2016 Mitsubishi Outlander complaints

THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK AUTOMATICALLY AFTER REACHING A CERTAIN SPEED, THE DRIVER MUST ALWAYS LOCK THE DOORS MANUALLY, THERE IS NO SETTING TO HAVE THEM LOCK AFTER DRIVING, IF YOU DO LOCK THEM MANUALLY THEY WILL UNLOCK, SOMETIMES WHILE IN MOTION.

WHEN DRIVING THE DOORS DON'T LOCK AUTOMATICALLY, I HAD SOMEONE(STRANGE R) WALK UP TO MY CAR AND OPEN THE DOOR WHILE AT STOP LIGHT. I JUST KNEW THE DOORS LOCK AUTOMATICALLY AS MY PAST SATURN, CHEVY, FORD CAR PURCHASES. I ASK MITSUBISHI DEALERSHIP AND THEY SPECIFIED THAT MY YEAR MODEL WASN'T BUILT WITH AUTO LOCKS. ALSO, THE DOOR PANELS DOOLIGHT UP AT NIGHT WHEN DRIVING, MAYBE IT'S AN ELECTRIC MATTER TOO.

WHEN DRIVING THE HEATER WILL SHUT OFF AS THE ENGINE LOOSES POWER AND THEN START BACK UP AND THE POWER WILL PICK BACK UP. IT IS NOT DUE TO HAVING THE HEAT FEATURE ON AUTO I DO NOT USE THAT FEATURE.

MY ENGINE HAS GOTTEN LOUDER AND VIBRATES AT LIGHTS. WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER THEY CLAIM NO CODES BUT IT IS LOUDER AND TICKING AND HAS LOST MORE POWER TO THE ENGINE THAN BEFORE. THE CAR HESITATES AND SMELLS HOT LIKE A PART IS HOT

MY SEAT HINGES THAT ADHERE TO THE FLOOR HAVE RUSTED ON THE DRIVER SEAT

WE THEN DROVE VEHICLE ON 08/12/2017 TO MILLEDGEVILLE, GA(4 HOURS FROM HOME) AND BEGAN NOTICING HESITATION AND ACCELERATION ISSUES WHEN ARRIVING ABOUT AN HOUR FROM OUR DESTINATION. UPON LEAVING THAT EVENING TO HEAD BACK TO CHARLOTTE(4 HOURS FROM HOME) THE VEHICLE TOOK A LONG TIME TO PICK UP SPEED AT LIGHTS AND INTERSECTIONS. ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I WAS ABLE TO PULL INTO AUTO ZONE AND CAPTURE ERROR CODES. WE CHECKED INTO HOTEL AND PLANNED TO LEAVE IN THE MORNING. THE NEXT MORNING, DROVE NOT IN 1/8 OF A MILE AND VEHICLE STALLED OUT AT AN INTERSECTION AND HAD TO BE PUSHED OFF THE ROAD.

I'VE OWNED ALMOST 10 VEHICLES OVER THE YEARS - INCLUDING HIDS AND HALOGENS - AND HAVE NEVER HAD HEADLIGHTS BURN OUT THIS QUICKLY OR AT EXACTLY THE SAME TIME.

AT APPROXIMATELY 18,500 MILES I NOTICED THAT THERE WAS VIBRATION IN BOTH THE STEERING WHEEL AND BRAKE PEDAL WHEN BRAKING. BASED ON THE MILEAGE I FIGURED IT MUST BE SOMETHING WRONG OUTSIDE OF THE BRAKES - TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE AT JEFF D'AMBROSIO AND WAS TOLD THAT I NEEDED FRONT ROTORS, BACK ROTORS AND BACK BRAKE PADS - AND THEY WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. I TOOK IT TO SOMEONE ELSE TO SERVICE THE VEHICLE (KEPT THE PARTS) AND REPLACED THE FRONT BRAKES AND ROTORS AND WILL HAVE THE BACK DONE THIS WEEKEND - PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

NEW LESS THEN 3000 MILES, TRAVELING ON UTAH HIGHWAY 65-80MPH IN COLD WINTER WEATHER. THE AIRBAG SYSTEM MAINTENANCE NEEDED WARNING COMES ON RANDOMLY, CAUSE UNKNOWN. HOWEVER WE NOTICED WHEN EVER WE ARE USING BOTH CHARGING OUTLETS IN THE FRONT TO CHARGE OUR PHONE AND IPAD WE HAD THE PROBLEM. WHEN WE UNPLUGGED THE CHARGERS THE PROBLEM STOPPED. BUT IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THE AIRBAG SERVICE WARNING WOULD TURN ON FOR AN HOUR AND THEN SHUT OFF FOR THREE COME BACK ON FOR A FEW MINUTES AND SHUT OFF FOR AN HOUR IT WAS ALWAYS VERY RANDOM WHEN AND HOW LONG IT TURNED ON. BUT ONE THING WE ARE CERTAIN OF IS IT DID NOT HAPPEN AND ONLY HAPPENED WHEN BOTH CHARGING OUTLETS WERE BEING USED.

