THE RADIO WILL RANDOMLY COMPLETELY LOSE ALL POWER DURING COLD WEATHER WHILE DRIVING. IT SHUTS DOWN AFTER ABOUT TEN MINUTES OF DRIVING AND STAYS OFF FOR ABOUT THREE TO FIVE MINUTES BEFORE POWERING BACK UP. IT ONLY HAPPENS IN COLD WEATHER AND AFTER THE FIRST FEW MINUTES. SINCE MY CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER A FEW MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM AT THAT TIME AND THAT I SHOULD LEAVE MY CAR WITH THEM. THEY SAID THEY WOULD NOT TAKE IT APART TO TRY AND FIND THE PROBLEM BECAUSE IT WOULD TAKE TOO MUCH TIME AND COST TOO MUCH MONEY FOR THEM. SINCE IT OCCURS RANDOMLY, AND I NEEDED MY CAR FOR WORK, I COULD NOT LEAVE IT IN HOPE OF IT RANDOMLY HAPPENING FOR THEM. NOW THAT ITS COLD AGAIN, IT STARTED AGAIN. IT'S A NEW CAR SO THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING.
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.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: Air bags that do not deploy as designed in a crash increase the risk of injury.
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.
Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (MMNA) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Mitsubishi Mirage vehicles manufactured July 27, 2013, to September 2, 2015. If the driver enters an affected vehicle with their feet covered water and salt, it may soak through the carpet and cause corrosion to a wiring connector located in a junction box behind a kick panel to the left of the driver's footrest.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: In the event of a crash, corrosion of the connector could delay deployment of the frontal air bags, increasing the risk of injury to the driver and the front seat passenger.
Remedy: MMNA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the affected connectors, replacing any found to be corroded. A waterproof sheet will be installed over the connectors to prevent future corrosion. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in February 2016. Owners may contact MMNA customer service at 1-888-648-7820. MMNA's number for this recall is SR-16-001.

Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (Mitsubishi) is recalling certain model year 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage vehicles manufactured July 27, 2013, to November 20, 2013, and 2012 Mitsubishi i-MiEV vehicles manufactured October 28, 2011, to September 7, 2012. Due to an increased resistance in the impact sensor for the air bag system, in the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the frontal, side and/or curtain air bags when the SRS warning is illuminated, the frontal air bag may have a delayed deployment and/or the side and curtian air bag may not deploy at all.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: In the event of a crash, an air bag that does not deploy or deploys late, increases the risk of occupant injury.
Remedy: Mitsubishi will notify owners, and dealers will replace the affected impact sensors, free of charge. The recall began on November 5, 2015. Owners may contact Mitsubishi customer service at 1-888-648-7820. Mitsubishi's number for this recall is SR-15-011.
