Mitsubishi Montero Sudden Acceleration Accidents [MERGED]

[Ry_Tower]

i have not consciously attempted it.
but it did happen... for some reason, my diesel engine died.
i lost brakepower and steering ability.
'twas the third scariest moment in my driving life.

my second scariest moment, was when i almost slammed into a stalled, un-warned container van in slex.. too sleepy..

and my scariest moment, was when my mitsu car went SUA. fortunately, i was able to step on the second brake pedal... the one to the left of the first brake pedal i was stepping on..

even coasting downhill on neutral is dangerous.. we lose engine brake ability and some amount of maneuverability.

Deym, that is scary.

Just when I am getting convinced that these are montero driver error, was able to chat with a friend of mine who owned a glxv strada. In D, his strada started revving wild up and down. He had presence of mind anyway to drive the car to the side of the road. He scanned the vehicle with OBD II scanner, and according to him it read TPS error. All he did was restart the engine. He sold the vehicle already. Good riddance.

Story was just relayed to me.

The car's PCM or ECM never has intent for SUA. If the driver had no intent, it was the driver's error

I know where you are getting at, hehehe. Pero mukhang, sa mitsu lang niya na experience ito. He's happy with the rest of the cars in his garage.

By the way, he also said that it was really hard for him to step on the brakes. Kahit anong tapak daw talagang lurching forward yung sasakyan, until he was finally able to halt it at the side of the road. Nung sinubukan niya ulit i start talagang sa takot niya, apak na apak siya sa preno. Hehehe.

Hindi mawawalan ng CCTV cameras dyan. It would be nice if the mall management share the footage if there is any.

Wala bang mga post ng ibang suv brand na nag driver error din? Puro montero lang ba ang nakapagpicture ng mga accident? Di kaya sinasadya eto para masira ang image ng montero? 😁

[car_fan]

Hindi kaya my psych effect na yun araw araw na news ng ABS kaya lalo namamali ng apak yun ibang montero drivers? 😁

I cannot see the related date.

Is this a recent incident?

The media hype of the alleged issue certainly has rippling effect...

Sorry, I can't help it...

Dapat yung friend mo ang mag post dito para matanong sya nang maayos. Tsismis ang labas nyang post mo eh.

Pulutan na naman ang Montero sa TV Patrol kanina. Na-feature yung long lines for "free check up" sa mga Mitsu SC.

And as usual, karugtong lagi yung mga banat ng mga SUA victims.....he he.

[car_fan]

Parang murphy's law. Hindi ako magkamali ng apak sa pedals, pero ayun laling nagkamali.

Sa side naman ng mitsu, walang prob ang montero. Pero ayun biglang may naglabasan na prob.

Parang nun college days ko. Di ako magkamali magconnect ng mga pins sa bread board, pero ayun sunog ang op amp. Lol
