2014 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander has 6 recalls, the most serious involving a wiring connector under the driver's side carpet that can corrode from salt water exposure, overheat, and start a fire. The liftgate struts can corrode internally, lose pressure, and either rupture or allow the liftgate to drop without warning onto anyone standing behind the vehicle. Prior repair attempts did not fully resolve this issue, and it is covered by multiple filings. On the restraint side, the second-row right seat belt buckle can be damaged when the rear seats are folded flat, causing the buckle cover to detach and the belt to fail to latch. A related issue involves the second-row center buckle interfering with the right-side buckle when the seat backs are folded, which can also leave an occupant without a functioning belt in a crash.
