Mitsubishi Montero Sudden Acceleration Accidents [MERGED]

[bogart]

Meron siguro pero am sure nag register sila here after the "incident" , pero yung long time regular member here tapos naka encounter ng SUA ng Montero recently, wala.

Yan nga yung napapansin ko, either 2nd hand information (friend of a friend) or newly registered members.

I guess choosing a Monterosport AT non VGT as my next ride is still the best choice.

[skybison]

me magnanakaw bang umaamin na kawatan sila?

SUA claimants: find same incident with Thailand users!!!!

or try this - left foot at the brakes, floor the accelerator pedal with your right foot.
Kun napaabot mo sa 3-4k rpm yan without shutting down the engine - that's something.

also, you can only start your engine on P and N positions.

*Bank Employee,

yes, pix please include also police/incident report.

Also he wasn't the driver of the Monty. Hindi 1st hand account.

gud pm po, nasubukan nyo po ba mag park ng nakabukas ang pinto driver side tas naka labas left na paa sa pinto, para ma tantsa ang parking space or whatever.... nasubukan ko sa innova AT at altis AT na nasa D ang shifter para umusad na ng nde nag gagas, imbes na brake ang tapakan, gas ang natapakan, in short nalilito ang right foot sa dalawa pag ganun ang position mo, buti nalang handbrake agad, so malamang driver error ang case nato

you think?? sir, yun ngang nasa tamang position ng pagda-drive e naa-aksidente e yun pa kayang halos kalahati ng katawan nya e nakalabas sa sasakyan?

na witness ko yung tong SUA na to sa GB5, pero not a montero but a tucson. the lady driver, being assisted by carwash boy, was parking backwards. the man was behind signalling to the driver to go on when suddenly it went "100kph-on-reverse". the carwash boy was safe and yung driver mukhang na whiplash

moral of the story, wag sasagarin ang tapak sa accelerator pag nagpapark ka

ako nga nung first time ko sa single na motorcycle imbes na brake ang tapakan or front brake ang i grip, sa halip accelerator ang napiga, pag 1st time talaga mataas ang chance ng error tas papanic pa

I had a recent experience of SUA not on a Montero but a Fortuner, even stepping on the brakes couldn't bring the car to a halt, luckily, there was no nearby car in front of me, I put the transmission in neutral and put on the brakes to finally slow it down. At first, I was worried that there was something wrong with the car since it was submerged in the recent flood (the carpet was wet, but no serious damage), but upon testing, I found out that the accelerator pedal got stuck on the carton that I recently used to temporarily replaced my floormats since carton does a good job of absorbing water. I tried it several times with the engine off, and the pedal got stuck twice. Moral of the story? improper placements of floormats can lead to SUA.

Kala ko technical problem yung nangyari,fault mo naman pala.

[dct]

pag sabay apakan ang brakes and accelarator, mas malakas ang brakes ah

[wei]

Indeed sir, I'm quite relieved to find out that there was nothing wrong with the vehicle. It would be troublesome if its a technical issue since I'll always be nervous when driving it.

well said...driver error talaga not in the car. good thing wala nangyari sayo sir.

[eiru123]

hoax... akin na lang yang montero nyo na may sudden acceleration (kuno) hehehe...

[wei]

oo nga. Siguro kasi basa yung carton, kaya pag apak ko nung accelerator, mukhang bumaon yung pedal sa carton. Ang di ko lang maintindihan ay kung bakit di kaya nung brakes na ma stop yung car, as in tuloy tuloy parin ang pag accelerate. nag slowdown lang after linagay ko sa neutral at saka nakayanan nung preno na i-slowdown yung car. possible kaya na maoverpower nung 3.0 Fort and brakes nya pag full throttle?

yan ang maganda at valid explanation sa SUA.

[amuro]

naka hook na ang floormat ng driverside sa montero, kung bibili kayo ng pang patong na mat dapat same cut or may paglalagyan ng hook, kc baka mag obstruct sa brake or clutch pag lagpas lagpas or pag dumudulas pa taas

sir mahina talaga brakes ng fortuner compare sa monterosport.

subukan mo sir. step on the brake using your left foot, then step on the gas using your right foot, lagay mo sa drive

medyo aandar pa din yun auto. then observed kung gaano kahina brake ng fortuner compare sa monterosport.
