[batangmahal]

oo nga, kanino kayang outlander yun? it would be good to know... at least, we can also get feedbacks as far as the recall and the job done is concerned.

got this reply from mitsu phil. re brake check valve:

Dear Mr. ____,

We are glad to hear inquiries/concerns from customers like you, as this an opportunity to serve you better.

With regard to your concern, we already received information from MMC Japan regarding Brake Check Valve issue on LANCER EX and OUTLANDER. According to the information, of all the vehicles (LANCER EX and OUTLANDER) that were exported here in the Philippines only 1 (one) OUTLANDER unit was affected. We already identified the vehicle and will soon contact the owner upon arrival of replacement part from MMC Japan anytime within this month of April. No LANCER EX model was affected according to MMC information.

We would like to assure you that Mitsubishi Motors Corporation Japan and MMPC are committed to care for our customers.

It has been 3 or 4 months since this tragedy... what are the official results of the investigation? If it has been proven to be the faulty brake system of the Outie, The BIG mistake of the past must not be repeated again! By all means, MMPC must inquire with the dealer if that Outie is still running while waiting for the part!

Naalala ko nga tong accident na to ah.
And another Outie accident mga 2months na sa Tagaytay.

Dapat inform kaagad ng MMPC yung owner di ba?

[Horsepower]

Kawawa naman yung namatay sa SCTEX Outlander accident kung sila yung tanging isa na may brake defect.

i posted the affected outie (with VIN) a couple of posts back, anyone knows whether this particular outie owner has been informed?
