What the federal record does show is a Clean recall and complaint burden band, with zero open recalls and zero owner complaints on file. That picture is encouraging from a regulatory standpoint, but the absence of crash-test data means no structural or occupant-protection score exists to evaluate.

ANALYSISHow safe is the 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV?
The 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV enters the federal safety record in the cleanest possible position from a recall and complaint standpoint: zero campaigns, zero consumer allegations, and a Clean burden band. That band reflects the absence of regulatory and consumer-reported safety signals for this specific model year, not a structural crash-safety rating. Because NHTSA has not crash-tested this model year and no tested sibling years appear in the federal record we cover, there is no star-rating data from any adjacent year to reference as context. The practical takeaway is that this vehicle has generated no federal recall activity and no documented owner concerns to date, while its crash-test performance remains an open question.
