In 2019, Mitsubishi announced 3 recalls involving 4 models through the EU Rapex system. The Outlander PHEV, L200, Triton and i-Car had one recall each.

We’ve sorted all 2019 recalls according to the model into a table below.

Mitsubishi has 11 recalls less (-79%) than in the previous year. In 2019, for example, the list doesn’t include the frequently mentioned in the past Mitsubishi ASX and the classic Outlander. Yet in 2018, each of them had 8 recalls – see the overview.

Tip: Check your car by VIN

The Outlander is present in the 2019 summary only in the PHEV version (2014 Model year). Due to low sulfidation corrosion resistance of the airflow sensor and to the sulfur gas evaporation from the intake rubber hose, the internal resistor of the airflow sensor might corrode and disconnect. As a result, the vehicle will run out of battery and suddenly stop, increasing the risk of an accident.

With the L200 and Triton pickups, the rivets fixing the side step shades may corrode and fracture, while with the electric i-Car (2006 – 2007 ), the passenger-side airbag inflator may be defective.

How can you check the recalls by VIN?

Even if you don’t see your car in the table below, it doesn’t mean it was not the subject of a recall sometime in the past. The best way to verify whether a particular car is affected by some recall is to contact a Mitsubishi Authorized Service and ask for the VIN code to be checked not only for recalls but also for various Service bulletins.It will only cost you your time because such information is provided for free. Free of charge are usually also all the repairs that are related to the recall. It doesn’t matter whether you are the first, second or even third owner. It doesn’t even matter whether you have been to Mitsubishi authorized service regularly, occasionally or never before.

What is a VIN code?
