Yes, but the knock feel is very evident when you're driving slow in uneven cemented road in the metro, in my case here in Manila. Another thing is how my concerns were handled by casa, wherein I have to go back 4x before it was resolved, but then again it's a similar case naman din with other car brand basing from my experience. Anyways, I am also thankful for there were also people from casa, particularly their service supervisor and managers, who are very much willing to assist my concern.

Dear All,

I am new to Tsikot. Would just like to ask your opinion. I just got my Montero Sport 2017 GLS.
First normal ba na ang km reading at 58kms agad? Agent said because it came from Sta Rosa Plant.
Second I am very unhappy with the steering, its supposed to be brand new but I feel all vibrations in even roads.
Makalog at mangining, hindi stable. The feel is like a 10 year old vehicle na lahat ng feedback feel na feel mo sa manibela?

My agent said it could be tire pressure, I corrected all to 32 pero no change still wiggly.

On the other hand steering fluid dampen whatever sound the steering mechanism generates

Nakasakay naman sa truck yan pag dineliver sa dealer.... hindi naman yan self driven... malamang nagamit yan sa test drive...

Nope. Kadalasan dinadrive yan. Todo hataw pa sila. May iilang dealers lang ang sinasakay sa truck

Bro, bring it back to the CASA and have the wheels balanced, ganyan ginawa sa akin nung una nawala yung vibrations.

They use a trailer to bring the vehicles from the port to the main warehouse ... then it's usually driven to the dealership ... better to have odometer reading around 50kms ++ than something that's very low ... sometimes dealers disconnect the odometer when driven at far to dealerships ...
