Component

AIR BAGS

Manufacturer
Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc.
What Happened
The airbags in your Mirage are designed to protect you in an accident. But the computer that controls them, called the SRS ECU, has a problem. It might think a bumpy road or a flat tire is a mistake and shut off the airbags.
Risk if Unfixed
If the airbags don't deploy in a crash, you could be at risk of serious injury. This is a potentially life-threatening situation.
Free Fix
Your Mitsubishi dealer will reprogram the SRS-ECU computer to fix the problem, and this repair is completely free. You'll get a notice with instructions on how to schedule the fix.

Original — What Happened
Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (MMNA) is recalling certain 2014-2018 Mirage vehicles. The internal acceleration sensor in the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Electronic Control Unit (ECU) can misinterpret vibrations such as those from poor road conditions or a flat tire to be a sensor error thereby disabling the air bags from deploying in a crash.
Original — Risk if Unfixed
Air bags that do not deploy as designed in a crash increase the risk of injury.
Original — Remedy
MMNA will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the SRS-ECU software, free of charge. The recall began on November 10, 2017. Owners may contact MMNA customer service at 1-888-648-7820. MMNA's number for this recall is SR-17-006.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS

Manufacturer
Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc.
What Happened
Your vehicle's HID headlight assembly might not have been properly secured, which can affect how your headlights shine.
Risk if Unfixed
If the headlight isn't adjusted correctly, it could reduce your visibility while driving at night or blind oncoming drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
You'll get a notification from Mitsubishi, and at no cost, the dealer will secure the headlight adjustment lock to ensure it's working properly.
Show original NHTSA language
Original — What Happened
Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (MMNA) is recalling certain model year 2017 Mirage vehicles manufactured October 28, 2015, to August 4, 2016 and equipped with High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps. The affected vehicles may have been assembled without the headlight horizontal adjustment lockout clips properly secured. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirement of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
Original — Risk if Unfixed
Without the horizontal adjustment locking clip being secured, the headlight can be adjusted to either reduce the driver's visibility or blind oncoming vehicles. Both conditions can increase the risk of a crash.
Original — Remedy
MMNA will notify owners, and dealers will secure the horizontal locking clips as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on September 3, 2016. Owners may contact MMNA customer service at 1-888-648-7820. MMNA's number for this recall is SR-16-008.
