2022 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER — Complaint #1812325
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:ADAS:DRIVER MONITORING:ALARM filed May 12, 2022
NHTSA complaint #1812325 (ODI reference 11464383) concerns a 2022 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER and was filed on May 12, 2022. The owner reports the failure occurred on October 16, 2021. The vehicle had 4,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Florida based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as electrical system:adas:driver monitoring:alarm, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER cohort independently describe similar electrical system:adas:driver monitoring:alarm failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2022 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
The contact owns a 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, with a vehicle approaching from the rear, the rear collision alert sensor and warning chime would only flash for a second at a very low sound level. The contact stated that the rear collision alert also did not chime very loudly while reversing the vehicle and approaching an obstacle. The contact stated that the warning chime was too faint and too short for alerting him. The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer where it was diagnosed and found that there was no failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 4,000.
