Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 7,500 mi; spark plugs at 105,000 mi; coolant at 120,000 mi. The big-interval services (at 120,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport represents the culmination of a clear downward trend in reported issues across this generation. Complaints peaked at 231 in 2015 and then steadily declined, reaching just 1 in 2024, while recalls dropped to zero after 2022. The single 2024 complaint falls under "Power Train, Vehicle Speed Control," but the data does not specify a root cause, and there are no crash or fire complaints. With only 15 technical service bulletins—far fewer than the triple-digit counts of early model years—the 2024 model sits at the quietest point in the generation's reliability arc. This is an excellent year to buy, offering the lowest risk of any model year in the federal record.
