SERIOUS HOOD FLUTTERING ISSUE

Many similar issues with other customers. Once hit 45 MPH hood shakes violently. wife won't drive it on highway. A technical service bulletin fix was performed prior to my August purchase. Have brought car in twice for repair. Time #1 all they did was check to see that Technical Service was performed properly. Did not do anything else. Brought it in today. They called manufacturer and was told to install weather stripping. They have ordered it and I will bring it in a third time to repair. Many other owners have stated that this fix has not solved the problem. I am not confident it willl for me either. A design issue of some sort of design issue that manufacturer has been aware for months now yet no fix. Perhaps hood is not strong enough? Does it need a new hood? I am not a car engineer but I do know there is a serious problem that needs to be addressed. From what I have read it appears that that at least 3,000 cars are affected. Is it a matter of cost? Very sad to pay over $35,000 for a car to have this problem.

Love the looks and feel of the Outlander. Only issue I have is the hood blowing when on high speeds. The reason isn't only the aluminum for most cars use aluminum but the hood is one piece to include the grille. Most cars is just the hood that is one piece but Mitsubishi has attached the grille also as one so when the wind blows on high speeds it pushes the hood up. Need to reinforce the grille or make it two separate pieces.

Test Drove for Future Consideration

Decided to test drive the ES version of the Outlander to see if it's a vehicle I would consider for a future purchase. Test drove this with my son-in-law as the passenger. At 5'10", he seemed a bit cramped in the passenger seat. I felt comfortable once I got the seats, mirrors and steering wheel adjusted. Cloth seats on the ES model seem somewhat cheap. Interior on the Outlander is cavernous; can't see anything out the rear window with the head rests in the third row up. I think a lot of people who opt to purchase this vehicle will leave the third row down for more storage space. As for my driving experience, I really couldn't tell this was a CVT transmission. I'm not one to floor it to speed, but got to 45mph fairly quick. Did not drive the car over 50mph, but like someone else mentioned I did notice some hood vibration at this speed; this is something Mitsubishi will need to address ASAP. Ride was quiet and comfortable; no complaints there. With both rows of rear seats folded down, this would be an excellent "car camping" vehicle, although it would be better if seats folded completely flat in the second row. Sat in the SE model as well but didn't test drive. Like the seats better in the trim level, but don't think I'd purchase unless I could get the SE at the ES pricing. The extras between the two trims are inconsequential for me as a buyer, and as a long-time Honda buyer it's going to take some convincing to get me to part ways with my money to purchase a Mitsubishi. I need more convincing and reassurance that Mitsubishi is going to take care of me as a buyer. The 5 year/10 year warranty on this brand is reassuring...so long as you can find a service department and dealership willing to honor their end of the warranty. Too many people leave a review after a month or so of ownership. I'd be more interested in hearing from long-term Mitsubishi owners and their ownership experience.

Step up from the Outlander Sport

Back while my wife was in school (2013) we purchased an end of lease outlander sport and 120,000 miles later besides a bad TMC module that thing is still going strong. Loud road noise, bad acceleration but it pulled itself through several snowstorms. So since we had such great luck she wanted a Outlander. We've owned the Outlander for several months now and the only issue so far was a faulty backup camera, had to wait a month to get that repaired. The interior, ride, acceleration are all a huge improvement over our old sport. Lane assist works well, blind spot indicators are great (but I still double check). The interior room is perfect for 4 adults, the 3rd row imo is useless. Wish there was an option to have a full size spare tire in the trunk instead. Any of our long trips we now take the Outlander, from looks to comfort honestly it's hard to beat for $30k.

I can't get my seat to a comfortable position. The truck doesn't get up to speed fast enough for me, the enterior rubber part near my cup holder is lifting, and I'm scared to drive ont the freeway because I think my hood is going to open.
Not what I expected for my first new vehicle.

I have gone through 3 sets of tires (first set at 9k miles) in less then 50k miles due to alignment issues, since I bought the vehicle.(not covered by warranty) Rear suspension is week. With 3 rear passengers, tires rub wheel wells. On long trips the navigation system glitches, stops charging cell phones and disconnects cell phones from vehicle. Exhaust gas sensor turns check engine light on and the transmission occasionally shifts hard. I took my family on vacation and the rear differential went out of it leaving us in a rental car for a week 900 miles from home. It is going to be a money pit when the warranty is up. Just took it back to the dealership for more repairs. Driver's Assist camera went bad. USB port needs replaced and radio Amp needs replaced. I am glad I bought the extended warranty.

Bought my car in August 2021. Nothing but issues and excuses. Hood Flutter took 6 months to get replaced. Radio and navigation system failure. Waited 3 months to get repaired. Fuel pump recall. PC had to be reprogrammed. Didn’t tell me why. Then 2 weeks after getting it back. The engine malfunctioned and had to go back to the dealer again. Called Mitsubishi multiple times and never cared to help. Would love to make them buy it back. Talking to an Attorney. Car has been to the dealer 7 times in less than 9 months. Currently on hold again with Mitsubishi for more than 25 minutes. Yesterday was 20 minutes and then put on hold and transferred without being told to someone’s voicemail. Left message and no return call. Car is junk.

I been driving my brand new Outlander 2022 for almost 3 months or 3,600 miles already everithing works super smooth never feels underpower at all i just drove from Las Vegas to San Francisco and that’s correct the hood shakes after 70 miles speed not to bad but i’ll tell u this i double check a couple times if the hood loose and not was pretty good in place so after that i stop thinking about that that was a long trip around 9 hours i think can be a little scary the first 2 hours driving but at the end was a good test for the hood after that trip i love more my new Outlander and i hope mitsubishi fix that little problem in the very near future …

Broken media screen

I have a new 2022 Outlander and it’s probably the best new suv I have driven. I drive many new suvs with my work. Love the Outlander but my media screen stopped working after two weeks of buying my Outlander. And I am waiting for a new screen under warranty. It has to come from Japan. Mitsubishi can’t tell me when a new one will arrive.This broken screen could be an issue. Mine is not the only one at the dealership with this fault. Apart from this the car is very good.
