My son only weeks ago was given his mother's 2007 Outlander as an upgrade to his former vehicle. Days ago, he found pieces of the sub frame breaking off underneath after hearing an odd noise during operation. This vehicle was purchased new in 2007 in omaha, ne. Mitsubishi's recall for sub frame corrosion does not include vehicles purchased in Nebraska as it isn't in the narrowly defined "salt belt" (although Iowa is included). If you have never been to omaha, ne during the winter you would know that the city puts as much salt and salt brine on the roads as anywhere else in the nation--winter weather, I.e. snow and ice-- in omaha is severe. Vehicles that are operated regularly in the omaha area rust prematurely and that is a fact. This vehicle is now unsafe to drive and the value is probably near zero but Mitsubishi will not cover the cost to repair. The NHTSA should extend the sub frame recall to other states where the use of road salt is extensive I.e. Nebraska, Colorado, Utah, etc...this is a travesty and should be rectified immediately before someone is severely injured or killed driving these vehicles.

On Tuesday November 8 2017 my car went out of control. Luckily I was able to safely get off to the side of the road. I had my car towed to my house thinking it was something simple my husband could fix. He looked underneath and checked everything out. He found that my front cross members have completely rotted out. I looked up recalls on my car to see if there was one and I found it. It says that the recall is incomplete. I would like to know what I can do about getting this fixed or if I am going to have to come up with the money myself.

I was driving my Outlander XLS AWD at low speed (~25 mph on a side street) when I heard a loud "pop", and lost control of the steering. I swerved into the oncoming lane, but was able to stop the car without hitting anything or anyone. I regained partial control of the steering, but the steering wheel was now nearly a half-turn off-center and did not fully control the car's direction. The problem was diagnosed as a rotted subframe, which suddenly failed. When the subframe cracked, steering/suspension components were thrown far out of alignment. Mitsubishi kindly replaced the subframe at their expense. The car had been in service for 8 years and 73,000 miles at the time of the incident.
