The catalytic converter was stolen. This is a risk the air pollution and the malfunction of other sensors that make cause the car to be unsafe to drive. The part can be easily removed and Mitsubishi refuses to add any safety or security to prevent further theft.

5/14/2021 Vehicle parked on a hill 45 minutes before it began to roll and flipped over. Car was in park and emergency break was engaged during the time of the incident. This is a hazard and could cause great bodily harm or death. I have children and they could have been in the car at the time of the malfunction. The vehicle was inspected by a police officer who confirmed the vehicle emergency break malfunctioned releasing the car down the hill. The car would jump when you breaking, but no warning lights were on before the incident

Driving down the road on cruise control set at 80 miles an hr, the car shut off then tried to restart itself. The dealer in jacksonville Florida could not determine what caused this to happen. Upon inspection it was determined that all of the exhaust valves were damaged. They are repairing this but cannot determine the cause. This is a big concern for me.

In early morning after returning from dr. Appointment while traveling West on I8 I was in between 2 tractor trailers was 3 tractor trailers being passed in slow lane all were going 75mph or so when I got to middle semi..all sudden the 2020 Mitsubishi outlander 3300miles 1.5 months old...shut down... nuthing then it jumped to right and I thought I was going under semis trailer I grasped steering wheel with right hand and tried to keep vehicle going straight in my lane but by then I was 2ft from trailer and all sudden the car started shuddering violently and wheels ( front seemed to lock up and the a super loud banging and metal and I could hear parts and pieces sounded like they were flying allover and by this time semis that watched it all happen slowed and I was able to regain control although the interior filled with smoke and was hard to see out windows I had no power it came on for split second then off igot to side of highway and stopped..took a few moments to compile myself before getting out didnt wait long maby 5 second all this happened in moments.I'm 60 and have never ever felt a blow like this.there is a problem with these vehicles.Mitsubishi came and grabbed it with in 1.5 hours took it to casa grande iv asked them tonight to dont touch the car yet. Weather they will or not I dont know I think it needs to be severely looked at by ntsb.. contact me asap before they try to cover it.. I was going straight and holding wheel with just a couple fingers with left hand.when all hell went wrong. Theres 1000 ft of marks from fluids at mile marker 95.1 in fast lane of AZ I8 West bound and probably pieces of vehicle def oil of some type for 1000 ft or hundreds anyway.. happened yesterday.
