2010 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander has 5 recalls, the most serious involving the front lower control arm, which can detach and cause a sudden loss of steering and vehicle control, and a drive belt tensioner that can crack and shed the accessory belt, stalling the engine. On the steering side, certain vehicles that received a replacement 6-speed automatic transmission during prior service may have a power steering fluid leak that reduces steering assistance, making the vehicle harder to control. Two recalls address wiper system reliability: water that seeps between the hood and windshield can corrode the wiper motor from the inside until it fails, and the same moisture can corrode the wiper linkage ball joint until the linkage separates and the wipers stop moving entirely. Both conditions reduce visibility during rain.
