My dealer fixed bearing 'knocking on hard turns' issue, plus first oil/filter change/check-up at N/C. No more knocking on turns. Car has 3,000 miles on it.

Clunker here too by jaclynn

Bought the 07 Outlander yesterday, XLS, loaded. Clunk was not present on test drive (same vehicle).
 
Let me say first: I LOVE this vehicle and its amenities. Like others' experiences, the clunk sound is present when turning into, or backing out of, a parking spot, whether it is at the beginning or end of a ride (which debunks the 2mph ABS self test?). Will be calling the dealer tomorrow when they open and will report back.
 
Thanks to whoever started this forum. It's been most helpful!

Picked up mu car last nite after having the second hub bearing/knuckles replaced. All is well, I am a happy camper. If any of you get this issue, tell them to replace both so as not to wait for so long for the delivery of the parts.

Mitsubishi Outlander Front End Knock by jsanza

I just bought my Outlander on Saturday. I heard the noise the same day but I thought it was a fluke considering the car only had 11 miles on it. I am having it looked at tomorrow. I am going to the dealership armed and dangerous with all of the conversations and fixes that everone had....Thank you so much......
 
Please keep me posted with any new findings!

I test drove an LS AWD last week and heard the clunk when I was making a sharp right turn. I asked the sales guy if he heard it. He blew it off like he didn't hear it. I didn't get it to happen again on the test drive.

I have one quick, rather silly question; how loud is the knock in the front end? I got my Outlander on Monday, and usually my stereo is too loud to hear it, but the few times the radio's been off I thought I heard it. However, the "thunk" was a little softer than I'd imagined. Part of me thinks it's just paranoia from reading this thread, but I'd like to know for sure!

It's loud enough to hear it when I have the radio on at a resonable volume. When you hear it, you will know that it just doesn't sound right. I would take your car in and have them change the barrings and knuckles. Make sure they do both sides on the font end.
 
I hope this helps.

I was hearing the same noise everyone complained about. I took my car into the dealer on 2/22/07 and they replaced 2 bearings. Even the service advisor told they had several come in for the same problem. Make sure you call in if your radio is fluctuating in volume. I am still working on that issue. I now have Corporate involved.

My volume fluctuates as well. I thought I was just getting bad reception. I will talk to my dealership about that as well.

My appointment to fix the "clunk" is Thursday. Wish me luck. Another forum posted the Technical Service Bulletin, which I'll be taking with me:
