Mitsubishi Australia has announced a mass recall of 6,384 units of the Mitsubishi Pajero. If you’ve bought this SUV around the 21st of Nov 2016 to the 30th of July 2019, you’re advised to head to the Redcliffe dealer at 218 Anzac Avenue, or your preferred dealer, as soon as possible to correct the problem.
The Mitsubishi Pajero recall covers models MY2017-18 the NX-series. According to the carmaker, these vehicles have “inadequate welding strength” which could break and lead to a failure of the front right side suspension lower control arm. If this happens, the driver might feel instability and loss of control of the steering wheel.
To prevent an accident, Mitsubishi Pajero owners are encouraged to visit the dealer for the repair. Check if your car is affected.
Owners of the defective Mitsubishi Pajero model should also receive a notification from the carmaker via direct mail. If you have not received yours, you may phone 1800 931 811 for further information and guidance, or 1300 131 211 to get in touch with your preferred dealer.
Please note that the welding repair is a free service and you must take this opportunity to get your Mitsubishi Pajero checked.
