2016 Mitsubishi Outlander

WHILE DRIVING, WHEN YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF YOUR ACCELERATOR, THE TRANSMISSION MAKES A ROARING NOISE TRYING TO SLOW DOWN THE CAR. TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE FOR THEM TO LOOK AT IT. THEY SAID THAT ITS THE TRANSMISSION AND THEY HAVE SEEN ALOT OF OUTLANDERS WITH MY YEAR COMING IN HAVING TO GET THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION REPLACED. THEY ARE SURPRISED THAT THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL ON THE ISSUE SINCE ITS HAPPENED SO FREQUENT WITH THE 2016 OUTLANDERS

ON A CONSTANT BASIS WHEN I'M DRIVING MY VEHICLE I HAVE TO CONTINUOUSLY RELEASE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS PEDAL FOR IT TO ATTEMPT TO SHIFT INTO THE NEXT GEAR OTHERWISE IT CONTINUES TO REV UP THE RPMS HIGHER AND HIGHER ON IT'S OWN AND IT'S AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. WHEN DRIVING UP HILL ON THE HIGHWAY I LITERALLY HAVE TO PUNCH THE GAS PEDAL OR HAVE IT FULLY DEPRESSED DOWN TO THE FLOOR TO GET THE VEHICLE TO HAVE ANY ACCELERATION TO MAKE IT UP THE HILL AND IT STILL LOOSES ANY POWER MOMENTUM YOU GIVE IT. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TWICE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A.C. ISSUES FIRST THE SYSTEM BECAME CLOGGED AND STARTED TO LEAK INSIDE MY VEHICLE. NOW IT'S BLOWING HOT AIR ON THE MAX COLD SETTING. I HAVE REPETITIVELY TAKEN MY VEHICLE IN AFTER NOW 4 RECALLS FOR TOTALLY DIFFERENT ISSUES AND HAVE TOLD THEM OF MY ISSUES AND KEEP GETTING DISMISSED AND TOLD THAT IT'S NOTHING. I REACH OUT TO MITSUBISHI AND GET TOLD SOMEONE WILL CONTACT ME AND GET NO RESPONSE. I HONESTLY HAVE EXPERIENCED MORE BUT CAN'T THINK OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD OTHER THAN I ALSO HAD TO REPLACE MY WINDSHIELD WITHIN THE FIRST YEAR OF OWNING IT FROM A SMALL CHIP. I HONESTLY DO NOT FEEL SAFE BEHIND THE WHEEL OF MY VEHICLE ESPECIALLY BEING AN EMPLOYEE WORKING AT A LEVEL 1 TRAUMA HOSPITAL AND HAVE TO RESPOND EFFICIENTLY AT TIMES BUT DO T FEEL THAT I CAN WITHOUT FEELING LIKE I AM PUTTING BOTH MYSELF AND OTHER DRIVERS AROUND ME AT RISK WHEN MY CAR SOMETIMES FEELS LIKE IT WON'T DO WHAT IT SHOULD. BEING I BOUGHT THIS CAR OFF THE DEALERSHIP LOT BRAND NEW FOR NEARLY $30K, I DON'T FEEL MITSUBISHI HAS OWNED UP MAKING THIS CAR READY FOR THE ROAD.
