Gasoline Engine Problems of Mitsubishi Montero Sport

I have a brand new 2003 Mitsubishi Montero Sport with a 3. 0 engine. The cam shaft came apart and the Mitsubishi rep refuse to authorize the repair. This vehicle is still under the new car warranty. Nothing was done to repair my vehicle. The SUV needs a new engine. What happen to customer service?.

I'd noticed previously my car would shake as if it was going to fall dead, but wouldn't or there would be a thump like someone had hit me and the car would move slightly. This would only happen when the car was stationary at a light/stop sign or if I was waiting to make a turn. On yesterday, after taking my car in for scheduled maintenance and having that maintenance completed, I left the dealership. On my way home, I was waiting to turn into a parking lot car shook as if it were about to fall dead ,then lunged forward. I called the dealership to alert them and advised them that the incident frightened me. I was told by the service advisor that another woman with the same type of car had reported a similar incident and had to bring her car in and that they had to replace her engine. I was told at this time, they belied it might be the torque converter. I drove the car back to the dealership and was told they would keep the car, and a technician would drive it to see if the same thing occurred. I called today 3/19/01 and was told by gary, that the technician drove the car for 1 hour and nothing happened. Then out of the blue , the same thing I described had occurred. I was told he had a call into the engineering line and they were waiting to hear back. I advised gary I did not want that car back until I was comfortable this would not happen again. He said a TSB had been issued on this situation, but when I checked the website, I was unable to find it. I located only recall info. On the hydraulic brake system.
