BACK OVER PREVENTION:DISPLAY FUNCTION

The defect
Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (MMNA) is recalling certain 2022 Outlander vehicles. The rearview camera may not display the rearview image due to a software error. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility."
What it can cause
An inoperable rearview camera display reduces the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash.
What the dealer does
Dealers will update the rearview camera software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 1, 2022. Owners may contact MMNA customer service at 1-88-648-7820. MMNA's number for this recall is SR-22-003. This recall was replaced by NHTSA recall number 25V369.
NHTSA's note
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.

The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.

Which vehicles

A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares

At 56,080 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 89% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2022, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2022, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.

This site holds the complaint record for all 1 model year the campaign names. Their owners have filed 212 complaints with NHTSA, 73 of them before this campaign was filed. 16 of those name the back over prevention, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in June 2021, 1 year before this filing.

The vehicles on this campaign carry 6 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V369000 (back over prevention), 23V345000 (back over prevention), 22V335000 (seat belts), 22V027000 (fuel system, gasoline).

Check your own car

A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.

Filed by Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. with NHTSA on July 8, 2022 as campaign 22V470000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
