I owned a 1995 Galant before I purchased my 2000 Mitsubishi Galant and I must say, Mitsubishi is the worst brand of cars ever assembled. I had so many problems with my 1995 Galant that I was forced to get rid of it after only one year and could not sell or trade the car to save my life. The only people that would deal with me were Mitsubishi again so I was forced to buy another Mitsubishi. My car is only 2 years old and I am having problems. I bought this car brand new and the battery is dead. I called the mits. Dealer were I bought the car and they said my warranty did not cover the battery, and I called the dealership down the street from me and they said mits. Has a 50/50 deal and I would have to pay $40 dollars for a new battery. I would sell this car today if I could but kelly blue book. Com tells me the car is worth less than I owe. If there is any way you can help me I would realy appreciate it. Thank you, john larney.

While traveling on highway and applying brakes, there was a loud grinding noise coming from wheel. Dealership was aware of problem. Consumer found that the problem was with the brakes/rotors, and tires. Two weeks later the back springs on tires had been replaced. Also the battery had gone dead, and the brakes still squeak.
Battery failed and was replaced.

As long as I have owned this vehicle, I have had a problem with the whole car shaking when I step on the brakes. I took it back to my dealer in oct 1999 and they turned the rotars but the problem continued. I just recently had to have it in because the battery failed and had them check out the brakes while I was there and they said I need a complete brake job. I ask the service manager to check to see if they had been done before and he found they had. He said he would turn the rotars again but I was responsible for the brake pads. The brakes were really tight when I got the car back last week, but now they seem to be getting back where they were. This car is only two years old and already had to have the battery replaced and the brakes. I feel the dealer should have changed the brake pads at no cost to me. After reading all the complaints about these cars the majority are about the brakes.
