“Brakes, grind and squeak, had them checked was told that they were fine. Also had a front wheel allignment due to right pulling!!!! And also I have experienced when front windows are rolled up and the back are down,,you do have air pressure that is not good!!!! All complaints that have been noted by previous consumers are right on the money as far as this Montero Sport vehicle, and something should be done to avoid incurring problems.”
