I was driving home from work when the car started to violently shudder. I took my foot off the accelerator and it stopped, only to happen again when I resumed pressing the gas. This also causes the car to suddenly slow down somewhat dramatically. The tachometer also "bounces". I purchased this vehicle used and drove it for 6 or 7 months with no issues before this happened. I took I to a local mechanic who immediately identified it as the transmission. A check engine light came on and intermittently goes out and back on. This happened after the shuddering started. The problem is easily repeated just by simply driving the car. It has not been inspected by anyone other than the mechanic I took it to.

Delay in the accelerating pedal and hesitation, transmission will chande gear abnormal.Ac went out at same time.

While traveling on the highway, as I accelerated, my vehicle began to shutter as if it was about to stall. Then the D on the display panel began flashing and a message concerning the transmission was displayed. As I increased my speed the more the car shuttered. I researched and found that this has been an issue with this make and model of this vehicle. After calling a Mitsubishi dealership, I was informed that my vehicle has had this problem fixed. They require a couple hundred dollars to look at it but it sounds like they have already made up their mind that it is not under recall.

I bought the vehicle in November 2022 with 88000 Miles. I started to feel a noise that seemed to be the transmission about 4 days later, a tap when doing the 2nd gear and then it felt irregular the following gears. Stopping and going felt like he was forcing himself to make 2nd gear. Due to this problem, it takes a long time to cross an intersection which could cause an accident. I took it to a mechanical workshop where they put the scanner on it and it showed several errors, when the Mechanic tested the vehicle it was when the Engine indicator light came on,

I think the problem it’s on the transmission as the car is presenting hesitation and shuddering when accelerating, also it’s presenting rev fluctuations when driving at a constant speed, fortunately my safety and the safety of others is good until now. Yes the problem has being confirmed, no the vehicle has not being inspected by by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, there wasn’t any indication or warnings prior to the failure.

The transmission is not working properly. It has a hesitation and causes car to lunge forward.

My wife and I were at the beach when the truck started jerking really bad. I knew from the motion that transmission was locking up. We stayed 2 nights until we tried to make it home and it would slip in and out of gear. Transmission Maintenance light came on and once we made a complete stop. It acted as it didn’t want to move then would take off like a rocket. I’ve seen several models have recall on this issue but not my VIN which I find very strange.

I have a 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport that was purchased in 2020 with 42 thousand miles on it. While I was on the highway I started experiencing acceleration hesitation and my car gave a message saying transmission service needed. I took my car to several mechanics that said my transmission is slipping and getting ready to die. They mentioned CVT issue. I contacted Mitsubishi but they told me according to my VIN my car is not under a recall. However, my mechanics informed me along with several reports that 2015-2016 outlander sports and certain model Lancers were recalled due to acceleration hesitation. When I asked what that meant in plain English I was told my transmission is bad and that’s what causes acceleration hesitation. Then Mitsubishi told me that my car would have to have been manufactured within a certain year in order for the recall to be valid for my vehicle. I was never informed of a recall and didn’t know something was wrong until I was in the middle of the highway with my son in the car. We could have been killed. The transmission in these vehicles are no good and I don’t care about a VIN my vehicle is the year make and model that was recalled. A manufacturing issue is not my issue. I want my vehicle properly repaired. It’s practically new. I have also reached out to my attorney.

While driving on the highway the vehicle started jumping RPM and jerking violently. The RPM would rise and then dramatically fall with a clunking sound coming from CVT transmission. Problem persisted at slower speed with slightly less severity. After tech review, it was determined CVT belt was slipping and transmission prematurely failed at 42k miles. Being the second owner, vehicle is out of warranty and I was quoted $8k for a new CVT.

My 2016 outlander started having a burning plastic smell. I made a trip back home and thankfully made it safely because I started having issues with accelerating. I would push the gas gently and barely go but my car would Rev up to 4-5 rpms. I could put my foot to the floor and it wouldn't speed up at all. After checking the transmission fluid and seeing it was on the lower side we added a little more in hopes it would help but it did not. I was low on gas after my trip so I drove to the closet store so it wouldn't be sitting with no gas and At this point the transmission service required warning came up. It started revving up even worse with the slightest touch of the gas and I could barley get it to back out of a spot or take off from a stop sign. We were trying to get it to a neutral location that we knew it would be safe and while drinking it there it started jumping and the check engine light came on. I had it towed to a repair shop who verified it is a transmission issue but said they recommend a dealer fix only. My car is a 2016, had 1 previous owner and only has 58347 miles on it.

Engine rev'd high and low without affecting speed of vehicle. Vehicle lost acceleration and came to a stop. Restarting the vehicle allowed some movement but the problem persisted. Dealership checking the vehicle said the transmission needed to be replaced at a cost of $9,700.

Failure to accelerate when engaging gas pedal. Exact same issue that the 2016 mitsubishi sport recalls are having with thr cvt transmissions. The 2016 Outlander that we have also has a cvt transmission and is experiencing the same delay issues as previous cvt transmission recalls. We were almost in a wreck, with our children in the vehicle after making a turn onto a busy highway and then were unable to accelerate to get out of the way. The vehicle thinks the transmission is in neutral while it is in drive.
