The front lower control arms may detach due to the front cross member corroding from salt water exposure, such as from road salt use.
A detached front control arm can result in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
What to do
Mitsubishi will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the front cross members.
Depending on the level of existing corrosion, either a sealing/anti-corrosion agent will be applied, or the front cross member will be replaced with a new one free of charge.
Owners may contact Mitsubishi customer service at (888) 648-7820.
