NHTSA 5-Star Safety Rating
Electrical complaints dominate what owners report for the 2017 Outlander Sport. The most common pattern involves the vehicle losing all power while driving or immediately after parking, requiring a jump-start to restore operation. Owners describe this happening repeatedly even after having the battery, alternator, and starter checked and cleared by mechanics, pointing to something intermittent in the electrical system rather than a straightforward component failure. The CVT draws the next cluster of complaints, with owners describing loss of acceleration, delayed throttle response, and jerking under load, several report needing a full transmission replacement. Airbag complaints appear in a smaller but notable group, with some owners reporting that airbags did not deploy during collisions they describe as significant.
