DTI: No third-party qualified to investigate Montero Sport SUA
Text: Eric Tipan / Photos: AutoIndustriya.com | posted April 18, 2016 10:53
Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation (MMPC) has done all it can to clear up any lingering doubts regarding the performance of the second-generation Montero Sport and its alleged 'sudden unintended acceleration (SUA)' issue hit the headlines in 2015.
During the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) investigation MMPC presented their top executives, the Montero Sport and various other tests done by the automaker's Japan headquarters Mitsubishi Motors Corporation (MMC) that it will require an independent, third-party firm to make a qualified assessment of whether or not the Montero Sport did suffer from SUA.
Yesterday, the DTI's Bids and Awards Committee (BAC) announced that it only received a single bid for the service of investigating the allegations of SUV versus the Montero Sport.
The firm's name was undisclosed but the committee said that the bidder failed submit a document to indicate that it has completed a similar project with a value that is at least 50-percent of the approved budget for the Montero Sport SUA contract.
"Under the law, if the bidder is non-compliant, the DTI Bids and Awards Committee will proceed in accordance with the Government Procurement Process. There will be mandatory review as to why there was a failure of bid. We will convene this review committee immediately," said DTI Undersecretary Atty. Victorio Maria A. Dimagiba.
"We are bound by the results of the fact-finding investigation as well as the resolution of the House (of Representatives). And if SUA is established, DTI's role is to decide on the proper actions provided for under the law to safeguard public safety," added Dimagiba.
A reliable source revealed earlier this year that the DTI had even proposed to MMPC a third-party test to be done abroad, but will be shouldered by the company since the agency does not have the budget to perform such activity. But automaker declined due to "confict of interest".

SUA? 3 car accident
We were following the black montero sa zipper lane dito sa skyway. I think we were going around 80km/h.
Traffic stopped infront hanggang buendia na and then
Yun montero sinubukan isingit sa right side pero di siya kasya kaya rear ended the adventure, tas sumampa yun montero sa gutter at tinamaan naman yun kotse sa harap (di ko nakuha yun model), then a thick black smoke came out sa montero.

hindi ko napansin kung umilaw ang brake lights, mas napansin ko kasi nun sumampa sa gutter yun montero. pero yun usok, makapal talaga, mas makapal pa dun sa mga ASBU na nagtetesting ng emission.
buti nalang walang incoming car from the other side, kung hindi, sigurado sapol din yun adventure.

me think it was an ordinary accident as well because we were not in a stop and go traffic. maybe the attention of the driver was not 100% focus on the road.
Nagulat na nun nakahinto yun traffic sa harap, tried to squeeze in the right side, then instead of stepping on the brake, he stepped on the accelerator, hence, the thick black smoke.

June 13th, 2016 10:37 AM #10Alam ko na agad ang dahilan at idadahin nila pag may news na
Isang bus/truck biglang nawalan ng preno!
yong iba parang ganito ang tanong dito palitan nyo lang ng montero.
ilang kaso na ito? bakit puro bus at truck nalang ang nawawalan ng preno? lahat ba ng yan kasalanan ng driver? lahat ba sila ano?
