Mitsubishi Outlander problems, by model year and system
807 complaints owners filed with NHTSA about the Mitsubishi Outlander 2016–2027, and the 2 systems the record is deep on — transmission and drivetrain (122), body and structure (104). Each system has a page across the years; 2 model-year pages go deeper still. Every figure is a linked federal record; none is a failure rate or a verdict on one car.

Complaints owners filed with NHTSA naming each system, per model year; a bold count links the year’s own page on that system. Counts scale with sales and with time on the road; nothing here is a rate, and NHTSA’s headings are coarse (“Power Train” is the transmission and the driveline).

2022 (228), 2016 (171), 2018 (93). Older years have had longer to collect them; the year pages show each year's share by system.
