My vehicle was hit from the side, spun around in the street and thrown into a metal steel fence, my air bags did not deploy. I suffered serious injuries from the accident.
''takara airbags' moving, roadway-front end collision. Car was totaled in accident airbags did not deploy.
"takata recall"i was involved in a collision in which totaled my car. The front was completely smashed and torn apart. The problem is... My air bags never deployed during this accident and we were hit while doing 35mph. I was informed that airbags deploy in car accidents if going more then 10mph or depending on where you are hit. I have both front and side airbags and so i'm curious as to why these didn't help us during this accident in which could have prevented my injuries causing me to leave the scene in an ambulance.
Back seats windows do not open. Steering wheel is so hard to operate. In motion car brakes sometimes get hard to push.
The heater fan stopped working there's heat but blowers don't work first there's a weird winding noise then nothing no warning just stopped working
I've checked everything that i could and my car still shakes a lot when i'm driving and when i am stopped it shakes even more. Every time i press on the gas it jumps up and it kind of feels like it slides. I took it for a free inspection and they said everything was ok but something is not right i can feel it when i drive.

I was driving on the highway at 70 mph and without warning both of my low beam lights went out.i checked fuses and the next time i used the car the lights worked.my wife used the car one night and was driving on a dark country road and the lights once again went out without warning.she was very upset and returned home immediately.luckily she was not too far from home.i found a recall for the 2009 outlander that sounded just like of my problem (sr-15-002; etacs ecu).i called mitsubishi and they said there was no recall on my vehicle and that i should take it to the dealer.i took it to the dealer and they verified the problem was the etacs ecu.they saidmy car was made 4 months outside the recall window but they contacted mitsubishi to see if they would authorize the repair.mitsubishi declined to authorize the repair.i contacted mitsubishi for a written reason why , but they have not responded to date.i feel that this is a safety issue which should be covered by a recall.

If u open the lever inside the car to open the doorto open it wouldn't open.it happen two times with me. I have to drive it to the dealers to open it. I'm glad i just have enough fuel to get there. To me this is a nervebreaking. U can get stuckif you are far driving and u cannot open the door to put gas. Now i bring it to the dealer service again they say that the cable going to open is wear out or broke. It's a week now the cable is not comingyet. They open the door for my had tank but i cannot close it. Or else i'm cannot open it or i can get stuck somewhere if i have no gas .if i closed the door. 46$ to the cable and they said maybe 200$ or more to the labor. This is scaryif u are driving faru trying to put gas u cannot open the dooorto get get gas u stuck. It's to expensive for the tow truck. U luckyif u are closed to a dealer. But u have to wait for the parts. Now i have to put a duck tape so nobody canclosed it or if i put gas i cannot accidentally closed it or else i'm stuckwith no gas. I'm just luckythat i have enough gas to the dealer when i bring the car to them.

Exact problems as a recall issued on select 09 outlander on 6/25/14 for power train: automatic transmission but my vin does not match as a vehicle affected by this recall.

Front cross member corrosion caused driver side lower control arm to detach. Lost control of vehicle at low speed after pulling away from a stop sign. It could have caused a serious accident at higher speed. I have contacted mitsubishi and although sympathetic, no assistance was offered and i was informed that no applicable recalls or safety notices apply to my vin, the vehicle is not driveable. Repairs will be costly, perhaps more than it is worth.
Back seats windows do not open. Steering wheel is so hard to operate. In motion car brakes sometimes get hard to push.
Front crossmember rusted through causing the vehicle to lose control. Through luck/skill managed to get to the side of the road without incident but basically the core support that holds the wheels experienced rust rot. This seems to be a big problem with many mitsubishi cars from 2003-2013 but for some reason my vehicle was excluded from this recall.
The front cross member rusted so badly that it broke off during normal driving.the frame failed at the lower a-frame on the driver's side resulting in the entire wheel/suspension assembly to fail and the vehicle crashed down to the frame and skidded along the road to stop.this is a 10 year old car that has always been kept in a garage, always parked on pavement or concrete, and has typical mileage.the vehicle was being driven normally in city traffic at the time of the failure, speed was about 30 mph.
Front cradle frame assembly is rusted to the point you can see thru the large holes.technicians recommendation frame rusted beyond repair, needs to be replaced.at a cost of $2,000

Mitsubishi outlander se front subframe crossmember cradle has corroded and will not pass inspection. The cradle is where the steering attaches and raises a safety concern should the cradle break due to the corrosion. There are many mitsubishi vehicles that have a recall on this condition, but for some reason this vehicle is not included.

