3 Air Conditioner problem of the 2001 Mitsubishi Galant

Failure Date: 06/01/2005

Air conditioner leaks inside the car on drivers side and in front and behind drivers seat floor mats literally drips with water and floor is soaking wet. We purchased the car with a bumper to bumper 100,000 mile extended warranty from hampton Mitsubishi 4895 johnston st lafayette, la 70503. They told us this problem is not covered by extended warranty. I am so frustrated and feel so deceived and have vowed to never purchase another Mitsubishi car and will not recommend misubishi cars to anyone.

4 Air Conditioner problem of the 2001 Mitsubishi Galant

Failure Date: 05/13/2005

Leaking a/c evaporator into floorboard of drivers and passenger side. Used a dependable local mechanic to work on the problem. The leaking evaporator has been cleared twice by the mechanics and after spending over $600. 00 the problem is yet to be resolved. Mitsubishi corporate has yet to recall this but the more you research the more you understand that this is not an uncommon occurrence. The 2001 Galant has a significant backgound of documentation from this ongoing problem and Mitsubishi will not stand behind there product while knowing there is a major problem. In short I will not buy or recommend Mitsubishi products again.
