Four problems related to brake disc rotor have been reported for the 1998 Mitsubishi Galant. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
At 41,500 miles I had a basic front brake job performed on my car due to the steering wheel shaking severely while braking. Approximately 6 months later I had the rotors resurfaced due to the steering wheel shaking severely while braking. Approximately 7 months after that I had the rotors resurfaced again due to the steering wheel shaking severely while braking. I have contacted Mitsubishi for reimbursement to have this problem fixed and they stated that they will not since it is not a "safety issue". It is. How can Mitsubishi say this isn't a "safety issue"? what do I need to do to get a recall for this problem so that lives don't have to be lost?.
Brake rotors and pads failed causing the brakes to pulsate when consumer applies the brakes.
Front brake rotors were oblong/misshaped. This caused the steering wheel to shake. Had happened at least twice before. The rotors would be replaced each time & the problem would reappear again.
When applying brakes, the steering shakes. Brake shoes and rotors are worn out at 19,000 miles (very premature); brake light comes on constantly in vehicle - replace w/ brake fluid, wheels screech when making a slow turn - Mitsubishi was contacted and they are giving a hard time about replacing the brakes w/19,000 miles.
