problem #1

Feb 102007

Montero 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 62,000 miles
The steering box shaft completely snapped apart, steering was lost and had to drift into a guardrail to stop vehicle. I contacted the dealership and was told part was 2100 dollars for steering. If the vehicle was not going less than 15 mph the results would have been a diaster.
