Mitsubishi Australia has issued a recall for more than 25,000 Outlanders due to a rear-view camera issue.
The issue – affecting the latest 2022-23 Mitsubishi Outlander and Outlander PHEV medium SUV – relates to a software issue that could cause the rear-view camera image to be "temporarily disrupted when reversing".
It follows a previous recall issued in July 2022 for a similar, but not identical, issue involving a potential black-out for the rear-view camera image, which affected 6552 model-year 2022 Outlanders in Australia.

A Mitsubishi Australia spokesperson confirmed those vehicles are included in the latest recall "to fix a temporary issue with the reversing image, that can still present even after the first software update".
