I HAVE 2 COMPLAINTS. I HAVE A 2002 BLACK MITSUBISHI GALANT ES AND LIKE MANY OTHERS I SEE ON THE ROAD AND HAVE READ ABOUT ON THE INTERNET. OXYDIZATION HAS OCCURRED ALL OVER MY CAR, IT STARTED ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO AND BUFFING AND WAXING DOES NOT HELP. ALSO, ANOTHER PROBLEM THAT STARTED ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO: WHEN TURNING FROM AIR TO HEAT OR VICE VERSA, THERE IS A LOUD CLICKING NOISE AND THEN IT WILL TURN OVER WHEN IT FEELS LIKE. I THINK RECENTLY IT HAS JUST GIVEN OUT AND COMPLETELY BROKE. I JUST PAID THIS CAR OFF AND AM EMBARRASSED TO DRIVE IT. *TR

PAINT DEFECT LEADS T RAPID OXIDATION AND RUSTING OF CAR. *TR

2002 BLACK MITSUBISHI GALANT, IT SEEMS THAT ALL THE GALANTS FOR SEVERAL YEARS HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE PAINT..THE PAINT ITS LIKE DISAPPEARING IF YOU LOOK AROUND AND PAY ATTENTION YOU WILL FIND A WHITE COATING COMING FROM THE PRIMER USED...

I WAS DRAGGED WITH VEHICLE DOWN DRIVEWAY ACROSS STREET INTO A YARD AND INTO A TREE WHERE VEHICLE CAME TO REST AFTER CRASHING INTO TREE. THE GALANTS SHIFT LOCK DOES NOT WORK THE BRAKE SHOULD HAVE TO BE DEPRESSED TO SHIFT AND NOT AT ALL IF ENGINE IS OFF. THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AS THIS COULD WELL HAVE BEEN FATAL. LUCKILY I RECEIVED ONLY A BROKEN FOOT AND CUTS. *TR

2002 MITSUBISHI GALANT HAS A PAINT DEFECT THAT IS SEEN IN EVERY BLACK GALANT THAT IS SEEN ON THE ROAD. THE MANUFACTURER DENIES ANY RESPONSIBILITY. IN ADDITION THE VEHICLE LOSES HUB CAPS CONSTANTLY. THIS CAN ALSO BE SEEN IN ALMOST EVERY GALANT ON THE ROAD MANUFACTURED AROUND THOSE YEARS. *TR

OUR 2002 BLACK MITSUBISHI GALANT HAS PAINT FADING ON THE TRUNK AND TOP. TWO BODYSHOPS HAVE TOLD US THIS IS COMMON WITH MITSUBISHI DUE TO THE CLEAR COAT USED. THIS IS A WELL MAINTAINED CAR WITH ONLY 70,000 MILES AND LOOKS TERRIBLE. *TR

MY 2002 SILVER MITSUBISHI GALANT GTZ LOOKS HORRIBLE. NOTICING AFTER THE CAR WAS PURCHASED THAT THE CAR DID NOT HAVE ANY REAL SHINE TO IT. TRIED WAXING AND STILL LOOKED BAD. EVEN RUNNING YOU HANDS OVER IT DOES NOT FEEL SMOOTH. WELL IN 2007 I NOTICED BLOTCHY SPOTS ALL OVER IT NO LOOKS LIKE THE PAINT IS GONE COMPLETELY. I ACTUALLY PAID EXTRA FOR THE CLEAR COAT PROTECTION AND UNDERCOATING INNERCOATING WHEN PURCHASED NEW. IT'S AS IF IT SHOWED UP AS SOON AS THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. NO ONE CAN GIVE ME ANY INFORMATION AND I THINK I MAY GET A LAWYER TOO. AS I READ MORE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, THE MORE AND MORE TICKED I AM! *TR

I AM OWNER OF 2002 BLACK MITSUBISHI GALANT WITH A VERY BADLY FADING PAINT JOB. I AM A SECOND OWNER OF THIS CAR(SINCE 2006) AND FOR THE COUPLE YEARS THE FADING PROCESS HAS BEEN RATHER DRAMATIC AND THE CAR JUST LOOKS UGLY, INSPITE OF ME NEVER HAVING ANY ISSUES WITH THE PERFORMANCE OF THE CAR ITSELF ENGINE OR OTHERWISE. I KNOW THAT THERE A SIMILAR BLACK MITSUBISHI OWNERS(GALANT, ECLIPSE, ENDEAVOR) SUFFERING FROM THIS ISSUE. HENCE FILING MY COMPLAINT REQUESTING FOR SOME ACTION AGAINST MITSUBISHI AMERICA TO REPAIR THE SHODDY PAINT JOB. *TR

