Hi ,
This Week’s Interesting Fix: 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander
This week's fix is an odd one! Mechanic Cody Basinger was called over to a good friend and loyal customer's house because her 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander was stuck in park! Once he was able to get the car to his shop, he found that the issue was the brake switch. What happened? The owner of this Mitsubishi had used a steam cleaner to clean her console!
The Fix: After replacing the parking brake button with one Basinger ordered off of eBay, and performing a parking brake reset, the brakes were as good as new! Keep reading here!
