Mitsubishi Montero Sudden Acceleration Accidents [MERGED]

[Djerms]

When this happens, BRAKE!!

If you still accelerate and the revs build up, your foot maybe on the wrong pedal.

Not all drivers will have presence of mind. Mitsubishi should make sure this doesnt happen anyway. Wondering why toyota are not plagued by sua reports. Fyi our 2010 sta fe revved wild. Luckily it on neutral. Might be the same prob for mitsu.

Did you ask Hyundai what caused the wild revving of your Sta Fe?

Hyundai marcos diagnosed it as faulty sensor or somthing....may nilinis daw. Mind you its barely 15tkms.

Btt, I agree with niky, no issue with wether the brakes can stop the SUA.

I think issue here is occurrences of sua in montero.

We also had a montero 3.2. Didnt experience that but scary to hear these issue.

Bottomline diesels tend to go wild. Our 4jg2 trooper did, good thing it was my dad driving. The rig has 100tkms on the odo. The monteros im assuming are fairly new...

Another round of Sad Unconvincing Arguments against the MS.

Gusto ata nila ibenta o huwag nang bumili ng MS.

Diesels tend to go wild? I would beg to differ.

Diesels are pretty reliable, durable and economical which is why they're used for public transport and logistics. The earliest diesel car we had was a land cruiser 40 and a W126 and they lasted a long time with minimum issues. I drive a diesel as a daily driver in Manila. I don't think the engine being a diesel is the culprit.

ang problema sir eh natataranta kaya mali ung inaapakan.

For some people that's not a scientific explanation. Remember, they have the right to know what is going on. They have the right to know if they are in danger, they have the right to know if driving this vehicle incurs liabilities.

Guess a lot of people don't want those rights since they keep on buying Montero Sports. Maybe nobody informed.

Welcome, it's more fun in the Philippines.

If you are able to systematically reproduce the claimed SUA, then I will believe.
I personally tried to do it several times in my Montero and was unable to produce SUA while doing proper braking.

I asked my wife's say about this issue. Not a pro but only with her experience driving 3 automatics of different stick styles. A sedan, SUV, and a pick-up. She said, it won't happen unless the driver will make a mistake. A driver's instinct is to hit the brake when the car moves.

in my opinion, there's nothing going on. there is no conspiracy. it's just a case of confused-feet syndrome. the brain doesn't know what is going on, because it's a spinal reflex that doesn't go up to the brain.

If ms is made and distributed also in Thailand, and no SUA reported --- ibig ba sabihin nito mas magaling thai ms drivers? :grin

im a montero owner glx manual myself but just this afternoon as i was driving along coastal road to las pinas i saw a white montero at the lane crossing to macapagal. there is a stop light so i was in slow driving. it's park light was on an suddenly it ran backwards (reversed). the suv at the back saw it coming and blew its horn but still .... boom! bumangga anyare!? i hope this would not happen to me. mitsu should check on this very seriously. i dont think its human error since the montero was at park light so the driver could have sensed something is wrong with his montero.

What do you mean of "it's park light was on"? Did you see it lit? Meron bang umilaw sa bandang likod ng montero? Yun ba ang kulay puti na light sa may bandang rear bumper ang umilaw na sinasabi nyo na park light?

Parang wala naman yata sasakyan na merong park light na visible from outside. What you saw maybe is the REVERSE LIGHT. Which only means somebody shifted the lever to reverse.

One more thing, good practice ba na eh engage sa park ang lever when stopping at an intersection waiting for the go signal?

If the lever is shifted to N during temporary stop in an intersection, one click down it will be D. Step on the accelerator and the vehicle will move forward.

If the lever is shifted to P during temporary stop in an intersection, one click down it will be R. Step on the accelerator and boom... bangga ang nasa likod.

fix your story and stop inventing stuff such as park lights and flasher lights(no such thing)

break lights
reverse back up lights(this might be you're idiotic term for park lights)
hazard lights

siren- flashing light- emergency vehicles only

most probable mistake is putting it to "p" rather than "n" in a stop and go traffic hence a shifting error occurred(driver mistake)

nakaflasher light siya nung makita ko. actually i was on the opposite road with island separating us. kaya kitang kita ko mula unahan nya katabi ko lang sya pareho kami nasa tabi ng island. pero di umaalis ang monty pero yung nasa unahan nya umarangkada na tapos bigla na lang itong umatras. bumusina yung nasa likod na suv na paparating pero deretso lang ang atras ng montero hanggang bumangga yupi yung likod ng monty. may mga cone doon sa lane nya kaya palagy ko dun na siya inabutan ng biglaang sira kasi kung hindi sudden yun dapat sa shoulder ng coastal siya nagpark.