ON 9/19/2016, I PURCHASED A NEW 2016 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER GT AWC. ON 10/3, WE TOOK IT THROUGH ITS FIRST CAR WASH. DURING THE WASH, WATER DRIPPED ONTO MY FACE FROM THE SUNROOF. AFTER THE WASH, WE NOTICED WATER INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE ON THE PASSENGER'S DOOR SURROUNDING THE SPEAKER NEAR THE WINDOW. WE PROVIDED PICTURES TO THE DEALERSHIP WHEN THE CAR WAS DROPPED OFF FOR THIS AND OTHER ISSUES ON 10/6. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THEY WERE UNABLE TO LOCATE ANY LEAKS AND I PICKED UP THE CAR ON 10/7. ON 10/8, THE VEHICLE LEAKED IN THE SAME LOCATIONS DURING RAINFALL. I EMAILED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT; ATTACHED MORE PICTURES & VIDEO. THE DEALERSHIP SETUP AN APPOINTMENT FOR 10/13. THEY WERE UNABLE TO ADDRESS THE LEAKS AND BROUGHT IN A THIRD PARTY SPECIALIST. THE SPECIALIST CLAIMED TO RESOLVE THE LEAKS ON 10/17. ON 10/27, I TOOK THE VEHICLE THROUGH ITS SECOND CAR WASH. IT LEAKED, ONCE AGAIN. I TOOK (AND PROVIDED) SEVERAL MORE PICTURES AND A VIDEO. ON 10/31, I RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOR THE THIRD TIME. I WAS TOLD THAT THE THIRD PARTY SPECIALIST HAD BEEN SCHEDULED TO REASSESS THE VEHICLE ON 11/1. I REQUESTED THAT THE DEALERSHIP TAKE THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE SAME CAR WASH I'D USED TO CONFIRM IT NO LONGER LEAKED ONCE THE SPECIALIST WAS DONE. ON 11/2, I RECEIVED AN UPDATE THAT THE SPECIALIST HAD RESOLVED 'A FEW MORE LEAKS'. THE DEALERSHIP PLANNED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE CAR WASH ONCE SOME PAINT-RELATED ISSUES WERE ADDRESSED. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP ON 11/5 AND THE ONLY UPDAT

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.

ON WED. SEPTEMBER 7, 2016, AVIS RENT A CAR AT HOBBY AIRPORT IN HOUSTON, TX RENTED THIS VEHICLE TO ME WITH AN OPEN SAFETY RECALL. I DIDN'T REALIZE IT UNTIL ~15 MINUTES AFTER I LEFT THE AIRPORT AND THE TIRE BLEW OUT ON THE FREEWAY. ONCE I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY GET OFF THE FREEWAY, I PULLED INTO A GAS STATION AND INSPECTED THE CAR. FINDINGS INCLUDE: 1) LOW TIRE GAUGE LIGHT ON (AFTER LEAVING THE AIRPORT, BEFORE THE TIRE BLEW OUT), 2) WHAT LOOKED LIKE DUCT TAPE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE WINDSHIELD, POSSIBLY INDICATING A NEW WINDSHIELD HAD RECENTLY BEEN INSTALLED 3) A BROKEN TAIL LIGHT ON THE LEFT REAR 4) THE KEY TAG HAD THE PHRASE "SAFETY RECALL" ON IT AND 5) THE TIRE BLEW OUT. I CALLED AVIS EMERGENCY ASSISTANCE AND TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED AND WHAT I FOUND. I TOLD THEM I WAS NOT COMFORTABLE DRIVING THE CAR AS IT APPEARED TO HAVE A SAFETY RECALL AND POSSIBLY HAD BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. I WAS TOLD I WOULD HAVE TO BRING THE CAR BACK TO HOBBY AIRPORT. ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE REPLACED THE DAMAGED TIRE, AND I DROVE THE CAR TO THE NEAREST AVIS APPROXIMATELY 6 MILES AWAY AND EXCHANGED THE CAR. WHEN I RETURNED THE 2ND CAR, I TOLD THE LADY WHO CHECKED IN THE CAR WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE 1ST CAR. SHE INFORMED A MANAGER AND CAME BACK TO ME. SHE SAID, HER MANAGER SAID THE CAR WAS ON A RECALL AND SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN RENTED. THE MANAGER ALSO TOLD HER I COULD SUE AVIS. MY INTENTION FOR SHARING THIS IS I AM NOT CONVINCED AVIS WILL DO ANYTHING DIFFERENT TO ENSURE SOMEONE ELSE DOESN'T END UP WITH A DEFECTIVE VEHICL

