Buying a used 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander? Check these 2 recalls first
Both open recalls on the 2023 Outlander are backup-camera issues — one where the image may not appear, another where it can freeze. Neither carries a stop-driving or park-outside warning, and both are medium severity. NHTSA has 47 owner complaints on file, which are unverified reports, involving 3 crashes and 3 injuries with no fires. Electrical system leads at 11, followed by fuel/propulsion (8), engine (7) and unspecified issues. The recall record here is narrow and camera-focused rather than spread across major systems.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Run the VIN for open recalls and ask for repair orders showing both backup-camera remedies were performed.
- Shift into reverse several times on the test drive and confirm the image appears promptly and never freezes.
- Ask the seller about any electrical, engine or fuel-system faults or warning lights, the top owner-complaint areas.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Mitsubishi dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
