What is wrong
Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (MMNA) is recalling certain 2019-2022 Outlander Sport vehicles equipped with continuously variable transmissions and mechanical key ignition systems. A software error in the transmission control unit (CVT-ECU) may incorrectly reduce the transmission gear ratio at high speeds, which can result in an engine stall.
What can happen
An engine stall can increase the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Dealers will update the CVT-ECU software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 24, 2022. Owners may contact MMNA customer service at 1-888-648-7820. MMNA's number for this recall is SR-22-004.

Bulletins for the same vehicles and component
| TSB-20-23-001REV | 2020-07-20. Service bulletin. This Technical Service Bulletin supersedes TSB-20-23-001, issued April, 2020, to update the Control Valve part number and MY 2020-2018 Outlander Sports with 2.4L engines. |
|---|---|
| TSB-20-23-001 | 2020-05-26. Service bulletin. Certain vehicles with F1CJC/W1CJC (CVT-8) transmissions may exhibit a shudder or surge condition possibly caused by poor reaction of the hydraulic pressure circuit. With continued driving under these conditions, the CVT belt may slip repeatedly when accelerating, and abrasion powder may enter the hydraulic pressure circuit, causing a warning light to turn on. This TSB instructs dealers to diagnose and test drive vehicles exhibiting this condition. *This TSB may also apply to later model years with F1CJC/W1CJC (CVT-8) transmissions. |
