36 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 12/29/2021

The hood shakes when driving above 40mph, it increases intensity as you drive faster, feeling like it will come unlatched, resulting in an accident. Is there going to be a recall for this?.

37 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 12/28/2021

Driver side mirror does not always open back up when unlocking the car. Have to close the mirrors and then open them again. Cruise control will hard stop when a vehicle comes in front and takes too long to speed back up after car is no longer in front. Dangerous on high speed highways. You have to turn off cruise control when this happens to get back up to speed. Hood replacement was requested a year ago. Still waiting and still nervous driving it. Backup camera still turns off in reverse. You have to wait for it to come back on before continuing reversing. So many problems from day one. If I could, I'd get rid of this.

38 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 12/21/2021

My vehicle hood is shaking/fluttering as if it is not latched properly. I am concerned this may fly up and cause an accident. I have had my vehicle less than a month.

39 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 12/05/2021

The hood vibrates uncontrollably at highway speed. It looks like the hood is about to come off and crash into the windshield. I called both the manufacturer and the dealer. I was told they know about the problem, but they have not figured out a fix. Mitsubishi told me they might have to replace the hood and repaint the entire car or add additional equipment to secure the hood. Mitsubishi sent me an email survey which I filled it out and returned to them. The second time I called them about the problem they told me to take it to the dealer. The problem first occurred when I drove it at highway speed. When I took another highway drive it happened again, and I pulled over to make sure the hood was closed and locked into place. Finally on January 15, 2022, I took a longer trip to another state, and it was really bad. Another person in the car saw the obvious problem and we pulled over to check the hood. We did not know why the hood was bouncing so violently and I immediately contacted both the manufacturer and dealer.

40 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 12/01/2021

At higher speeds 55+ the hood of the car flexes and moves violently as if it were not completely latched. Upon further inspection once I stopped the hood was properly latched.

41 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 10/15/2021

Since having purchased the vehicle in October 2021, the hood flutters/vibrates whenever the vehicle is being driven at speeds of 60mph or more. The faster the vehicle drives, the more violently the hood flutters/vibrates. We have taken it to the dealer for repair, and they informed us that Mitsubishi is aware of the issue but they have yet to issue repair or do a recall. After speaking with Mitsubishi corporate in the us, they said they are not planning to do a recall or offer a timeframe for a repair, but fully admitted to being aware of the issue, after doing research online, I found that many if not most of the 2022 Outlanders have this very serious issue. Not only is it scary driving with the hood vibrating, but it will cause unnecessary wear and tear on the vehicle and possibly cause a catastrophic incident. The vehicle is readily available for inspection. We want Mitsubishi to do the right thing and recall the vehicle and provide a permeant fix ASAP.
