Hello,

I have a 2012 Outlander Sport SE at 55,000 miles. About 6 months ago this car started giving me problems were its incredibly bouncy on the road and hard to control. Its very noticeable on windy roads or going up hill. The dealership has replaced all shocks and struts, plus sway bar links. The ride seemed to improve somewhat but as the new parts have settled (two weeks) its gone back to feeling incredibly unsafe on the road.

I've been told that this is normal, however the ride wasn't like this when I purchased the car. Any ideas what is going on or did I buy a lemon.

 

Very strange. My wife and I have a 2012 with 75k on it. It is actually very stable and tight feeling. I wouldn't say that is normal at all....Even my Nissan Xterra with 4" of lift and 33's doesn't drive like that. If you have any type of coverage or warranty i'd get it looked at again by a second shop

 

Yes its not normal. I'm thinking there is a part that is either loose or bent which is causing it to wobble and shimmy. I'm getting absolutely nowhere with the dealerships in this area, which is incredibly frustrating and dangerous. Does anyone have references for good mechanics in the San Francisco Bay Area that work on Mitsubishi vehicles?