Corrosion and major rust on the frame and suspension especially on the driver's side front wheel. Parts of frame and suspension just started falling off.very similar to the problems seen on the outlander of the same year but different size engine
In dec 2012 the tire sensor indicator showed one of the tires was in need of air. I went to fill it and the valve blew off and the tire deflated immediately. Had to put on the spare and have the sensor and valve replaced, $200.in may 2013 again the indicator showed a tire was low. I filled it and later that day i turned a corner and found it was totally flat and the tire was ruined. Again put on the spare and took it to tire warehouse (on a sunday my dealer was not open). They informed me the piece of the sensor/valve was missing causing it to go flat very quickly.i had to purchase 2 new tires since that one was ruined. They also noticed that the same part that was missing from the flat tire, is also missing on the other front tire causing that to loose air also . We also checked the remaining rear tire and that same part was cracked and corroded and ready to also come off and cause another flat. I in turn had them replace each sensor with a regular valve. I contacted my dealer and they were told by mitsubishi that due to the age of the car and mileage there was nothing they could do. This in turn would cost me approximately $600 for the remaining 3 sensors to be replaced. Obviously the part is poor quality and corrodes easily. It is an extremely expensive part to replace with no alternatives when the life of the part is so short.the car is not even 4 years old.the way that mitsubishi is handling this problem is unacceptable and i would never buy from them again because they do not stand behind their inferior parts.
Upon inspection, discovered that unused compact spare tire wheel was severely rusted and corroded and spare tire deflated & not holding air pressure and unusable.bolt holes and mounting surfaces so rusty that mounting may be unsafe.spare tire mounts underneath vehicle and is subject to rain, road salt and debris.

The contact owns a 2009 mitsubishi outlander. While driving 25 mph, the gears would shift abnormally without driver intent and they would often cause the vehicle to decrease in speed without depressing the brake pedal. The dealer could not duplicate the failure and advised the contact to bring the vehicle back if the failure recurred. On a separate occasion, while approaching a traffic light at speeds of 25 mph, she depressed the brakes and the vehicle rapidly accelerated. She turned the steering wheel in order to prevent driving through an intersection; however, she crashed into a light pole. She attempted to drive in reverse and the vehicle accelerated a second time. The contact shifted the vehicle into park in order to stop the unwanted acceleration. The vehicle was towed to the dealer who advised the contact to have her insurance company complete an investigation. The manufacturer was contacted and agreed to proceed with an investigation as well. The failure and current mileages were 3,000.

As i was driving my brand new car i just got 2 months ago(mitsubishi outlander 2009) on the n.j. Parkway all of a sudden i heard a crack from my sunroof and thensuddenly the glass just exploded into many pieces. Thank god! i had the cover closedthat prevented me from getting shattered glass in my face or getting into an accident with another vehicle .mind you nothing at all hit my car nor were their any cars beside me. As i kept on driving to my nearest exit i saw remaining glass pieces flying off my sunroof everywhere. When i came to a stop light i opened the cover slightly and saw there was a whole there as well as glass sitting ontop. So the next day i take the car to the dealers they tell me it's out of their handsand that i have to go through manufacturer. When the dealer returned my call 3 days later they told me mitsubishimanufacturer denied the claim to replace the sunroof glass. I then called in the manufacturer myself and put into two more complaints asking them to re-examine the emailed pictures they got from dealers and they still persisted it wasn't a defect and that it was from an outside source. I had no choice but to turn to my insurance and make a claim. I cannot understand why they would not think this is not a defect when no type of outside source ever hit my car. I could have gotten hurt if i had not had that shade covering me. It's been 2 weeks already and my sunroof is still with a brokenand defected roof.