RESPECTFULLY, WE BOUGHT OUR BRAND NEW 2016 OUTLANDER FROM THE DEALERSHIP THIS MAY. MY WIFE REAR ENDED A CAR LESS THAN A MONTH LATER ON THE HIGHWAY. SHE SAID THE CAR DIDN'T STOP WHEN SHE HIT THE BRAKES AND THAT THE BRAKES DON'T WORK. THE CAR WAS REPAIRED BY GEICO FOR $20K DAMAGE PAID AND SHE SAID SHE WASN'T DRIVING IT ANYMORE. SHE HAD MULTIPLE INJURIES FROM THE AIRBAGS AND SAW THE DOCTOR. AFTER REPAIRS, WE ENDED UP SWITCHING CARS AND THE OUTLANDER BECAME MY CAR AND I NOTICED THAT IT SEEMED VERY HEAVY LIKE IT WAS SURGING FORWARD AND RESISTED STOPPING. TWO MONTHS LATER I CHANGED THE OIL ON THE OTHER CAR, SO I ASKED HER TO TAKE THE OUTLANDER JUST FOR THE DAY. SHE DIDN'T WANT TO DRIVE IT, BUT I SAID JUST BE VERY CAREFUL. SHE HAD A SECOND ACCIDENT THAT DAY ON THE HIGHWAY CAUSING $10K DAMAGES FOR REPAIR AND THE AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED THIS TIME AND HER HEAD, CHEST AND KNEES HIT HARD AGAINST THE STEERING WHEEL AND DASHBOARD AND HER BACK SNAPPED AND SHE IS SEEING A CHIROPRACTOR NOW FOR THE PAIN. SHE IS A GOOD DRIVER AND HAS NEVER HIT ANYONE FROM BEHIND AND NOW HAS DONE SO TWO TIMES IN TWO MONTHS? AGAIN SHE TOLD ME THE CAR DIDN'T STOP WHEN SHE STEPPED ON THE BRAKES. LAST WEEK WE RECEIVED A FACTORY RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL FOR THE ACCELERATOR. I TOOK THE CAR IN THIS SATURDAY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. WHEN I DROVE THE CAR AFTER THE REPAIR AND APPLIED THE BRAKES NOW IN COMPARISON TO BEFORE IT STOPS VERY WELL AND IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT. I BELIEVE MITSUBISHI'S DEFECTIVE ACCELE

PURCHASED NEW VEHICLE WITH 9 MILES ON THE CAR. AT 283 MILES (ON A ROAD TRIP DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY) THE "POWER STEERING SERVICE REQUIRED" NOTIFICATION CAME ON AND I COULD NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. ONCE HOME, TOOK THE CAR TO DEALERSHIP AND "NO SYSTEM FAILURE" CAME UP ON THE MACHINE AT THE DEALERSHIP AND I WAS TOLD TO CALL BACK IF IS HAPPENS AGAIN. TOOK THE CAR HOME AND AT 788 MILES THE SAME INCIDENT OCCURRED AGAIN WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND COMING OUT OF A SHOPPING CENTER (1459 MILES) AND I COULD NOT TURN MY WHEEL. AT 1459 MILES, THE CAR WAS TOWED TO NEAREST DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM ON A BRAND NEW 2016 CAR. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING ON A BRAND NEW CAR AND I WAS IN TRAFFIC WITH MY INFANT SON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, IT INDEPENDENTLY SURGED FORWARD WITHOUT WARNING.

PAINT IS CHIPPING AFTER CAR WASH

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER. WHILE MAKING A TURN, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED BUT FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, AN ABNORMAL NOISE WAS HEARD WITHOUT WARNING.

THE PAINT ON THE HOOD IS CHIPPING ONLY AFTER 2,000 MILES AND ITS SECOND CAR WASH! I PARK MY NEW CAR IN THE GARAGE AND DON'T EVEN TAKE IT TO WORK, IT'S ONLY MY WEEKEND VEHICLE. MY 12 YEAR OLD SATURN'S PAINT JOB LOOKS BETTER THAN MY 3 MONTH OLD NEW MITSUBISHI. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY NO CLEAR COAT ON TOP, OR PRIMER UNDER THE PAINT. WHEN COMPARED TO "DINGS" ON MY 12 YEAR OLD SATURN, IT IS OBVIOUS THERE ARE A FEW LAYERS OF MATERIAL BEFORE IT GETS DOWN TO THE BODY - WITH THE MITSUBISHI, IT'S JUST PAINT AND THEN METAL. I HAD THE WESTERN REGIONAL MANAGER, BILL FORDYCE, INSPECT MY VEHICLE, AND DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE PAINT IS CLEARLY CHIPPING OFF IN MORE THAN ONE SPOT ON THE HOOD, HE HAD THE AUDACITY TO SAY IT WAS DAMAGE CAUSED BY ROCKS. I POINTED OUT TO HIM THAT IF THE QUALITY OF THE PAINT JOB HAD BEEN BETTER, THE PAINT WOULD NOT HAVE FLAKED. ON THE LOT, THE NEXT CLOSEST MITSUBISHI ALSO HAD SIMILAR DAMAGE. I POINTED THIS OUT TO HIM AND HIS RESPONSE WAS THAT IT WAS HIS VEHICLE AND HE WAS AWARE OF IT. I WANTED MY HOOD PAINTED CORRECTLY, BUT HE REFUSED AND SAID THAT ESSENTIALLY, THIS IS THE QUALITY OF WORK OF MITSUBISHI. DO NOT BUY A MITSUBISHI!
