AI Reliability Analysis
EditorialMitsubishi has average NHTSA complaint rates with CVT transmission issues being the primary complaint driver, particularly in the Outlander Sport and Mirage. The Outlander PHEV plug-in hybrid has been more reliable. The brand's limited dealer network can make out-of-warranty repairs more expensive.
The Eclipse Cross and Outlander from 2022+ show improvement over earlier models. Verify CVT warranty coverage (extended to 100K miles on many models). Consider the Outlander PHEV for best reliability and efficiency.
