Understanding Mitsubishi Recalls & Complaints

Recall: A recall is issued when a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with federal safety standards. Manufacturers must fix recalled vehicles for free regardless of age or mileage.

Consumer Complaint: A report filed by a vehicle owner with NHTSA describing a safety concern. Complaint volume helps identify systemic issues that may lead to future recalls.

Investigation: When NHTSA receives enough complaints about a specific issue, they may open a defect investigation. This can lead to manufacturer recall campaigns.
