1999 Mitsubishi Galant ES review from North America
"Japanese reliability in an aggressively designed package"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only problem has been 3 manufacturer recalls which were quickly dealt with by the dealership.
Brake pads changed at 8500 miles. I believe this was too soon. This was the last major service I will have done by dealership.
General comments?
As much as I would like to purchase a european auto, I can't get myself to sell this car because it has been so reliable.
One of the better designs to come out of Japan.
The cloth interior is very comfortable and well built. After two years, the interior still looks new.
A fairly sporty 4 cylinder engine and transmission combination.
