Electrical system
4 reports
“My 2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross SE has developed a localized area of unresponsive touch input in the lower-center portion of the infotainment touchscreen. The display itself continues to function normally, but touch commands do not register in the affected area. The failure is repeatable and appears to be a hardware/touchscreen digitizer failure. This creates a safety and vehicle-operation concern because the touchscreen is also used to access and adjust vehicle settings and functions, not just entertainment. When controls are located within the unresponsive area, those settings cannot be adjusted. One specific concern is the vehicle's power-folding mirror setting. If the touchscreen becomes unresponsive in the area needed to access or adjust this setting, the driver may be unable to change the mirror-folding configuration. In cold weather, the mirrors can potentially freeze while folded, creating an operational and visibility concern. I have found other reports of similar touchscreen failures on 2022 Eclipse Cross vehicles. I also found Mitsubishi TSB-25-54-002/TIN-25-54-001 concerning unresponsive SDA2 touchscreens on certain 2020–2022 Mitsubishi vehicles.…”
