Mitsubishi Montero (2009) Updates

Wednesday, 09 August 2023 06:39 PM On August 9, 2023, a Mitsubishi Montero Sport was involved in a fatal accident in Mandaluyong, where two people were killed after being hit by the vehicle. This incident is part of a series of sudden unintended acceleration (SUA) incidents reported in the Philippines. I think such incidents highlight the need for rigorous safety inspections and recalls when necessary.

Saturday, 18 September 2021 08:22 PM On September 18, 2021, a Mitsubishi Montero Sport rammed into a Mister Donut branch in Greenhills, San Juan, causing damage to the shop and a parked taxi. Fortunately, no injuries were reported. This incident adds to the growing list of SUA incidents involving the Montero Sport in the Philippines.

Wednesday, 17 March 2021 11:19 AM On March 17, 2021, a Mitsubishi Montero Sport GLS-V unintentionally rammed into the Land Bank EDSA Congressional Branch in Muñoz, Quezon City, injuring a bank employee. This incident is one of many SUA cases that have raised concerns about the vehicles safety. I believe that ongoing investigations and potential recalls are crucial to address these issues.

Tuesday, 15 December 2015 08:32 PM In December 2015, several incidents of sudden unintended acceleration involving the Mitsubishi Montero Sport were reported in the Philippines. One notable incident involved a Montero Sport slamming into concrete barriers on the Skyway Stage 3 construction in Quezon City. These incidents led to multiple class action lawsuits against Mitsubishi Motors Philippines.

Tuesday, 01 December 2015 11:46 PM In late 2015, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) in the Philippines began investigating reports of SUA incidents involving the Mitsubishi Montero Sport. The investigation followed numerous complaints and incidents, including a fatal accident during a funeral procession in September 2014. I think its important for regulatory bodies to take such complaints seriously to ensure public safety.

Saturday, 13 September 2014 02:17 PM On September 13, 2014, a Mitsubishi Montero Sport suddenly accelerated during a funeral procession, striking 13 people and resulting in two casualties and 11 injuries. This incident was one of the earliest and most severe reported cases of SUA involving the Montero Sport.

Monday, 31 December 2012 12:13 PM In 2010-2012, several incidents of sudden unintended acceleration involving the 2009 to 2011 Mitsubishi Montero Sport models were reported in the Philippines. These incidents led to increased scrutiny of the vehicles safety features. I believe that timely recalls and inspections can help mitigate such risks.

Thursday, 02 October 2008 12:57 PM The 2009 Mitsubishi Montero Sport received an all-new interior design, including a black and light grey dashboard accented by silver and other premium materials. This update aimed to enhance the vehicles comfort and aesthetic appeal. I think the interior updates were a step in the right direction for improving the overall driving experience.

Thursday, 02 October 2008 10:28 PM Mitsubishi revealed the 2009 Montero Sport with significant updates, including improvements in engine performance and fuel efficiency. The vehicle was designed to handle various road conditions, particularly in regions with poorly paved roads. I believe these updates made the Montero Sport a more reliable choice for many drivers.
