The 2017 Mitsubishi i-MiEV has 2 recalls, the most serious involving the passenger-side frontal airbag inflator, which can rupture and send metal fragments into the cabin, posing a risk of serious injury or death.
The second recall concerns the brake vacuum pump, which can corrode when water gets inside it. If the pump fails, the driver loses power-assisted braking and needs significantly more distance to stop the vehicle, raising the risk of a crash.
