The fault, due to a manufacturing defect with the steering wheel touch sensors, could cause accident or injury, according to the recall notice.
Mitsubishi has recalled 7489 examples of its 2022-2023 Outlander SUVs, citing a potential fault with the steering wheel touch sensors.
The affected vehicles are stamped 2022 to 2023 models, and only affect Exceed and Exceed Tourer grades, but may have been sold at a later date.
The recall notice , lodged with the Department of Infrastructure, says: "Due to a manufacturing defect, the steering wheel touch sensors may be defective."
"As a result, the vehicle may not accurately detect the driver's hands on the steering wheel and the MI-PILOT system may not operate as intended.
