problem #1

Sep 022011

Outlander 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 64,000 miles
The contact owns a 2007 Mitsubishi Outlander. While the contact was driving in reverse, a loud banging noise was heard outside of the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where they informed the contact that the front passenger side coil spring fractured and during the repair procedure, the front driver side coil spring fractured unexpectedly. Both coil springs were replaced and the mechanic advised that both coil springs were defective due to a manufacturer design flaw. The manufacturer was made aware of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 64,000. Updated 10/18/11 updated 12/14/11
