2022 Mitsubishi Outlander electrical problems

Filed Oct 15, 2026 · Electrical · TX

I am writing to escalate a severe safety violation by my dealership regarding my 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander. My infotainment screen is freezing and looping black, which leaves me without a functioning rearview safety camera. I brought the vehicle in for Safety Recall SR-25-001 (the federal safety agency Campaign 25V369), but the software update failed. The dealership is now refusing to order a replacement radio unit, claiming my car is "not covered due to mileage." Safety recalls do not have mileage limits, and this defect is explicitly covered under TSB 2554002 (the 7-year, unlimited-mileage warranty extension for 2020–2022 Outlander touchscreens). I have tried calling 3 times and went in person twice with zero resolution. I need a corporate case manager to immediately contact the dealership and authorize a full hardware replacement.

Automatic Emergency Breaking sometimes occurs while driving in rainy weather even when there are no obstructions in the front of the vehicle. This causes spinouts and exccessive wear and tear on break pads and rotors. Also, many shops and dealerships are having issues with putting 2022 year model outlanders in "maintenance mode" to be able to change rear ebs brakes. Due to this you cannot drive your vehicle and/or rish not having proper break functions. THIS IS URGENT!!!

Battery issues, car uses excessive power causing battery to fail. This has caused car to stop working completely while driving. I’ve seen several forums with the same complaints. This stalling out and loss of all electronics while driving is extremely dangerous. This has occurred multiple times since I’ve owned this vehicle.

I was backing out of my driveway and my camera froze and I ran into a truck that was parked behind my car. The form would not let me continue until I checked the air bags box. But I do not know if that pertains to this situation

My key fog plus my emergency key fog aren't connecting or linked to my car. Even after I changed the batteries. Twice. I'm not able to unlock my door or turn on my car. I was out of town and locked my keys in the car. I wasn't able to unlock it even with the my mitsubishi connect smartphone link. I called customer service and they weren't able to unlock it as well. So I had to get roadside assistant.I was stranded in the middle of nowhere. Hours away from home on a sunday and all dealerships were closed.

This vehicle has been deteriorating since around the 10-15k miles. One of the recalls should have fixed something that was happening to my heater /ac not turning on. I would turn on the vehicle and the fan wouldn't turn on. I had turn off and restart the vehicle. this has happened multiple times. The display panel will turn off randomly while driving. the main problem is my car drifts to side. really bad. I feel really unsafe in it. i had to pay outside company to see what it was and have them continue to align my tires because it gets so shaky. i can't even attach a hitch to this. the car shifts to the sides really bad, even over the smallest bumps at low mileage. someone from one of the dealerships told me there was nothing wrong with my tires (i asked them to check it when I went for a recall). i was told the vehicle feels different b/c mitsubishi motor is now made by nissan. he thought i was dumb or something. i haven't been able to get this fixed b/c idk what to do. im not hte car expert. they are. i have to constantly align the wheels but i've pretty much exhausted how many times I can get them aligned. now apparently my shocks are bad? and mitsubishi won't sell the shocks to an outside auto repair shop.

When opertaing vehicle it my parking sensor error message was given giving false reading. I was told because of this scratch i need to replace the sensor. I think its a bad design flaw n there are charging me 800 in parts and labor even though its under warranty This can cause false reading and some one can get hurt
