This may be caused by a malfunctioning of the CVT’s hydraulic pressure control software. In the worst case scenario, with continued driving under these conditions, the CVT belt may become damaged and cause a warning light to turn on. Your local Mitsubishi dealer will reprogram the transmission control module (TCM). This repair will take from 0.3 to 0.6 hours to complete. In extreme cases, the transmission may need to be replaced. This repair will take approximately 6.8 to 8.2 hours. However, the dealer may need your vehicle for a longer period of time due to scheduling. Every effort will be made to minimize your inconvenience. Product improvements will be completed free of charge.","document":null,"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10076260","components":[{"id":"engine","name":"Engine","parent":null},{"id":"powertrain","name":"Transmission and driveline","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"MITSUBISHI","model":"OUTLANDER SPORT","year_from":2015,"year_to":2015,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2015_mitsubishi_outlander-sport"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
