Thought it would be forever, nope, 4 years.

Purchased brand new. Right after hitting 35k miles (about 2.5 years in), backup camera goes out. Talk to service at dealer, if it was just a fuse, it would still be covered. I'd have to pay an $89 diagnostic fee (wasn't a top priority as the backup sensors still worked). After hitting 40/45k miles, my radio speakers just cut out completely on a road trip. Next day they worked. Next week, the Bluetooth kept randomly going into call mode, it wasn't calling anyone, I wasn't calling anyone. I restarted the car several times at stop lights, same situation happened. Decided to take it to service for diagnostics. Whomp, whomp, it was the ENTIRE RADIO SYSTEM. It would cost about $1200 with labor to replace the radio (& that's without NAV). Figured I'd deal with it until it truly went kaput. Hit 55k miles & the compressor for A/C started making Darth Vader noises & A/C went out on, of course, a hot day, plus, I had a guest riding with me all day to my accounts for work (A/C warranty, amongst most others, runs out at 60k). I made an appointment ASAP! Compressor was leaking so I got a new one that day (they had them on hand as they said they have been having issues with them). I have been juggling with the idea of trading in before it depreciates in value even more from me packing miles on it for work (avg. 5k every 2 months) or buying an extended warranty for around $1,500 which would allow me to get a new radio (hopefully the Bluetooth would be smoother on that one) & I would have a backup camera again after a year without. 1st owner, would hit 4 years in May of 2018 if I keep it that long. I'm worried I'll be 2 hours away from home & the Keyless Push to Start won't work next. Great PRO is that Mitsubishi is the only company with a 100k mile Powertrain Warranty. Also, I get amazing gas mileage for a 3rd row SUV. That's where I struggle with my decision.

At present I have 180000 miles on my outlander and counting. I have kept up on maintenence. The outlander has never let me down. Goes good in snow. Third row seat is a joke.

Best Car I've ever bought! Still...after 3 yrs

I love my OUTLANDER! It's comfortable to ride and drive. It hasn't got the 'most' power but has all I need. The 10/100,000 mile warranty was more than I expected but haven't had to use it. It's only needed routine maintenance in 2 years, oil changes, tire rotations, that's it! Mine also has a no-rust warranty which is almost unheard of and a great perk for any vehicle being drive in Maine. Super reliable. The back seats are all that comfortable but they're not used much anyway. No kids. Mileage is average. The ground clearance is actually what attracted me to this vehicle. It's more than my previous SUV that kept getting stuck in my driveway when there was a significant snow fall. I haven't gotten stuck with my Outlander. Heated seats....just awesome! There are so many perks to this car, they far outweigh any possible negatives, not that I can think of any. Truly the best car I've ever had in my 30 years of driving!

I will not recommend the 2014 Outlander. I bought mine new and it has nothing been a headache. I've had a leaky head gasket, 3 serpentine belts (due to squealing), alternator, pulleys, all new exhaust tubing, rear light socket, and a blown radiator. In my experience, this car is well below average reliability. The vehicle is also underpowered. Mine has the 2.4L and if you have 3 adults, you might want to throw out some weight out the window. It is such a dog with 3 adults. In addition the 3rd row is a joke. Picture someone sitting on a paint can and bent over to avoid hitting your head on the roof.

Nothing but trouble

We’ve had this outlander for 4 years now (bought used) and have nothing but trouble. 1st (days after purchase) we had a leak whenever it would rain around the antenna on the top of the vehicle. Then our backup camera died. We’ve had tire pressure issues from the get go due to faulty sensors. Now the “check electrical systems” light keeps coming on and NO ONE has any idea what’s wrong with it. Mitsubishi has had it for 6 weeks and keeps charging us for different fixes “hoping” something works. I’d love to trade it in but am afraid I still owe too much. Plus in this day and age nothing out there to buy!!!
