2005 MITSUBISHI LANCER Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2005 Mitsubishi Lancer has 2 recalls, both centered on the passenger-side frontal airbag inflator, which can rupture during deployment and send metal fragments into the cabin, potentially causing serious injury. Moisture that builds up inside the inflator over time is the underlying problem, and prior repair attempts did not fully resolve it for all affected vehicles. The second recall specifically covers cars that received an interim replacement inflator under an earlier campaign, as that fix proved inadequate, along with vehicles in certain Pacific island locations that may never have been repaired at all.
