Speedometer Car Vehicle Gauge Automotive design

Today in the morning started the engine and
there was the warning sign:

"Engine Malfunction, Power Reduced, Service NOW"

After restarting the engin second time in 2 min. - it disapired...
So I called the Mitsubishi servie and
They've told me that it is very serious
And you have to bring your vehicle for check up...
1.Is any one has the same problem ?
2. Hope some one knows how could it be happen with NEW vehicle?
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the forum @Tomas. Sorry to hear about what happened with your Outlander. When the notification came on did anything else happen before?

Have you taken it to your dealer yet? Until they look at it it's hard to say what it could be. It could be anything from the battery to engine or transmission.

Hello Wanderer,
And thank you for your response,
I've made an appointment to Mitsubishi service for Tomorrow,
They've told me,
If sign is gonna come up again - bring it
ASAP.
But Since yesterday, vehicle drivers without Any problems & warnings,

The reason I'm kind of "impressed" -
It is my 4th Mitsubishi vehicle,
(1 Montero for 15 years & 2 Outlanders for four years) I've been the only owner
For them from the first day,
And All of them I just did:
Oil change, brakes, battery & Tires (Montero)
and of course gas...
My New 2022 Outlander has top of the line package with huge amount of
Electronic futures,
So,
Could it be some glitch from this
Point of view instead of from
battery, engine or transmission?
Thank you Wanderer!

Welcome to the forum @Tomas

It could be a lot of things but starting with the easiest to diagnose and change, the battery might be a good start. If you're up for it, get your battery tested. I hear the 'load test' is the most thorough.

Thank you Sysko,
Any suggestion is appreciated,
I'll definitely ask them to see it too
And
After the service check up -
I'll share the info.
Thank you!

The computer at the service Place didn't find any problem with my vehicle and mechanic have told me that it could be related with battery,
It is possible,
That some one just didn't turn off the light,
So battery was
almost empty.
So far (7 Days)
I didn see any more
"warning sighns".

Good luck to everybody!

I just got the same error message, my battery died twice prior to this experience , I couldn't start the car and the Dealership picked up the car. They charged up the battery and told me everything is fine. This Engine Malfunction Power Reduced is very concerning for a car with less than 1,000 miles

Why is your Battery died
Twice?
Did you leave the light on for a night?
Or something else?

No. Not at all, Just didn't drive it for one week, and it would not start..

Been happening to me since 3k miles. So far it has came on 5 times. Once I was able to get it to the dealership with the warning light on. Threw 22 codes. They kept it for 3 days and couldn't figure out anything. Cleared all the codes. Each time it comes on I shut t he vehicle off and let it reset and its dosnt come back on for a while. Talked to the dealership and they said If I can't bring it in when it comes on start documenting it with a timestamp camera for records. They have been in contact with Mitsubishi direct and everything was documented. I honestly don't think they knew what to do with it at the dealership. I even overheard the comment "its so new I don't even know if we can get parts for it". They told me hopefully more 22 Outlander owners have TGE same issue and a recall can be issued to fix the problem. At least the vehicle dosnt drive weird and its goes off when we reset the vehicle. Everyone keep your fingers crossed that they figure it out for us.

I had the same issue twice now on my 2022 outlander, I turned the car on and off couple of times and it went away. Then engine light came on so I drove it home and parked. After 5 minutes I started it and all was fine and no engine light. I’ve taken it previously to the dealership they said they don’t dine any issue with the vehicle.

My daughter's 2022 outlander has the same problem it's been in 4 times for repair it's hard to start in the cold weather and the Dash lights go out and the stereo don't work the dealer offered her a battery Warner I mean give me a break it's a nice looking vehicle but Mitsubishi has not worked the bugs out all I can say is beware of buying the New outlander
