Following I just sent to Mitsubishi headquarters I see recalls for transmissions for my make and model and year that states transmission fail prematurely between the miles of 114,000! and 179,000 and mine did at 137,000 it is now stating for 4 model years 2 of which are 2011&2013. What was the difference for 2012 transmission when yes indeed my year of 2012 transmission failed prematurely" it did just as your recall states and then when I put in my VIN# I am told it wasn't my skipped year that was part of the recall. Later down the road months later I recheck and my year newly became skipped for this transmission recalls. I believe there was more than one reason for your recall. Can you do the right by the car I bought from you folks and replace the faulty transmission that was put in my car? you: I have a 2012 Mitsubishi Outlander. I broke down on the interstate and had my car towed to the Mitsubishi dealer and their service dept said my transmission is shot due to a secondary code that the cvt has non operational pressure with an internal weak oil pump which caused the failure. And it would be 7,500$ just for a new transmission and an additional 800$ to put it in. I believe there was a recall skipping my year car being a 2012 Outlander. I bought it new and have always had different problems with it. One of which back in 2016 the pinion seal for the transfer case was faulty and it took me to demand checking why I was getting a leak of oil left on my clean garage floor. I bring that up as to could this be one of the causes of transmission failure" I did have it replaced under warranty which never would have happened if I didn't notice the leak myself. While I am at it my heat and ac have been barely been acceptable for keeping us warm in the cold winters here and ac not performing very well either. My car is now stranded at the burlington Mitsubishi dealer
