Mitsubishi waited five years to recall the vehicles after receiving the first report of problems in March 2010. The automaker received a report about a strange noise coming from under the passenger seat.

Mitsubishi hasn't announced when the blower motor recall will begin, but said dealers will replace the blower motor in all affected vehicles. 2009-2010 Mitsubishi Lancer 2009-2010 Mitsubishi Outlander 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution As in the previous recall, Mitsubishi waited five years to recall the vehicles after the first reported incident.
