Mitsubishi QE Pajero Sport with towbar: flange head bolts could loosen
In March 2016, a recall was issued for Mitsubishi QE Pajero Sport vehicles that were fitted with a genuine Mitsubishi towbar because the fitted flange head bolts may loosen in use. If the bolts became loose, the towbar could detach from the vehicle, creating a safety hazard (PRA 2016/15281).
2016 model year Mitsubishi QE Pajero Sport: insufficient anti-corrosion coating
In December 2016, a recall was issued for 2016 model year Mitsubishi QE Pajero Sport vehicles. In these vehicles, insufficient anti-corrosion coating was applied to the end cap on the outer tube of the tailgate springs, and this could result in corrosion. This corrosion could cause the end cap to break, hitting the operator and/or the tailgate to fall down suddenly – these events could result in injury. For the recalled vehicles, replacement parts were to be fitted. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see PRA 2016/15767.
