2024 Mitsubishi Outlander — would a large MSRP cut make you wait before buying?

HighwayLearnerCommunity StarterJul 9, 20262024 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV SELSan Antonio
Price cuts and incentives are good for new buyers but can hit recent owners resale hard. How much do you consider potential manufacturer price moves when buying a newer EV or luxury car? Interested in real owner experience more than guesses.

Don't clear the alert just to make the screen pretty. Leave the alerts on the 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander so service can see what you saw. That's where I'd start. Run the total, not the monthly, before you commit. I'm keeping receipts and dates in one folder.

Charge curves lie if you don't match starting SOC and temp. Match starting SOC and battery temp if you're comparing 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander charge sessions. I'd do that before spending real money. Keep sale price, fees, and rate as three different conversations. That's coming from doing this as an owner, not a shop. Happens in gear, not in park, for what that's worth.

I'd treat 12V warnings as a no-ignore. On the 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander, I'd get the 12V/DC-DC side checked even if the traction pack looks fine. I'd do that before spending real money. On “would a large msrp cut make you,” that was the fork that mattered for me. That's the whole play. Not interested in a five-hour wait for a shrug.

Don't clear the alert just to make the screen pretty. Leave the alerts on the 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander so service can see what you saw. That's where I'd start. Post the numbers (or the code) and people can get more specific. Doing the boring step first on purpose.

Tried a second charger / second scan and the story on the 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander didn't change. Trying not to diagnose from the couch.

Same neighborhood, different next step: On the 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander, I'd get the 12V/DC-DC side checked even if the traction pack looks fine. That's where I'd start. On “would a large msrp cut make you,” that was the fork that mattered for me. This is from a 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander in San Antonio. Have you gotten a second quote in writing? Only after sitting overnight so far.

Low-voltage gremlins will strand you even with a full pack. Try a second charger before blaming the 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander — site sharing and pack temp change the curve a lot. That's where I'd start. If it doesn't change the out-the-door or the repair estimate, it's noise. No warning lights, which is why I'm documenting it.

Fair point. Counterpoint: Match starting SOC and battery temp if you're comparing 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander charge sessions. That's where I'd start. When does it actually happen? I refuse to clear codes until someone else sees them.

Charge curves lie if you don't match starting SOC and temp. Match starting SOC and battery temp if you're comparing 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander charge sessions. Then you'll know the next fork. Had a similar mess a couple years ago and that's what finally sorted it. Make the next action something you can finish this week. No warning lights, which is why I'm documenting it.
