2001 Mitsubishi Montero LTD review from North America
"Never Again!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brakes replaced 3 times in 1 1/2 years.
CD player blew within a year.
Lifters shot in close to 3 years replaced them (not covered under warranty) engine still ticking.
Replaced engine block within 3 years, engine still ticking.
Replaced lifters again (now within 2 weeks) Lets see what happens. Truck currently in the shop for 9 weeks, and I'm paying for a rental.
General comments?
I will never again purchase a Mitsubishi. The service is horrible. Not only is the Montero truly overpriced, but it isn't worth it. I've had nothing but problems from day one. It may look good from the outside but remember..never judge a book by it's cover! Good Luck out there.
