I HAVE A 2004 OUTLANDER AN I HAVE MANY THING WRONG LIKE THE HEATER KNOB BROKE OFF THE BACK WINDOWS FELL BUT MY MAJOR CONCERN IS THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON AN ILL LOSE THE THROTTLE. IN TRAFFIC THIS IS PRETTY SCARY. EVERYTHING ABOUT THE CAR IS TIP TOP. 80,000 MILES NEVER HAD ANY MAJOR PROBLEMS TILL THIS, I'VE DONE THE GAS CLICKING THING TO THE GAS CAP. ALL THE FLUIDS ARE FULL AND THE ONLY WAY I CAN GET POWER BACK IS BY TURNING THE TRUCK OFF AN ON 5 TIMES TO REST THE COMPUTER. *TR
2007
SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
ON 2/2/11 THE BRAKES FAILED WHEN MY DAUGHTER'S 2007 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER WAS MOVED ONE CAR LENGTH FORWARD IN THE DIVE WAY. THE OUTLANDER STRUCK THE REAR OF OUR 2002 FORD WINDSTAR. THERE HAVE BEEN 3 OTHER INCIDENTS WITH THIS VEHICLE FAILING TO STOP WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED, 2 OF THEM RESULTED IN ACCIDENTS. I CHECKED ON-LINE FOR BRAKE PROBLEMS FOR MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER AND FOUND A RECALL FOR A DEFECTIVE "BRAKE BOOSTER VACUUM CHECK VALVE" DATED 3/10/2009 FOR 2008 AND 2009 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDERS. THE CHECK VALVE "STICKS" CAUSING INSUFFICIENT BRAKING ASSIST RESULTING IN INCREASED RISK OF CRASH. I CHECKED THE PART NUMBERS AT THE DEALER FOR THE DEFECTIVE PART. IT IS THE SAME PART USED IN THE BRAKE SYSTEM FOR MY DAUGHTER'S 2007 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER. DEFECTIVE P/N 4630A055, REPLACEMENT P/N 4630A187. MITSUBISHI MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS PROBLEM. HOW MANY LIVES HAS IT TAKEN?? *TR
