I was driving on the highway when an active stability control service warning displayed on the dashboard. It was coupled with the check engine light and immediately caused my car to seize up making me momentarily lose control of the vehicle. As I regained control the vehicle continued to resist any acceleration while the rpms would frequently spike. I also lost anti-lock brake functionality with no dashboard warning. Through my mechanic I later found out the car was forcing itself into "limp mode" because the engine air flow sensor was giving a faulty reading. All of this put my car into conditions for a crash had I not acted quickly to avoid it. It also created a repair bill that was unnecessary as this is apparently part of a known technical service bulletin tsb-13-13-008. I find it inappropriate and irresponsible of Mitsubishi to not have alerted me to the defect in the air flow sensor and filter box. It caused a needless dangerous driving condition and excess repairs.

On April 12th, Thursday night around 8 pm, I was heading near the I-290/ I-90 intersection, riding on I-90 West. I heard a sharp crack in the front of the car. I lost power steering, check battery charge light came on and within 2-3 minutes, engine overheating light came on. I brought my car to a stop in a safe area between the intersecting highways. A highway worker protected me with his safety truck till aaa tow truck took my car to the local schaumburg Mitsubishi dealer any steps you took to isolate the problem, such as checking for floor mats. Be specific about what you did and how you did it. The dealer/service personnel found that the belt tensioner bearing was pulling out and the belt was not riding on the pulley correctly. The tensioner was replaced and the serpentine belt was replaced I believe this is a design fault with the belt tensioner/ bearing and should be fixed for these cars. A simple google search will show this is a fairly common problem
