Problem overview

Some Mitsubishi Montero Sport owners report experiencing starting issues after overheating, which may be attributed to several potential problems. These include serious engine damage such as a blown head gasket, warped cylinder, or damaged piston valves resulting from overheating. Additionally, owners may encounter electrical system failures, such as a dead battery, faulty alternator, or malfunctioning starter, which can prevent the vehicle from starting.
