1 Transmission Noise problem of the 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander

Failure Date: 10/24/2018

While driving, when you take your foot off your accelerator, the transmission makes a roaring noise trying to slow down the car. Took it into the dealership service for them to look at it. They said that its the transmission and they have seen alot of Outlanders with my year coming in having to get the entire transmission replaced. They are surprised that there hasn't been a recall on the issue since its happened so frequent with the 2016 Outlanders.

4 Transmission Noise problem of the 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander

Failure Date: 09/08/2016

Ever sense I have purchased this vehicle it has had a noise in the front. It sounds as if it is coming from the control arm. When it started getting worse I called to tell the guy I bought it from and he said there was a lot of people thinking this, but it is just a noise from the bottom of the car. This only happens in reverse and it sounds like a popping noise coming from the bottom passenger tire. I will have this looked at hopefully on Thursday. Also, I have a smell of gas coming from the engine when it either idles or is driven for a long period of time. I will hopefully have this checked out as well. Also, when the car is turned off I smell antifreeze. . . Badly in the car and also outside of it near the grill. Also, the transmission drags when I try to accelerate or if it has been driving for a long period of time.
