Mitsubishi CVT transmissions

Asked by GuruDZDNTQ Nov 14, 2023 at 10:58 AM about the 2012 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport SE

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

We owned a 2012 Outlander, which we enjoyed thoroughly. The CVT
transmission failed after 112,000 miles, making the vehicle worthless ($8k
repair estimates). Has Mitsubishi improved this particular transmission?

Not really, they have tried software stuff but the transmission is inherently junk. You were lucky you got that many miles out of it. CVT’s are still on the steer clear list.
