1999 Mitsubishi Montero review from North America
"Overall, happy with this vehicle. Good utility vehicle with a luxurious interior and features."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The door hinge on the rear of the truck, with the attached spare tire is broken. Dealer suggests I replace the entire door (hundreds of dollars), which is ridiculous, in my opinion. Poor design, in my opinion, as the weight of the spare tire adds a lot of stress to the door hinges over time. More recent models hide the hinges inside the door- better design. Otherwise, normal wear and tear.
General comments?
Vehicle rides very well for an SUV- no major engine problems. I keep up with maintenance- I plan to keep this vehicle until 200K miles.
