NHTSA CRASH TEST RESULTS
Overall Safety Rating

Frontal crash ratings:
Driver: *  *  *  *  Passenger: *  *  *  * 

Side crash ratings:
Driver: *  *  Rear Passenger: *  *  *  * 

Results based on a 35 MPH frontal crash and 38.5 MPH side crash. Results are reported in a range of one to five stars, with five stars indicating the best crash protection for vehicles within the same weight class. This test used driver and passenger belts and airbags.

NHTSA ROLLOVER RESISTANCE RATING: *  *  *  * 

The Rollover Resistance Rating is an estimate of your risk of rolling over if you have a single vehicle crash. It does not predict the likelihood of that crash. The Rollover Resistance Rating utilizes a "fishhook" maneuver which is a series of abrupt turns at varying speeds to see how "top-heavy" a vehicle is. The more "top-heavy" the vehicle, the more likely it is to roll over. The lowest rated vehicles (1-star) are at least four times more likely to roll over than the highest rated vehicles (5-stars).

2004 Mitsubishi Lancer Review
"Fresh styling, first-time wagons, and a new engine highlight Mitsubishi's smallest cars for 2004. All Lancers have 4-cyl engines. A 120-hp 2.0-liter powers the ES, LS, and O-Z Rally sedans. Added is a 162-hp 2.4 for a sporty new Ralliart sedan, along with LS and Ralliart Sportback wagons. At midyear, the limited-edition Evolution sedan added a lower-price RS version with less equipment; both use a 271-hp turbocharged 2.0 and all-wheel drive instead of front-wheel drive. Manual transmission is mandatory on Evolution/Evolution RS, standard on ES, O-Z, and Ralliart sedan. Automatic is standard for LS sedan and both wagons, available for ES, O-Z, and Ralliart. ABS is optional for LS sedan and standard on Evolution and Ralliarts. Front side airbags are standard for Ralliart wagon, optional for LS sedan and Ralliart sedan, unavailable otherwise. Also for '04, Evolution's basic front-end look spreads to other Lancers, and sedans get revised tail styling. The O-Z features 15-inch alloy wheels, aero body add-ons, and metal-look interior accents. Ralliarts come with 16-inch alloys, sport-tuned suspension, Evolution-style front seats, and unique trim inside and out. The Evolution/Evolution RS include 17-inch alloys and specific suspension and interior trim."

Number of Units Affected 17,120
Summary Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (MMNA) is recalling certain 2004-2006 Mitsubishi Lancer vehicles that previously received a like-for-like passenger side frontal air bag inflator under recall 15V321 as interim remedy. Also recalled are 2004-2006 Lancer vehicles located in Guam or Saipan that previously received or never received a new inflator under 15V321 or 17V569. These passenger side frontal air bag inflators may be susceptible to moisture intrusion which, over time, could cause the inflator to explode in the event of an air bag deployment.
Consequence In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the passenger's frontal air bag, the inflator could explode with metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants potentially resulting in serious injury or death.
Remedy MMNA will notify owners, and dealers will install a final replacement passenger side frontal air bag inflator, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin April 26, 2018. Owners may contact MMNA customer service at 1-888-648-7820. MMNA's number for this recall is SR-18-005.
Notes Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

NHTSA CRASH TEST RESULTS

Frontal crash ratings:
Driver: *  *  *  *  Passenger: *  *  *  * 

Side crash ratings:
Driver: *  *  Rear Passenger: *  *  *  * 

Results based on a 35 MPH frontal crash and 38.5 MPH side crash. Results are reported in a range of one to five stars, with five stars indicating the best crash protection for vehicles within the same weight class. This test used driver and passenger belts and airbags.

NHTSA ROLLOVER RESISTANCE RATING: *  *  *  * 

The Rollover Resistance Rating is an estimate of your risk of rolling over if you have a single vehicle crash. It does not predict the likelihood of that crash. The Rollover Resistance Rating utilizes a "fishhook" maneuver which is a series of abrupt turns at varying speeds to see how "top-heavy" a vehicle is. The more "top-heavy" the vehicle, the more likely it is to roll over. The lowest rated vehicles (1-star) are at least four times more likely to roll over than the highest rated vehicles (5-stars).
