Mitsubishi bulletin TSB-24-17-001

What it saysService Manual Revision - This Technical Service Bulletin provides the addition of the Steering Wheel Switch Light Lens disassembly and assembly procedure in the applicable Service Manual sections. NHTSA’s full summary ↓

Mitsubishi filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Mar 29, 2024, received Apr 4, 2024, about the equipment. It names 5 model years (2018–2022). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

Car suddenly freezes and no system works. Won’t start, shift, whole electric system gone. Happened several times. Very dangerous and dealer has no idea what’s wrong. Can’t get anyone at Mitsubishi to respond. Only had car 6 months and it has $36,000 miles

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Mitsubishi TSB-24-17-001 a recall?

No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.

Is the TSB-24-17-001 repair free?

Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way. Every Mitsubishi warranty extension on file lists the ones Mitsubishi has filed.

Which vehicles does TSB-24-17-001 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 5 model years: 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander, 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander, 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander, 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander, 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
