Used 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport Consumer Reviews
UNCOMFORTABLE!!
Worst vehicle that I have ever owned!! Run's good, but VERY UNCOMFORTABLE to drive!! Arm rest too short, seat too low, window ledge for your left arm too narrow, A/C is undersized,takes forever to get cool, having electricial problems with the interior lights and the lights when you press the keyless entry system. No tape deck, fake roof rack, and no leg room in the back seats when the front seats are all the way back, which they have to be unless you were in the Wizard of Oz as a little person. Lousy resale also - I have 63000 mi. and they only want to give me $8500.00 for it and other than the miles there is nothing wrong with it.
2001 Montero Sport XS
It sounds like people have had a lot of issues with their Montero Sports...I have not. I am now up to 170,000 miles and have only done standard maintenace repairs. It has been an extremely reliable vehicle.

Would not buy another
I like the vehicle. I would not buy another though. The resale loss is outragious . Have had a devil of a time trying to keep the chassis aligned . Excessive tire wear. Vehice is top heavy and likes to wander and sway. Could be a danger in high crosswinds. This is two hands on the wheel vehicle. AC system is very poor at slow engine speeds. You are going to get hot in city driving on a hot day. I have had all these issues looked at by the dealer with no fixes.
Quick Review
Overall, it's a good investment. Do not expect too much from the car since you are not paying a high price on it.
Nice Truck
I really like this truck. For what it is, fuel economy isn't bad. I get 18 city / 22 highway. The thing tows great. I tow both my Vettes and my smaller cars, through the hills of PA, with no issues at all. The truck looks really good. The styling is spot on. Surprisingly, I get as many compliments on this truck, as I do my cars. This truck is like an old shirt, faithful dog, good friend. I like it a lot, and I recommend it.
