the line. ' got vehicle back and same problem. Mitsubishi put back in shop and replaced the transmission in Dec 2015. Now same issue, stalling in lighted intersections, at stop signs, won't speed up, decelerates. Mitsubishi's answer? put back in shop and going back in today, Jan 12, 2016. Three times in less than three months I have had vehicle. I am afraid for my family member's safety while in the vehicle and my daughter in law who dries and rides in the vehicle is seven months pregnant. Please help us!! do not want anyone using these vehicles to get injured as Mitsubishi is aware of line problem and repairing many of these 2015's with same issue with no recall and will not replace the vehicle. Thank you.

Other Fuel System problem #12

Yes I have a 2015 Outlander and I am have two issues with it. Number 1. Have the time the car doesnt want to start. I turn the key and it barely wants to turn over so I turn it off, wait a minute or two then I will try again and then it will start normally. The 2nd issue is the usually when I start the vehicle, I smell gas fumes like crazy. I have taken the vehicle to the dealership and they told me nothing was wrong. These issues are still not fixed and it is giving me a bad taste in my mouth having to deal with the two dealerships not very professional at all. I have witnesses two both of these issues and they keep telling me nothings wrong with the vehicle.
