Airbags no longer will deploy according to collision repair shop. Had some hail damage repairs after thatthe dashboard light for airbags came on throughout the year and then stayed on permanently.i was driving on a street and the airbag light just came on and from that point has not went off.

The vehicle stops randomly while driving- usually while going 60 mph and reducing the speed in the express way, it just automatically turns off. It has already happened to me twice.

Transmission is failing to change gears. The car won't shift through 3rd gear. We were on the interstate going65 when it happened.

Following i just sent to mitsubishi headquarters i see recalls for transmissions for my make and model and year that states transmission fail prematurely between the miles of 114,000! and 179,000 and mine did at 137,000 it is now stating for 4 model years 2 of which are 2011&2013. What was the difference for 2012 transmission when yes indeed my year of 2012 transmission failed prematurely? it did just as your recall states and then when i put in my vin# i am told it wasn't my skipped year that was part of the recall. Later down the road months later i recheck and my year newly became skipped for this transmission recalls. I believe there was more than one reason for your recall.can you do the right by the car i bought from you folks and replace the faulty transmission that was put in my car? you: i have a 2012 mitsubishi outlander. I broke down on the interstate and had my car towed to the mitsubishi dealer and their service dept said my transmission is shot due to a secondary code that the cvt has non operational pressure with an internal weak oil pump which caused the failure. And it would be 7,500$ just for a new transmission and an additional 800$ to put it in.i believe there was a recall skipping my year car being a 2012 outlander. I bought it new and have always had different problems with it. One of which back in 2016 the pinion seal for the transfer case was faulty and it took me to demand checking why i was getting a leak of oil left on my clean garage floor. I bring that up as to could this be one of the causes of transmission failure? i did have it replaced under warranty which never would have happened if i didn't notice the leak myself. While i am at it my heat and ac have been barely been acceptable for keeping us warm in the cold winters here and ac not performing very well either. My car is now stranded at the burlington mitsubishi dealer

The transmission does not change all the time took it to a transmission shop and said they was a recall in 2014,15 for this problem. And was see if any other 2012 had the samd problem.

The vehicle stops randomly while driving- usually while going 60 mph and reducing the speed in the express way, it just automatically turns off. It has already happened to me twice.

While driving the transmission causes the powertrain to stop working making the car impossible to remain in motion. This will happen while driving in traffic. The transmission will howl and squeal right before it no longer works. Was told by mitsubishi that the cvt transmission was not built for long distance driving, towing(even though it is offered with a towing package), mountainous driving or uphill acceleration. This is unsafe as it causes a sudden stop in high speed traffic with a cause for serious injury if another vehicle were to hit the stalled vehicle

The rear brakes get so hot that when they get snow or rainthey smoke and smellreal bad that i have to be careful not to open doors. It is real bad once you stop. I cant do my transportation job because of it. The dealer tells it is normal.

The contact owns a 2012 mitsubishi outlander. While driving various speeds, the rear of the vehicle would wobble. The vehicle was taken to daytona mitsubishi (located at 510 n nova rd, daytona beach, fl 32114), but was not diagnosed or repaired. In addition, the vehicle was taken to the same dealer a few years ago for the same failure. The dealer diagnosed that a flat spot from the tire caused the failure. The dealer performed an alignment, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified and did not assist. The approximate failure mileage was 86,000.

One day i noticed a screw missing from the piece that holds the visor to the roof and it won't be long until the visor falls all together.

While in motion, an anchoring screw hold the passenger side visor to the roof panel fell out into my lap.as the passenger at the tie, i checked the visor, noticing the screw fell from above and noticed the second of the two anchoring screws was near falling out, also.previously, a similar screw had been found on the driver's side floor area, but the location it came from was not apparent as the visor mount from which it fell was hidden by the position of the driver side visor.checking the driver side visor, i noticed the second and last anchor screw was also very loose and mostly out of the tightening position it should have been in.i envision that in a circumstance where an average driver did not notice the anchor screws were loose from the visor mount overhead, the visor could fall onto the steering wheel of the vehicle possibly causing inability to steer the vehicle or surprising the drive enough to cause loss of control of the vehicle.it appears the torque on the screws was incorrect to keep them secured, or the thread of the screw is not correct to hold them tight into the visor mounts, allowing vibrations during normal driving use to allow the screws to become loose and eventually fall out of the visor mount bracket altogether.i reseated the screws using a silicone based gasket sealer to prevent the screws from vibrating out of the bracket mounts.however, i can envision the situation to be one that could contribute to a crash.
