 Although I liked my Mitsubishi Montero Sport for the most part, I don't belive it was constructed well.  I've had a large number of problems with this vehicle. Initially it was a little oil leak, which always seem to take a while to fix.  After it was repaired, some lifters were getting stuck.  After several failed attempts to get this fixed, I ended up getting a new short block.  With that repair, they damaged the bolt that one of the tension pulleys is mounted to, causing it to shear off a month or so later.  Now I have additionaloil leaks, from the head gasket to the cam plug o-rigns.  Other issues include poor shifiting from 3rd to 4th when accelerating quickly.
