NHTSA complaint: 1999 MITSUBISHI GALANT — SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC
BOTH AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY, EXTENSIVE FRONT END DAMAGE ON 07/06/00. PROBLEM # 2 FRONT DISC BRAKES HAVE ALWAYS MADE A GRINDING NOISE AND FRONT END HAS A VIBRATION. CAR WAS TAKEN BACK TO DEALER A COUPLE OF MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE, FRONT BRAKE SHOES WERE REPLACED AND ROTORS TURNED(NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY). THIS FAILED TO FIX PROBLEM, I HAVE SINCE LEARNED TO LIVE WITH IT(CAN'T AFFORD TO HAVE IT FIXED). NOTE: I BELIEVE YOU MAY HAVE A RECALL ON MY THIRD PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE, ALTHOUGH I HAVE NOT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM THE MANUFACTURER, MY CAR LOSES POWER TO MY ACCESSORIES(RADIO, AIR CONDITIONING,ETC.).
