II. Statement of the Problem
Safety
A number of accidents occurring in the Philippines involving the Mitsubishi Challenger, locally
marketed as Montero Sport, were reported concerns regarding the safety of the car model and
filing of several lawsuits against Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation.
Incident Management
As of November 2017, over 100 complaints against Mitsubishi Motors Philippines were filed by
Montero Sport owners. The incident has since been the subject of an investigation by
the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI).
There are also several Sudden Unintended Acceleration (SUA) incidents involving 2009 to 2011
Montero way back in the year 2010 to 2012. However, no such incidences have surfaced in other
countries just because the units that are involved in the incidents are locally made and not
imported.
Quality Assurance
Mitsubishi has asserted that the vehicles are safe to use and any sudden acceleration claims were
of no basis. The company however offered a free inspection for Montero owners affected by the
incident.
Mitsubishi Motors Corporation show that the alleged sudden unintended acceleration (SUA)
incidents involving the previous-generation Montero Sport were likely because of "pedal
misapplication."
The only plausible root-cause identified that could simultaneously cause unintended acceleration
and perceived brake failure, which is a combination of driver and mechanical error, where the
driver pressed the accelerator pedal, believing their foot to be on the brake pedal. Even if the
vehicle suddenly accelerated, the driver could still control the vehicle by using the brakes,
depressing the clutch pedal or shifting the transmission into neutral.
In addition, is the installation of the floor mat, wherein it is not in appropriate size.
