2007 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER Recalls (10)

Campaign:
08V094000 on 02/27/2008
Component:
Seats
Manufactured:
09/07/2006 - 01/27/2008
Affected:
5,400
Defect:
Mitsubishi is recalling 5,400 my 2007-2008 outlander passenger vehicles originally sold in or currently registered in the states of connecticut, delaware, illinois, indiana, iowa, kentucky, maine, maryland, massachusetts, michigan, minnesota, missouri, new hampshire, new jersey, new york, ohio, pennsylvania, rhode island, vermont, virginia, west virginia, wisconsin, and the district of columbia. for vehicles without an electric power seat, the floor harness connector for the power seat is placed directly on the floorboard underneath the carpeting (vehicles with power seats already have the harness elevated). if a vehicle occupant enters the vehicle with a sufficient amount of snow on their feet containing road salt, it is possible for the melted snow mixture to soak the carpet and allow the salt-water solution to come into contact with the unused power seat harness connector.
Consequence:
The connector terminal may corrode and allow current to flow, resulting in the gradual heating and melting of the connector and may result in a fire.
Correction:
Dealers will relocate the floor harness from beneath both the passenger and driver seats to above the carpet and away from the bottom of the floorboard to prevent contact with any future melt solution. the recall began on april 7, 2008. owners may contact mitsubishi at 1-800-222-0037.

Customers may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to http://www.safercar.gov.

Defect:
Mitsubishi is recalling 21,493 my 2007-2008 outlander vehicles equipped with led type stop lamps and distributed in the united states and puerto rico. the brake lamp switch may malfunction and cause the stop lamps to not illuminate during brake application.

(mitsubishi) is recalling certain model year 2013 outlander vehicles equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission. additionally, mitusbishi is recalling certain 2007-2012 outlander vehicles that received replacement 6-speed automatic transmissions during servicing. the transmissions in these vehicles have insufficient clearance between the power steering pressure tube and the converter housing of the automatic transmission. as a result of the contact, the power steering pressure tube may develop a hole and leak power steering fluid.

Defect:
Mitsubishi motors north america, inc. (mitsubishi) is recalling certain model year 2007 and 2009 outlander vehicles. during servicing, the affected vehicles were repaired with replacement transfer case assemblies whose oil seal may come out of position.
