Mitsubishi during assembly, a clamp for a CVT hose may not have been properly secured, allowing the hose to detach and leak transmission fluid.
The short version
Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. reported a problem with the automatic transmission cooling unit and lines. Here is what owners need to know.
During assembly, a clamp for a CVT hose may not have been properly secured, allowing the hose to detach and leak transmission fluid.
If enough transmission fluid leaks out, the transmission may not function properly and the vehicle may become inoperable, increasing the risk of a crash. Additionally, if leaking transmission fluid contacts an a hot surface there is an increased risk of a fire.
Mitsubishi will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the hose clamps, correcting their installation, as necessary, free of charge.
