Consumer Description

I ALSO OWN A 2002 MITSUBISHI MONTERO LTD. I HAVE OWNED IT FOR 6 YEARS AND HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE BRAKES 6 TIMES. I DRIVE UP AND DOWN THE SOUTHERN CA MOUNTAINS, AND HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME SAME SHAKING A SHIMMING AS I HAVE HEARD OTHER OWNERS EXPRESS. THE BRAKES CONTINUALLY WEAR WITH BLACK "DUST" AROUND THE WHEELS, AND MAKE THE GRINDING AND GROANING SOUNDS AS WELL. I HAVE NOT ATTEMPTED TO CONTACT MITSUBISHI REGARDING THIS PROBLEM, BUT HOWEVER, AM REALIZING THAT IT HAS BECOME A REAL ISSUE, AND CONTINUES TO COST UPWARDS OF $600 EACH TIME I HAVE TO REPLACE THE BRAKES. ANY ASSISTANCE REGARDING THE BRAKES WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.
