What 2012 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
After 53000 miles, my hydraulic unit failed, which will cost me about $2000 to fix, I'm not sure why such unit exposed to the environment with no protect shield, feels they designed it to fail in 5 years.
Tl* the contact owns a 2012 mitsubishi lancer ralliart. While driving approximately 20 to 65 MPH and changing lanes, the contact attempted to downshift from sixth to fifth gear; however, the gear shifter failed. The instrument panel displayed "transmission service, check engine light". The vehicle was driven to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the fork shifter fractured. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified. The approximate failure mileage was 30,000.
The 2012 lancer ralliart was purchased new. It is equipped with a tc-sst(twin clutch- sportronic shift transmission). As long as I can remember owning the vehicle, it constantly "slips" into gear. Whether the car is in automatic mode, or in manual mode. The sounds coming from under the hood constantly make me cringe. At time of failure, I was driving 55-60 MPH. At a steady cruise in 6th gear (automatic mode) the clutch randomly engaged, disengaged. It then slipped in and out of gear like a computer with a virus was operating the car. I then creeped to a stop followed by a "service transmission required" alert on my display. I then limped my car home, called a tow truck and the car is currently at the dealership where it is undergoing a full $13,000 transmission replacement. Car currently has 32,xxx miles.
