Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Mitsubishi Motors North America is recalling certain 2013-2015 Outlander Sport vehicles that were originally sold or ever registered in 22 states in the Northeast, Midwest, and Mid-Atlantic regions. The front lower control arms may detach because the front cross member corrodes from exposure to salt water, such as from road salt use. A detached front control arm can cause a loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash.
Affected owners will be notified by MMNA, and dealers will inspect the front cross members at no charge. Depending on the extent of corrosion found, dealers will either apply a sealing and anti-corrosion agent or replace the front cross member with a new one. Owners can contact MMNA customer service at 1-888-648-7820 with questions about recall SR-21-001.
