Filed Jan 31, 2024 · Electrical, Locks · TN

The front passenger door will not open from the inside NOR from the outside. This could be a severe safety issue in case of emergency! I tried unplugging the battery for 15 minutes and reconnecting. Still does not work. No warnings/messages. No recalls. What if this happened to other doors? What if I drove into a lake and could not escape the vehicle?

Rear liftgate lock release handle Mitsubishi part number 5810A089 (100% electrical) failed due to excessive moisture penatration in this area causing abnormal rust to the liftgate in the same location. I now notice other vehicles like mine have the same rust condition in the same area. I wash the vehicle on a regular basis and I keep it in a heated garage when I'm home.

The engine shuts off while at idle for stop lights, stop signs, and on occasion brief stops such as reversing and turning. The battery has been replaced, the alternator has been checked, & the catalytic converter was checked no problems there. However the problem persists with no warning/engine/battery light on. This is a big problem when trying to safely operate the vehicle especially if others are expecting me to go and then the car shuts off

My transmission doesn't go into gear right away and doesn't drive right in automatic. If I switch it to manual and only go up to 5th gear it shifts fine. There was a transmission recall for same year make and model as mine. Those recalls happened around 80,000 miles. I have 84,000. I was previously told I needed either a fuel tank or fuel injectors, never got it diagnosed. My gas gauge reads full all the time even when I dont have gas.

Transmisin slips , car studders during acceleration, very dangerous when trying to cross a street or entering highways. Very hard to control steering, engine makes a loud noise (as if you aceelerate and there is no power, high RPM noise)

I have a 2015 mitsubishi outlander sport I brought brand new off the lot. In the summer of 2019, the "remove key" light would come on after my key was removed from the ignition. .on 12/19/19, my car would not turn over to start and the "remove key" light stayed on. I had car towed to the dealer. Dealer said key cylinder needed to be replaced and my battery was dead. I replaced the battery and told them this was the 4th battery I have had to replace with this car. I bought new battery and dealer ordered part. The key cylinder part came in and was replaced on 01/09/20. On 01/20/20, the "remove key" light came on again and my car would not start. Towed car back to same dealer who found key cylinder was incorrectly installed and reinstalled cylinder. Today 01/22/20, the "remove key" light came back on. I'm waiting for a call back today from the same dealer to see if there's anything else that can be done. The "remove key" light prevents you from locking the doors normally, while sitting in the car, I had to lock all doors before removing key from ignition. The "remove key" light turns on when I remove key. Then after I exit the car and close the driver door, I have to use my key to lock my driver door. Otherwise I can't lock all of my car doors with the key or key fob and have to get back in the restart car and start cycle over. I asked dealer to check electrical system because I have replaced the car battery 4 times on this car already which is ridiculous and costs me money since it's not covered in my car warranty or extended warranty. I only have less then 34,000 miles on my car. Does anybody have any suggestions on remedying this issue?? Did I purchase a lemon?
