Mitsubishi Warranty Options

Mitsubishi’s new car warranty includes a 5-year/60,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty, a 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty, and 5-year unlimited roadside assistance. Although these warranties are substantial, they don’t last forever. Once expired, you can continue protecting your Mitsubishi with a vehicle service contract from an independent provider like Endurance Warranty.

Mitsubishi Reliability

RepairPal ranks Mitsubishi 6th out of 32 car brands and gives it an above-average reliability rating of 4 out of 5. Additionally, Mitsubishi outperformed Toyota, Hyundai, and Nissan in terms of reliability, earning 6th place in J.D. Power’s 2023 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study.

  According to RepairPal, the older Mitsubishi Galant has excellent reliability, earning a 4.5 out of 5.0 score, which ranks it second among 24 midsize cars. The Mirage received matching ratings and placed 7th out of 21 in the subcompact car category. Both the Outlander Sport and Outlander received 4.0s or “above average” reliability scores and have claimed the 7th and 8th spots out of 26 for compact cars.

  Still, when it comes to reliability, there are several important factors to keep in mind. First, the model year can play a significant role, as well as the level of care the vehicle receives. It’s also critical to address any recalls that arise (i.e., those concerning the Outlander PHEV) and determine if your Mitsubishi model has been involved in a class-action lawsuit, such as the one concerning faulty airbag control units. Be sure to check if the model you’re interested in has a proven track record of reliability.
