Blacksburg, Virginia, United States

 This is a 1994 Mitsubishi Montero. It is the SR version which has the larger 3.5 liter motor along with power Windows, power door locks a large sunroof that opens and closes electrically. It also has cruise control air, power steering, and is an automatic. Originally a friend of mine was going to buy it, but he couldn't keep his job so he didn't pay for it. He used it for a couple of months and had no problems with it. I had owned it for a couple years and the man I got it from lived in North Carolina and the reason he liked it, he used it for fishing, so it had a lot of room for his gear. It has been in the South and away from the coast, so it has no rust in the undercarriage or the body. It also came with seating for 7 but I removed the 2 backseats I was more interested in having a big wagon. I have them stored with all the hardware and can very easily reinstall them or give them to you. Either way would be fine with me. The motor was rebuilt about 30,000 miles ago. It also has had the timing belt replaced along with the timing belt tensioner water pump drive belts and seals. It has BFGoodrich tires the 2 on the rear are in excellent shape and the 2 on the front still have no trouble passing inspection, but are considerably more worn. It also has a good spare and full-size wheel. This vehicle was mighty big for a single owner and one dog. I usually averaged 16 to 17 miles the gallon running around in a rule area and one time going down to the coast on a level road with a 55 mile speed limit I got 19 miles to the gallon. The interior is in pretty good shape except for the side of the driver's seat is showing somewhere and has a whole in the side of the all the power attachments work and so when it's really hot outside. It doesn't try to bury you when you get in. I now have a smaller Montero, so I would like to find a new home for this vehicle. It is located in Virginia and is ready to go right now. I know all the four-wheel-drive works and I've also tried the locking rear differential. And it did block. The automatic transmission can be took out of overdrive you're going up and down steep little hills and it also has a switch that you can adjust the automatic transmission to a power mode. If you would like. This vehicle is also for sell locally. And I reserve the right to in the auction at any time Thanks for looking

2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport models with leather seats recalled over airbag fears

Tue, 25 Feb 2014

Mitsubishi is recalling 733 of its 2013 Outlander Sports that were fitted with leather seat covers due to problems with the seat-mounted airbags. Apparently, the wiring for the airbags may have been routed incorrectly when the seat covers were installed at the port.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration bulletin, the issue only really crops up if owners adjust the height of the seats. Naturally, if the seat wiring is damaged, the airbag may not deploy in the event of a side impact.
The affected vehicles were all manufactured between July 20, 2012 and May 29, 2013. There have been no reported injuries or accidents due to this issue. Mitsubishi, meanwhile, will begin notifying owners, who will need to report to their local dealer for free inspections or repairs. Take a look below for the bulletin from NHTSA.

Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV production restarts after five-month delay

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

Back in March, production of both the Mitsubishi Outlander plug-in hybrid and the all-electric i-MiEV ground to a halt over a pair of incidents where overheated lithium-ion batteries caused vehicle fires. Following the rocky start, The Japan Times is reporting that production of the Outlander PHEV has recommenced following the five-month stoppage.
The battery fires were tracked down to a supplier issue before more than 4,300 vehicles were recalled in June, but Mitsubishi received heavy criticism from the Japanese government for the delayed recall. According to the report, though, that hasn't slow down enthusiasm for the plug-in crossover - Mitsubishi has received close to 18,000 for the Outlander PHEV. To keep up with demand, the automaker is planning to double production to 4,000 units a month.

The worst rally driver you've ever seen

Wed, 14 Aug 2013

Fast cars and excellent driving skills might be the easy answers when asking how to succeed in rally racing, but after watching this video, a good teammate is obviously an important aspect of this sport, too. During the 2013 Rally of Coimbatore in India, driver Samir Thapar and his co-driver, Vivek Ponnusamy, didn't seem to be on the same page as the two attempted to navigate the course in their Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution.
We'd probably hear drastically different stories if we talked to Thapar and Ponnusamy about this particular event, but you know things are bad when "stay on road" and "turn the wheel" are commands given by the co-driver (and yes, that's a man running for his life in the screen shot shown above). As it turned out, though, it seems like the Ponnusamy was justified in his concerns to take care of the racecar. Race results show that despite winning three of the seven stages, this team ultimately ended the race with a DNF.
Scroll down to watch the video, and even though it's been edited down from almost 40 minutes to less than four, we get the idea that it wasn't a pleasant experience for driver or co-driver.
