| I have a 1995 montero sr and while i was driving on the highway i smelled oil and when i stopped to check it the rear driver side tire caved in and oil was all over the ground what's left of it any way , the weld on housing the axle assembly was broke any how i tow it home and check it to find out that the teething on the axle inside is gone the fact there is no oil and the seal and the bearing inside the housing is gone , so i called the dealer and told me there is nothing they can do but to change the axle assembly for about little over 5000 dollars ,wow then i started doing some research to find out that other people had the exact same problem which is uncomment to happen on a utility truck in a normal driving condition this truck was never driving off road , any way i called mits company and they gave me no answer and told me to go to the dealer hhh , i am pretty sure that this is a defect , by the way my truck has ben parked for a year and half i still have it hoping to find a cheap axle to replace but i think mits company should replace it . i mean what are the odds so many trucks have the same problem same axle side plus some other engine problems that others had filed complains against mits motors i have them too. *tr | |||
