1997 Mitsubishi RVR review from Jamaica
"A reliable and attractive car with minor manufacturing flaws"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The front door(s) handles have broken off twice.
Misfires intermittently when hot and idling.
General comments?
The 1997 RVR is a very attractive vehicle.
The front door handles seem to be made of inferior material that breaks very easily. All owners in this country have this problem with their RVRs.
The shocks ride much too soft for an SUV type vehicle.
The experts have not been able to figure out why my RVR misses when idling.
