| Seats problems |
On 5/31/14, my 1997 Mitsubishi Montero was parked in my driveway. When I went to get into the vehicle, I noticed a large burn in the back of the driver¿s side seat. After calling Mitsubishi, the fire department came since it was still smoldering and disconnected the battery. They believed it to be an electrical short. After many follow-up calls to Mitsubishi, they believe it was caused by wear and tear since the car was 17 years old. All of the cost to fix the issue was on me as the owner.
