New Mitsubishi Strada [ARCHIVED]

[Allegra]

3.2li manual , and yes I was going much much faster before the pic was taken pero sandali lang
No bravery involved
It was very smooth , the pickup and the road I mean
Dun sa gentle curves ng highway , the truck was traveling at 160

Saang hiway to, bro? I passed by Star Toll today hanggang Batangas City, mas maganda yung portion after Lipa exit. Nakaka-tempt subukan top speed. Pero di ko dala si Strada.

i'm trying to look for that out of the countless pages we have on this thread. from what i can recall, may bhudda below the 200kph mark- so probably from thailand yun... hehehehe

mga bro sorry for the very long time na di ako nakapag online. i just want to share what the service manager of mitsubishi balintawak had told me, it's Mr. RENE TAGLE.

This man insisted that having a turbo timer installed might be enough to void the warranty (whole unit) of my strada considering that my problem is with the transmission and suspension!

I argued that it was only the electrical warranty that could be voided...how can a turbo timer affect the suspension and transmission???

WOW! nakikipagtalo talaga! mas mataas pa boses sa akin! bumabalik na yata sa pagkabata. Very disappointing talaga itong service manager na to. Trabaho nito na humanap muna ng butas para mavoid ang warranty bago hanapin ang totoong problema.

Last week lang pinagawa yung outlander ng brother ko at void daw ang warranty kasi nakargahan ng maduming gasolina, di na kame nakipagtalo dun binayaran namin 31k for the fuel pump and labor. paglabas ng sasakyan ang laki ng gasgas sa magkabilang fender at may malaking dent sa ibabaw ng pinto. ang mga upuan puro bakas ng kamay na may grasa...

NAPAKABABOY talaga ng gawa. wala man lang sorry! nagpapalusot pa na madumi daw kasi yung sasakyan nung dinala dun kaya di na nila napansin kung may gasgas na dati pa. Para saan pa ang checklist kung isisisi lang din nila sa dumi ang pambababoy nila ng sasakyan, tsk tsk tsk samantalang pagkakita namin sa gasgas e may powder pa na natatanggal, nabakbak na pintura! Inaamin na ng service advisor nya na fresh pa yung gasgas, samantalang etong service manager defenssive pa rin!

Mag-ingat kayo dito sa Mitsubishi Balintawak dahil hindi safe ang sasakyan nyo dito! balewala ang checklist sa manager na ito, isisisi lang lahat sa dumi ng sasakyan nyo!

sorry to hear about your problems regarding sa sasakyan nyo sir. very disapointing talaga. anong dealer po siya under? you can file a complaint letter naman regarding sa TT mo and sa gasgas. even yung mitsu dito sa cebu nag-agree na if mag install ng TT electrical lng ma void. maybe the service manager thinks he "knows it all" kasi as his position states "manager" yung rank nya but even though di dapat ganun! ano masasabi nyo dito mga fellow BOSBs

It was nice meeting sir Dadz and his wife along with their friends during our travel to Thailand last week. Had dinner with them on our second night and the following day sir Dadz and his brother brought me to various auto-accessory shops then to a Mitsu parts center. Parts and accessories are indeed cheap. I am sure sir Av8or will have a great time shopping for strada accessories when he visits sir Dadz next week. Sir Dadz, thank you so much for your help in making our Thailand trip a worthwhile experience. Will see you again next time .

Here are some photos:

[dadz]

Im very sorry to what happen to your car? there is always some excuse just to void warranty maybe you go ang file a complain to the head office nag dealer mo. Customer service is a priority hindi lang sales.

Good luck sa iyo.

[dadz]

Bro GO1 ganda nang pictures, give my regards to the wife. Ill be waiting for you next year and if there is a good off road trip i will let you know baka pwede ka makasama.

Take care bro.

Dati di ako natuwa sa service sa Citimotors Las Pinas. So I wrote MMPC re: problem ng unit ko and requested if i can bring my unit to another dealer. Mabilis naman nagreply ang MMPC. Nagpa-update pa kung okay na problem ng unit. When i brought my unit to SFM San Pablo, ibang iba ang treatment nila. Kahit na di ako kumuha ng unit sa kanila. Inasikaso agad.

Yup ok ang service staff ng San Pablo
Bad trip lang ang layo from LB ang traffic

Anyone else have a problem w/ their kenwoods display conking out?
Mabilis naman inasikaso ng warranty ng SFM

For me voided na warranty ko, mahirap makipag argue kung ayaw nila. They have all the excuses.

I have my oil changed outside casa, upgraded my shocks. The only reason why i voided my warranty, simply because i can't see what they're doing with my TRITON..

[dadz]

Im sorry sa mga experience nyo sa warranty i really hope na sana maging standard and service and warranty para sa lahat, kahit na saan bansa ka pa mitsubishi pa din naman ang gamit mong sasakyan. Napaka laki nag diffrence sa service and warranty in every country but i think diyan sa atin ang pinaka pangit na service and warranty na experience ko na din kasi yang mga problem na yan diyan sa atin.

Medyo bayas na ako sa comment na ito.

i agree with you sir...its just sad that reality is, consumers are really not protected like other countries. I'm glad thailand has improved in so many ways, and have moved forward faster than the Philippines.

[bluemica]

sir mike diba yung kaibigan mo is from mitsu balintawak? wala din siya nagawa? anyway, sana hindi ka pa din pumayag and naghanap ka ng ibang makakausap. sayang lang laway mo kung abnormal ang kausap mo

[docholiday]

Sir Mike, pwede po ba malaman kung ano naging problema regarding your transmission and suspension? We just put up our reservation for a 3.2 manual and I want to know kung isa ba yung problem with your tranny & suspension
sa mga common complaints sa strada?

I've been reading some of the earlier posts dito and I'm impressed with the with how owners have been so happy with their stradas kaya naman I'm under the impression na reliable talaga sya kaya we chose the strada over a 2nd hand Pajero Fieldmaster. Now I'm having second thoughts about it lalo na kung madami din complains regarding claiming warranty of the car.

I guess na skip ko basahin yung mga common problems ng strada. hehehe Very active kasi itong thread na ito, dami na pages.

Sa mga strada guru's po natin dyan... mga sir's any inputs about common problems ng strada? Thank you in advance mga bossing sorry for the long post pala.

Hi guys,

I hope to get my "truck" within the week. I got a call from the office yesterday and told me that it was already there. I told them to have the unit returned because I was still in Ilocos and would rather receive the unit myself. Strangely enough, they didn't bother asking me what tint to put and slapped on a medium gray shade. I told them to have it changed to the lightest shade available.

I hope the uneven height issue that's been mentioned in this thread doesn't appear on my unit. That's why I'm taking my sweet time receiving it even though I'm excited already. Once you receive it, you lose bargaining power to have things rectified.

By the way, how do you guys measure the height? From where do you start measuring?

A big thanks to you folks. This thread has really been helpful. I hope to join you in one of the eb's soon.

Cheers

Welcome po and congrats to your new ride.. Regarding uneven heights, you can see this thru your naked eyes at the back of the truck..kasi yung sakin before thru naked eye kita na hindi pantay... pero ok na po ngayon...
