Back Over Prevention recall

25V-369
June 3, 2025 · Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc.
Problem
Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (Mitsubishi) is recalling certain 2022-2024 Outlander and 2023-2025 Outlander PHEV vehicles.

A rearview image that does not display properly reduces the driver's view of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
