I have a 2015 Mitsubishi Mirage with a little over 89kiles on it. The transmission has been acting up for about 15k miles. I took it to Certified Transmission and they said the transmission was fine but the engine was under powered. It's a 74hp 3 cylinder of course it is under powered. Anyway, if you were driving with cruise control on it would just randomly rev to the rev limiter and you would have to cancel and resume cruise and it would work again. Once it started doing it consistently l, if I changed the CVT fluid that would fix it for a few thousand miles before it started up again. The fuel economy also went from 50mpgs to under 30mpgs on average (I commute 90 miles a day)
About 3 weeks ago it finally had a no start and check engine light and it was the day before we left for a funeral cross country.
After posing on a mirage owners group they said it was probably just the speed sensors. I bought 2 sensors from Amazon and switched them out yesterday. Now the car starts (before it was acting like it was stuck in gear) Park, Neutral and reverse work but when I put it in drive it acts like it's stuck in low gear. When you change it to low there is no change to the behavior of the transmission.
The sensors I bought were super cheap from Amazon so my wife and I talked about buying name brand ones to try. Anyone who has input I would greatly appreciate the feedback.
