Mitsubishi Montero Sudden Acceleration Accidents [MERGED]

[Djerms]

Kunwaring ma-sua, mabagal lang ang acceleration nyan. Makakareact agad. Hahaha

Hehehe yan pala ang advantage ng crosswind.

Pati tuloy asawa ko natakot na sa ASX. Laki pa naman ng discount. Takot sya dahil sa SUA at takot din sya mag kamali. Sanay kasi sa MT. Pati tuloy ako takot na sa AT at baka ma driver error. Lol

the SUA issue is pretty prominent in abscbn/dzmm. how is it in the other stations?

Just a thought.

Assuming these "alleged SUA" are a result of human error, how come most of the report involves a Montero?

Is it because there are more Monteros on the road than any of other types of SUV, hence the probability is higher? Probably not because there are thousands of Fortuner on the road also.

Is it because Montero owners/drivers are "dumber" than the rest? (Sorry for not having the right word to use)

Or is it in the design of the vehicle? Maybe the brake pedal is very close to the accelerator pedal, etc.

Or maybe a hardware/software problem?

Sana bumagsak na resale value ng Montero MT to 400k. 2 of my credit cards offered me the best interest sa credit to cash for 5 years. May 60k ako diviidend ngaun to buy 4 sets of AT tires, 4 rota black rims saka 4 na westlake AT + lift.

Ganito lang sana model ang kunin ko for my Land Rover Wannabe Rig. Pero because of this. Makatsamba ako ng 2014 Montero MT. Syempre mas mura ang MT sa AT dba?

Its in the design of the BRAKE pedal and the accelerator pedal (too close to each other). I have a 2012 montero and when I am wearing crocs slippers, there are few occasions that my right foot accidentally touch the accelerator pedal when I depress the BRAKE pedal. Lucky it is only slight touch and not fully depress like what happened to the white montero who almost killed the cat :bwahaha::bwahaha::bwahaha:

nonetheless, the only chance of me giving up my monty is if mmpc will replace it with 2016 model for free or give me extra 5 years free maintenance.
