14 July 2020

Transport Canada lists: Outlander 2014–2019

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the seat belt buckle for the right seat in the second-row could be damaged when the seats are folded down. This can cause the seat belt buckle cover to come off. If this happens, the seat belt may not latch properly.

Why it matters

A seat belt that does not latch properly could create an increased risk of injury in a crash.

What the dealer will do

Mitsubishi will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to modify the center seat belt buckle in the second seating row. A warning label will also be attached to the right seat base and additional instructions will be added to the owner's manual.

Electrical

Transport Canada recall 2018589 · manufacturer campaign SR-18-010

26 October 2018

Transport Canada lists: Outlander 2014–2015

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a wiring connector located under the driver's side carpet may become contaminated by salt water and corrode over time. This could cause a short-circuit that may cause the connector to overheat and melt and potentially lead to a fire if combustible objects are nearby. A vehicle fire could result in injury and/or damage to property.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will relocate and replace the wiring connector terminal to a higher position and replace the rear display harness with a new one.

Brakes

Transport Canada recall 2018053 · manufacturer campaign SR-18-002

26 January 2018

Transport Canada lists: Outlander 2014–2016 · RVR 2013–2016

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, insufficient rust prevention to the parking brake shaft and insufficient sealing performance of the rear brake caliper boot could allow water to penetrate inside these components causing corrosion. As a result, the parking brake shaft may become stuck causing brake dragging and/or decreased parking brake performance. Additionally, the automatic adjuster for the brake pad clearance of the rear brake caliper with the built-in parking brake may not work correctly. These conditions could lead to a vehicle rollaway, which would increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will inspect and repair the rear brakes as necessary.

Transport Canada lists: Lancer 2015–2016 · Outlander 2015–2017 · RVR 2015–2016

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, defective electrical relays may have been installed in the power distribution center. This could cause various electrical circuits to fail, potentially resulting in engine stalling, reduced engine power, or loss of engine cooling fan function potentially resulting in engine overheating. These issues could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace affected relay(s) with updated parts.
