 My wife and I purchased a brand new 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander, 2.4L automatic, with AWD. We bought it in 2012. Has been a good car until last week. 7/5/17 at 133k miles the transmission went completely out. Stranded wife and 2 kids on I-70. Towed it to a local transmission place. Come to find out this transmission is like finding a needle in a hay stack. Owner of transmission shop told me it is year specific, model specific, sub-model specific, engine specific, and drive train specific. He actually found 1 brand new transmission in his US wide search, but to buy it, have it shipped, and installed will cost us almost $10k....the vehicle is only worth around $7k. You do the math, plus we still owe money against it lol. Called Mitsubishi Corporate to give them my opinion of the matter. Nothing...sorry about your luck. Wow! I even said well i guess me, my wife, my children, my grandchildren, my family, and friends, and co-workers, and everyone I know on social media won't ever buy another Mitsubishi again, the guy from corporate said, sorry to lose your business. lol, i was like...mic-drop jaw open. Not once did Mitsubishi Corporate offer any assistance or try to help me find a replacement transmission, or offer any options for us to persue. Pretty sad to spend $31k on a vehicle that cant last the length of the loan to pay it off...plus we are paying it off in 3 months, 9 months earlier than the note.
