“I was told my entire transmission was under recall but mittsubishi of orange park in jacksonville florida and that it needed to be replaced. I am now being told that they will not fix because I am 2nd owner and because of milage. I have put about 80000 miles on k. Original owner put 43000 miles on car. I was unaware that there were any recalls on vehicle when I purchased it and would not have if had known. As well as that I received no notification from mittsubishi in my 3 years of owning vehicle to bring vehicle to repair recalls . …”

“My 2015 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport hesitates after coming to a stop and attempting to accelerate again. I'd have to push the gas again to go. A slight jerk feel. I bought it in june 2015 brand new and it's done this since august. I mostly drive highway so to feel this when ya coming into a town has me concerned. There is something definitely wrong with the transmission. It scares me sometimes. I was told my car might need to be realigned but all these cars with the same issue? Please check on this!”

“About two months ago my vehicle started acting up on and off. When ever my A/C is on and I come to a complete stop like a red light or stop signs my truck gets to jerking, idling up and majority of the time it shuts off. It will started back up after a few minutes but I will have to turn everything off like head lights, emergency flashes. Also if I am sitting in the sitting in my truck with the air running it jerks and tries to cut off, unless I turn of the AC compressor, just like if I come to a red light or stop sign, as long as I turn off the AC compressor my truck want cut off. …”

“My stepdaughter drove to work monday (8/9/16) and could not remove her key, switch only went back to acc position. I arrived and looked it over, started motor, shifted into reverse, then back to park, cut off switch and turned all way to off position this time. Sounds like issue with ignition lock cylinder. It's a 2015 with less than 10k miles. She took it to dealer who basically accused her of spilling liquid down into shifter, however once they say condition of car knew this wasn't case. Told her they will repair it a week from yesterday. …”
