1999 Mitsubishi Galant ES review from North America
"Sometimes you get lucky!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had to replace the brake pads three times. The rotors did not have to be changed.
The fuel door broke at 65000 miles or so.
Fuel leaks when I fill the tank up. I do not add fuel when the pump auto shut-off stops. But the next morning, fuel leaked. Don't know the cost yet, I am taking it to a mechanic today.
General comments?
The car has been pretty reliable so far. I don't do a lot of driving (To work and home) approx. 15-20 miles a day.
This was my first Mitsubishi. When this one dies, I will go back to Honda.
