I have a 2002 Galant, it was the first brand new car I bought for myself, the brakes squeaked the first day I've had to get the breaks done twice already and it only has 64,000 miles I've also gone through 2 sets of tires I'm about to buy new tires this week. In the last 2 months I've noticed it drives a lot harder now, there's odd noises coming out of the engine and it sounds like something is rubbing on the front tires when I drive. It pulls to the left really bad when I brake. If it's idling it sounds like it's struggling for air and shakes a little. I'm not even done paying for this car yet.
Brakes.
I purchased a 2002 Mitsubishi Galant ES from dunphy Mitsubishi in havertown, PA February 18, 2002. A couple of days later my brakes started to squeak, I called dunphy Mitsubishi and scheduled an appointment for service. After the service center sprayed my brakes days later they began to squeak again, I placed another call and was told by dunphy service department that their will be a remedy to solve the problem and I will receive a notice shortly. Well, I still have not received a notice and my brakes continues to squeak and I'm concerned for my safety. So, I called peruzzi Mitsubishi in fairless hills, PA and explained what I was told by dunphy Mitsubishi and was advised that their was not a remedy and I was lied too by dunphy Mitsubishi.
