POOR EXHAUST

Bought a brand new 2014 Outlander Touring Edition, after less than 2 yrs the entire exhaust rusted out. Called both Company and 2 dealerships to rectify....they said I have to pay for it. It's their fault for cheaply used product, 2015 Models got Teflon coated exhaust so this wouldn't happen but refuse to fix the cheap one they put on my 2014 . Sounds darn fishy to me! This car has always been garage kept & has never seen snow & salted roads! POS Company that does not back their product....BEWARE!!!!!

My Outlander has cost me $4406 in air conditioning and 2320 in the motor.. 100,000 is all you will get. Service departments I have worked with have been very helpful and nice. Mitsubishi corporation sucks. I was looking to buy the PHEW NOT NOW. Thanks for educating me

I had my outlander for 6 months now... overall good SUV, however the fuel efficiency is not the best, i get around 10L per 100 km in mixed driving. When i'm on the highway it is very loud, even with windows up... The stereo is not the best either, my Bluetooth connection is a bit delayed sometimes, especially when on a videocall... I live in Canada and bought it because of harsh winters as i had a civic before and it was very challenging in deep snow. Will update after testing the outlander in winter conditions. update: one year later the outlander is still strong. fuel efficiency is about 9L per 100km. The cabin is noisy, but otherwise good. It easily survived Canadian winter even on all season tires. Nov 2023 update. The car is doing well. Had to replace the timing belt at 180k. replaced pads and rotors and that's pretty much it. The car is not a luxury car by no means, but the quality of it is impressive so far. i have 200k now and no problems

we bought this about 4k miles ago with a salvage title, spend about 10k out the door with only 9k miles on it, was a flood vehicle. they had refurbed it and it still smells and smelled like a new car. I had test driven a used one with equivalent miles to make sure all was on the up and up and when i picked this one up i fell in love. its the burnt orange color and has the bells and whistles, heated seats, gps, back up cam etc, love it!! solid feel to the car, our previous car was a 2006 mazda 5, so performance wise there wasnt much difference, yes, its a 4 banger and it is not designed to drag race, if i would like in the metroplex i would rather have a v6, but in small town texas a 4 banger is just fine... i routinely get 26-28 mpg when i decide to drive the speed limit, other wise it sits steady at 25mpg which is still better then our much smaller mazda5 did... seats are great, back is small, but thats to expected. love the push start and onboard computer stuff. UPDATE: After about 10 months of owning it i must say we still love this car, great gas mileage, good comfort, and we have the bells and whistles so back up camera and gps etc, Gps is cumbersome and we hardly ever use it, phone is easier to us, but, the screen is nice for settings, music info etc. haven't had a lick of trouble out of it. Update: about 20k miles later. Still no luck of trouble out of it. Crack in windshield. But that's hardly to blame on the car. I'm not a fan of how the engine sounds. But that's just because I like the sound of a v8. This sounds very little (which it is) Very happy with it though 65k update We decided to get rid of the car. Not because it's bad. But because I found a great deal on a nice Buick envision. The only thing on the Outlander that bothered us was perhaps the road noise. And since upgrading to the Buick and me driving a k900. It's clear just how noisy it was. However. It served us well for many years. The only thing that ever broke on us was a starter. Which was a pain to replace. But. Other then that they car was dependable.

Good Reliable Flexible Transportation

I Purchased a 2014 SE V6 used 5 years ago for my wife who did not like driving her 2015 front wheel drive Hyundai Sonata in Canadian winters. A couple of years later, she upgraded to a 2017 Infinity QX60 and at the time we had planned to sell the Outlander, but I liked the car so much that I ended up selling my 2016 GMC Sierra 4x4 and keeping it instead. The fuel economy advantage, easier parking and driving not to mention the over inflated resale of my pickup at the time was too high to ignore (think pandimic used car market boom). Its not a perfect car but I'm happy with it and plan to keep it as my daily driver. I'll start with the negatives first: As other have mentioned rather noisy as it lacks sound deadening. I believe this was address it latter models. Had starting issue in extreme cold. I have to give it a bit of gas while I press the ignition button or it will not start. This happens any time its colder than -18C/0F. Not a big deal but this means I cannot remote start it when its this cold. It’s not a sexy ride. its neither particularly nice to look at nor is it in anyway engaging to drive. It’s kind of soft and floaty with plenty of body roll in the corners. Like other Mitsubishi models it has poor resale compared to its Japanese competitors. Though this can be a bonus when purchasing used. Positives: It’s been reliable. Had around 75000k on it when I bought it, now it’s at 140000k. Other than the cold start issue is has been flawless. Decent fuel economy for what it is. Can tow a 2000lb trailer with ease. it’s rated for 3500 but I believe you need a break controller for that. Good for trips to the dump with a U-Haul trailer. Only problem is the Tow hitch reduces the already limited ground clearance in the back even more. 7 Passenger option is nice to have but I think in the 5 years of owning it I've only used it once. Great warranty. Best in the business I believe with 10-year 160000km power train. Mine is still under warranty though I’ve never had to use it. As mentioned, it's cheap to buy used. Not sure why Mitsubishi takes such a hit in resale, but it works out to your advantage if you want to buy a used one. Great AWD system. Perfect for slippery Canadian winters. Its versatile, it’s got plenty of space for carrying gear in the back. Especially with both rows folded down. The factory roof rack expands that caring capacity even more when you’re though a roof carrier up there. Anyway, that been my experience. All in all, no regrets on buying it or deciding to keep it over my pickup. Cheers.
