What happened

Mitsubishi is recalling certain 2009-2011 Lancer, Lancer Sportback, Lancer Evolution, Outlander, and Outlander Sport vehicles because the blower motor may fail. This failure can reduce the performance of the windshield defroster, which diminishes the driver's visibility and increases the risk of a crash. The vehicles affected were manufactured between February 2009 and June 2011.

Mitsubishi will notify owners and dealers will replace the faulty blower motor at no cost. The recall began on June 15, 2015. Owners should contact Mitsubishi customer service at 1-888-648-7820 to arrange service, and can reference recall number SR-15-003.
