Mitsubishi vibration problems

Lakeshore1744

Mitsubishi has a terrible design problem and I will not be recommending this vehicle any longer. Road salt.and dirt builds up on the rim and axle and the vehicles start to shimmy like there is something terribly wrong- as bad as a flat tire or needing a wheel alignment. It take very little dirt and can build up ( in BC ) in only 300 or so Kilometers. It takes a very, VERY meticulous cleaning to make sure there are no- and I mean NO- little clumps of dirt left behind any wheel spoke or build up on the axel or you will be at the car wash again. The dealers know about this problem as it is the first thing they tell you to do when you call about vibrations.

Did you buy this vehicle new? Isn't there some kind of undercover for the axles, calipers, etc.?

Is your mounts and bushings are good or worn out? Thi s seems pajero's known issue when on uneven rod or accelaret fast. read more here: https://carnity.com/forums/topic/13905-jerk-soundnoise-from-rear-differential-kind-of-back-lash-sound-every-time-i-accelerate

If the wheels are not properly balanced, it will cause vibration also.
