The hood flutters or bounces at any speed over 30. Gets significantly worse the faster you go making you feel unsafe like the hood will fly open. Even on bumps the hood shakes. There are no recalls and most dealerships are offering temporary fixes. Mitsubishi is aware of the problem but not doing anything about it. I've done research and this is a huge issue with this model. No owner has been given a good "fix."

Since having purchased the vehicle in October 2021, the hood flutters/vibrates whenever the vehicle is being driven at speeds of 60MPH or more. The faster the vehicle drives, the more violently the hood flutters/vibrates. We have taken it to the dealer for repair, and they informed us that Mitsubishi is aware of the issue but they have yet to issue repair or do a recall. After speaking with Mitsubishi Corporate in the US, they said they are not planning to do a recall or offer a timeframe for a repair, but fully admitted to being aware of the issue, After doing research online, I found that many if not most of the 2022 Outlanders have this very serious issue. Not only is it scary driving with the hood vibrating, but it will cause unnecessary wear and tear on the vehicle and possibly cause a catastrophic incident. The vehicle is readily available for inspection. We want Mitsubishi to do the right thing and recall the vehicle and provide a permeant fix ASAP.

The hood flutters violently while driving. The manufacturer has already issued a TSB to try to fix the issue but it has not. There are hundreds if not thousands of complaints online about this issue. I-??m afraid that the hood may fly up while driving.

When driving at freeway speeds in windy condition, the hood shakes and flexes in a frightening manner, suggesting that the hood could be flying open at any moment. This is visible and upsetting from a driver or passenger viewpoint. My first impression was that the hood was made of too thin metal and that certain wind dynamics at highway speeds causes this shocking flexing and shaking. This was a brand new vehicle with under 100 miles on it. The next day I returned the vehicle to the dealer and they returned my down payment check that I had given then two days earlier, thus cancelling the deal. It seems they had heard of this issue before.

The vehicles hood shakes and flutters when traveling above approximately 45mph and gets worse the faster vehicle travels. I fear this is causing excess wear on the hood latch and the hood will eventually fly up causing driver to be unable to see. Been like this since new. Has been back go dealership twice with no fix.

Good morning. Mitsubishi attempted fix at my hood flutter recall in July 2021 and problem still active. Hood bounces and flutters and is very distracting. There is no permanent fix at this time. Also, the forward collision included in the MiPilot is not active. When looking at the manual, the image of a -??car-?? appears when system is engaged. For my vehicle, this is not showing as active. Again, no fix or remedy from dealer and Mitsubishi tech support. Very unsettling as this would really assist with distracted driving while the hood is bouncing around.

Car engine hood shakes violently at speeds higher than 45 miles per hour. The higher the speend the more it shakes. My wife is afraid to drive it. Many other owners are complaining of same issue and have taken Outlander in for service without favororable results. Issue still persists. I will take my Outlander for service as soon as I am able.

At higher highway speeds the hood gets air under it, causing the hood to -??flutter-?? or -??bounce-??. At higher speeds it looks like the hood could almost fly up. I feel very unsafe driving with this, i-??ve been told it can-??t make my hood fly up, but i worry about it everytime i drive.

My 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander hood vibrates during drives. The vibration starts when the car is moving around 35 - 40 mph or more. I confirmed that it was properly closed, but it concerns me because this repetitive movement may loosen the hood locking system during any future drive. This problem may cause a potentially fatal accident.

I have taken my SUV for to updates in regaurds to repairing the hood that shakes and bounces. It moves up and down when going down the road fast or slow. Its not only the wind that causes this it is also bumps in the road. It oftem seams the hood will fly up and can be pretty scarry. I fewel something needs to be done to help support the hood and make it samefer. If it keeps moving metal fatigue could occure and cause a safety issue that could lead to a death.
