I heard a noise while driving at low speeds while hitting bumps, when I stopped driving and looked under the vehicle I noticed the frame was rusted completely through to the other side, and especially bad where the rear differential bracket is attached to the frame, its so loose it doesn't look safe to drive.
I just bought my Montero Sport 3 months ago. When testing driving the vehicle I felt pulling to the right and shaking at higher speeds. The dealer said it was just the tires and they would do an aligment. I purchased the vehicle and bought new tires. My warranty was out by the time I figured out it was not the tires. This vehicle always shakes and feels like a fish out of water, after serveral aligments it still pulls very hard to the right when u let go of the steering wheel. I wish the company would look into what the problem is and fix it.
Since purchase of vehicle there has been constant vibration, taken to dealer 4 times. Dealer balanced wheels, and did front alignment, this did not remedy the problem.
Vehicle vibrates at speeds of 55 and above. I've taken it back to the dealership 11 times and I have another appointment on 2/28/02 for this same problem. Their solution seems to be to rotate and balance the tires. That's not the solution because the problem still exists.
