The defrost does not work well enough to kept window clear for driving. The anti skid electronics keeps locking out the transmission and it will not shift above 3 rd gear. Causing a drive speed limit below the required highway minimum. Have taken it in to the dealer and they charged me to fix it but the problem is recurring.

Main control unit 8637C096 failed and was replaced. Wipers failed to operate. Dealer replaced module. Very expensive. This car had a lot of wiper motor and other recalls.

The contact owns a 2007 Mitsubishi Outlander. While driving approximately 50 mph, the headlights blinked and went out without warning. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the wire in the fuse panel was faulty and needed to be replaced, as well as the fuses. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that there was no recall. The failure was remedied. The failure mileage was approximately 146,000.

Speedometer is impossible to read under certain lighting conditions- also wish to know if the air bag is being recalled. There is a clunking noise when backing up with the steering wheel turned. The dealer has replaced the hub bearings twice and it is still making this noise.

Several electrical problems, my steering wheel has intermittent electrical outages. This effects the cruise control set button, the voice connect button. My rear passenger window gets jerky with an up or down motion causing the window to come out of its position and get stuck. My front inside lights either work or don't, depending on their mood. My speakers come in and out also when they want- if its a song they like, they'll work. Also, when my car is running and in park, my rear lights on the driver side don't come on. Once it is in drive or reverse, they do... oh and my windshield cracks from under the edge where it connects to the car?

All power outlets in the car are inoperable. I have taken the car into the dealer 5-6 times to have them all reset. I am told it is from using a phone charger (and I have even tried new/different phone chargers after each incident). On the last visit, I was told this is becoming a common problem, and the easiest fix is not to use a phone charger, and to use it only as a cigarette lighter. I've never heard of a car being unable to handle a phone charger. Taking it in to the dealer over and over is becoming incredibly annoying.

Entire dashboard cluster failed: Speedometer, tach, odometer, fuel gauge, computer. Car still ran, but there was no way to determine speed or gas remaining. Dealer had to replace entire dashboard.