I TOOK MY CAR TO WAL-MART FOR OIL CHANGE AND TIRE ROTATION, THEY DID THE OIL CHANGE AND REFUSED TO DO THE TIRE ROTATION. THEY RECOMMENDED THAT BOTH FRONT TIES BE REPLACED. THEY MADE ME SIGN A PAPER THAT THEY INFORMED ME OF THE PROBLEM WITH THE TIRES. THE TECHNICIANS SAID HE WON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR ESPECIALLY WITH KIDS ON BOARD. I DO CARE OF MY CAR AND KEEP UP WITH THE TIRE ROTATION AND GENERAL MAINTENANCE. I TOOK THE TO DISCOUNT TIRES AND THEY RECOMMENDED REPLACING THE TIRES BECAUSE OF CRACKS IN THE TIRES. MICHELIN IS REFUSING TO HONOR THE WARRANTY 6 YEARS / 90,000 MILES. THERE IS NO WAY THESE TIRES CAN GO 90,000 MILES, THERE ARE CRACKS IN THE TIRES. A SECOND LOOK AT THESE TIRES IS VITAL, THEY HAVE CRACKS AND THERE IS NO WAY THE CAN HANDLE THE 90,000 MILES. MICHELIN IS PLAYING GAMES AND ARE REFUSING TO HONOR THE WARRANTY. *TR

THE CAR STARTED FADING ON THE SIDE DOORS. WAS TOLD BY DEALER THAT IT WAS A COMPLAINT TO THE MANUFACTURER. AFTER THE SUMMER OF LAST YEAR THE ROOF STARTED TO FADE ALL OVER. THERE HAS BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS WITH THIS TYPE OF CAR OWNERS. MY FATHER AND I TRIED WASHING AND WAXING THE CAR TO KEEP FROM FADING, BUT ITS DAMAGED TO THE POINT WHERE THE CAR WILL NEED TO BE STRIP AND SANDED. *TR

I CRASHED MY 2002 MITSUBISHI GALANT... I WANTED TO KNOW IF THE SAME RECALL THAT WAS DONE ON THE 2003 MITSUBISHI GALANT COULD ALSO BE FOR THE 2002 BECAUSE MY CAR CAUGHT ON FIRE. *TR

OWN A 2002 MIT. GALANT ES V6... HEATER CONTROL MOTOR IS BAD DEALER WANT 450 DOLLARS TO REPLACE GOT ONLINE AND THIS IS A PRODUCTION PROBLEM. MANY OTHERS WITH 02-03 GALANTS HAVE THIS PROBLEM.. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE DUE TO DEFROST NOT WORKING PROPER AND THIS COULD CAUSE PEOPLE TO CRASH AND DIE..... *TR

SON WAS DRIVING HOME FROM COLLEGE AND THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR CAUGHT ON FIRE AS HE WAS LEAVING THE PARKING LOT. HE IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND PUT OUT THE FIRE BURNING THE TIPS OF HIS FINGERS. *TR

I HAVE A 2002 MITSIBUSHI GALANT ES AND I WAS INVOLVED IN A WRECK INVOLVING 3 AUTOS AND I HIT THE BACK END OF THE SECOND CAR, CRUSHING THE GRILL IN TOWARD THE RADIATOR, AND NEITHER OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. *TR AND THIS WAS A HARD IMPACT. THESE ARE PUT INTO AN AUTOMOBILE TO BE A SAFETY FEATURE AND THEY FAILED TO WORK. *TR

A/C HEATER BLEND MOTOR WORN OUT. VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR, BECAUSE THE WHOLE DASHBOARD HAS TO BE RIPPED APART. *TR

