Consumer Description

SINCE I PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE (2001 MITSUBISHI MONTERO LIMITED), I ALWAYS HAD PROBLEM WITH THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT PROBLEM. THE THIRD DAY I GOT THE VEHICLE FROM THE ALHAMBRA MITSUBISHI DEALERSHIP, THE LIGHT TURN ON. AND ALWAYS GOT THE SAME REPLY " MAKE SURE THE GAS CAP IS CLOSED PROPERLY". I HAD 5 CARS AND I NEVER HAD ANY KIND OF PROBLEM LIKE EXEPT THIS MONTERO LIMITED. MY CAR HAS 63000MILES RIGHT NOW, AND THE LIGHT WILL TURN ON EVERY 2MONTH. AND NOW THE VEHICLE HAS THE LIGHT ON AGAIN, AND DEALER WILL NOT DO OR CARE ABOUT THE PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM ALWAYS HAPPEN WHEN THE CAR IS GOING UPHILL OR WHEN IT NEED POWER. ALSO THE BRAKE LIGHT KEEP FAILING. *AK
