2015 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport Fuel system Problems

“Several instances where acceleration failed momentarily were followed by a recall. Several weeks after the issue was 'corrected , acceleration failed to generate a speed past 30 MPH for a few moments, then 25 MPH, and I barely managed to get back at home at no more than 20 MPH. Every time I stepped on the gas, it caused acceleration to decrease until I stopped and coasted at 20.”

“2015 Mitsubishi started sputterring while waiting for red light and hesitates when accelerating. Check engine came on. Looks like there are other similar complaints, but when I looked up the recall my vehicle is not included.”

“The car stutters and jerks to accelerate when gas is pressed from a stopped position at traffic light. This has happened several times, called the dealer and they haven't heard of the issue. Have not had time to stop in. Seems like this is an ongoing problem, in fact, I believe one review from motor trend witnessed a similar issue additionally, the CVT would stutter or hesitate when gently modulating the gas pedal when heavy freeway traffic required constant adjustment, a characteristic not noted during our tenure in the 2011 model on the same road trip or at any other times. …”

“Traveling on freeway began experiencing hesitation in engine. Thought possible poor gas. Added 91 octane. Got back on road hesitation got worse. Engine light saying transmission service required. 20 miles from nearest town transmission stops and I am stranded on side of interstate 10”

“When trying to pull away from stop vehicle just stops engine still running it just wont go. Vehicle was taken in for the computer flash seemed to help but then started doing it again. This is dangerous can easily be rearended. It has happened when turning or straight but always after stopping then pulling away from stop. Bought vehicle with just over 2000 miles we suspect the prior owner had same problem.”
