What This Recall Means

Component

PARKING BRAKE

What Happened
The parking brake in your Outlander or Outlander Sport is a crucial safety feature that helps hold your vehicle in place when parked. Water can get into the rear brake system and cause the parking brake's metal parts to corrode and bind.
Risk if Unfixed
If the parking brake gets stuck, it might not work properly, and your vehicle could roll away on a slope. This could lead to a collision, especially on hills or uneven terrain.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your Mitsubishi dealer will inspect the brake system and replace any rusty or faulty parts, including the parking brake boot, lever, and caliper. These repairs are completely free, and you should schedule an appointment as soon as you get the recall notice.

Affected Vehicles