MITSUBISHI GALANT ES, HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE HEAT/AC CONTROL, MAKES A GRINDING NOISE, IT ALSO LOCKS INTO A POSITION WHICH ONLY ALLOWS COLD AIR TO BE VENTED...BAD IF IT'S COLD OUTSIDE. MITSUBISHI WON'T REPLACE THE DEFECTED PARTS, THEY ASK THE CUSTOMER TO PAY FOR PARTS AND LABOR. THE PROBLEM BEGAN WHILE UNDER WARRANTY BUT WAS NEVER REPLACED. *TR

THE PAINT ON THE ROOF/HOOD OF MY 2002 MITSUBISHI GALANT HAS FADED BADLY. I READ DOZENS OF COMPLAINTS FROM PEOPLE ONLINE WHO OWN MITSUBISHI GALANT'S REGARDING MYSTERIOUS PAINT PROBLEMS ON THE HOODS OF THEIR CARS. COMMON PROBLEMS REPORTED IS PAINT FADING BADLY ON THE HOOD, ROOF, AND TRUNK FROM OWNERS WHO HAVE HAD THEIR CAR FOR ONLY A FEW YEARS. I'VE ONLY HAD MY CAR FOR TWO YEARS AND THE ROOF OF MY CAR HAS FADED BADLY THROUGH NO FAULT OF MY OWN. THESE PAINT PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN GIVEN COMPLETELY UNSATISFACTORY EXCUSES BY MITSUBISHI AND AS A RESULT MULTIPLE FORUMS AND WEBSITES. MITSUBISHI SOME HOW NEGLECTED TO ADD THE CLEAR COAT PROTECTION TO ALL BLACK PAINT AND APPARENTLY HAVE ADMITTED TO THIS BUT HAVE NOT TAKEN ANY STEPS TO REMEDY THE SITUATION. I BELIEVE THAT THIS MATTER CAN BE BROUGHT TO MITSUBISHI'S ATTENTION VIA A CLASS ACTION SUIT. THEY SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PRODUCTS THEY SELL. *TR

MITSUBISHI HEATER CORE LEAKING ALL OVER. CARPET SOAKING WET!! *TR

I BOUGHT MY CAR BRAND NEW (02 MITS. GALANT - BLACK) AND THE PAINT AND CLEAR COAT HAS BEEN FADING. IT STARTED ON THE TRUNK IN A SMALL SPOT AND NOW HAS SPREAD TO THE ROOF AND HOOD. I WAS TOLD BY MITS. THAT THERE ARE NO RECALLS, THEREFORE THEY AREN'T ABLE TO ASSIST ME SINCE I NOW HAVE OVER 100,000 MILES ON THE CAR. I WAS ADVISED BY CHERYL (CUSTOMER SERVICE REP) THAT THEY HAVE A BUSINESS TO RUN AND THAT SINCE I'M OUTSIDE OF THE WARRANTY PARAMETERS THEY AREN'T ABLE TO HELP ME. AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET I'VE NOTICED THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL CONSUMERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. IT SEEMS THAT MITS. IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, BUT THEY AREN'T WILLING TO ACKNOWLEDGE IT. *TR

18 DEMEITS ? HORN NOT WORKING REPOLLED NO REASON BAD VIN# CAR TURNED OFF LO-JACK. *TR

I HAVE A 02 GALANT THAT WITH OUT ANY WARNING SIGNS AT ALL THE WHOLE CAR JUST SHUT DOWN AND STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING COME TO FIND OUT ITS THE ENGINE I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY BECAUSE I WAS KEEPING THE CAR UP TO DATE ON SERVICES NEEDED IT WOULD COST MORE THAN THE CAR IS WORTH TO GET FIXED SO FOR KNOW IM STUCK WITH A MONTHLY PAYMENT AND A BROKE DOWN CAR IN MY DRIVEWAY. *TR

2002 GALANT SUSTAINED HEAD-ON COLLISION AT APX. 45MPH. (GALANT WAS STOPPED AND ANOTHER CAR RAN A STOP SIGN AND SLAMMED INTO THE FRONT OF IT) AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THIS WAS MENTIONED TO THE REPAIR SHOP AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE IMPACT WAS NOT "SEVERE ENOUGH", WHICH I FOUND VERY HARD TO BELIEVE. NOW I SEE THAT IT IS A NORMAL OCCURRENCE WITH THIS POORLY DESIGNED VEHICLE. *TR
