My wife has a 2007 Mitsubishi Outlander. A few years ago, the interior lights (dome light, lights above the rear view mirror) starting going out, and now they don't work at all. A few weeks ago, the keyless entry on two keys stopped working, even though the red light on the keys light up (so I'm assuming it's the receiver in the car). And yesterday, we noticed that both the right headlight and right parking light are not working.
Coincidence? Or does it sound like there's something wrong with the electrical system/fuses? (I know very little about cars...)

Could just be burnt out bulbs for everything except the keyless entry.

Definitely sounds like a fuse issue. My keyless entry went out last week and taking the fuse out & re-installing it fixed the problem.

That vehicle has both an interior and exterior lighting module.

After fuses are checked (which I doubt), check where the main body grounds to the frame. A Mitsubishi forum will be the best for this info.

Did you buy this car new or used?
When I start seeing weird electrical gremlins on a relatively new vehicle I always think "flood car".

I know Mitsubishi has a history of faulty wiring on older eclipses and they would actually catch on fire because of it. Never worked on one tho and don't know anything about the brand.
