2003 MITSUBISHI GALANT Complaints

WE HAVE A 2003 MITSUBISHI GALANT AND AFTER ONLY 3 WINTERS THE HEATING CORE HAS GONE OUT. THIS IS RIDICULOUS!! ESPECIALLY SINCE THIS CAR HAS EXTENDED COOLANT AND NOTHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO THIS CAR FOR AT LEAST 5 YEARS. THE AUTO REPAIR SERVICE I USED REPLACED THE HEATING CORE ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THE HEATER CONTROL MOTOR VALVES WERE NOT OPENING UP WHICH CAUSED THE HEATER CORE TO GO BAD. FROM MY UNDERSTANDING THE MITSUBISHI DEALER WHERE THE PARTS CAME FROM KEEP THESE IN STOCK BECAUSE THIS IS HAPPENING QUITE FREQUENTLY IN THESE CARS. THIS IS $1400 WORTH OF PARTS AND LABOR. THIS SHOULD DEFINITELY NOT HAPPEN TO A CAR THAT IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD. *TR

MY WIFE'S 2003 MITSUBISHI GALANT'S HEATER FAILED LAST YEAR. WE HAD THE HEATER CONTROL MOTOR REPLACED. IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN THIS YEAR. I CAN'T SEE SPENDING 400 DOLLARS ONCE A YEAR TO FIX THE HEATER. *TR

AFTER NORMAL USE, THE HEATING SYSTEM WITHIN THE 2003 MITSUBISHI GALANT BREAKS. EVERYONE WITH THIS CAR HAS OR WILL HAVE THIS PROBLEM. *TR

CLICKING NOISE FROM THE VENTS WHEN SWITCHING TEMPERATURE GAUGE FROM COLD TO HOT. NO HOT AIR COMING FROM VENTS. FAN CONTINUES TO BLOW COLD AIR WHILE CAR IS AT OPERATING TEMPERATURE. NOT THE FIRST TIME IT HAS HAPPENED. HEAT WAS RESTORED AFTER A FEW MONTHS JUST IN TIME BEFORE THE WINTER LAST YEAR. IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN THIS FALL AND COLD AIR CONTINUES TO BLOW AS WINTER APPROACHES. *TR

I HAVE A 2003 MITSUBISHI GALANT WITH PROBLEMS WITH THE HEATER CONTROL MOTOR, FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND THERE HAVE BEEN AN EXUBERANT AMOUNT OF THESE HAVING THIS ISSUE AND IT SHOULD BE RECALLED BY MITSUBISHI SEEING THEY CHARGED 22,000 FOR THIS CAR AND IT IS NOW ONLY WORTH 3000. *TR

2003 MITSUBISHI GALANT NO HEAT, I'VE BEEN ONLINE AND THERE A HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. I'VE BEEN TO THE DEALER AND INDEPENDENT GARAGE AND TALKING BETWEEN 300/ 1000 TO FIX WITH SO MANY COMPLAINTS THE DEALER SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. *TR

I HAVE AN 03 BLACK MIT. GALANT AND THE PAINT HAS FADED ON THE TRUNK AND TOP CLOSE TO THE SUNROOF. I KEEP MY CAR UNDER A CARPORT. THE CAR IS NOT PAID FOR AND IT ALREADY LOOKS VERY OLD. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED OTHER CARS THIS SAME MODEL AND COLOR AND THE PAINT IS FADING TOO. IT SEEMS THE COMPANY WOULD REPAINT THESE CARS SINCE IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE PAINT WASN'T OF ANY QUALITY.

I'VE OWNED MY 2003 MITSUBISHI GALANT LS SINCE NEW AND MY HEATER HAS STOPPED WORKING. THE CAR HAS 60000 MILES ON IT AND I NOTICED THAT THERE WERE MANY PEOPLE THAT HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. *JB

MY PASSENGER SIDE DOOR STARTED SMOKING AND IT MELTED THE WINDOW WIRING AND DOOR LOCK CLICKER AND THE MOTOR IN THE WINDOW AND MELTED THE DOOR A LITTLE BIT. IT SHOULD HAVE BLOWN THE FUSE FOR THE WINDOW BUT IT DIDN'T IT STARTED SMOKING . *TR

HEAT STOPPED WORKING ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO DUE TO WHAT I THINK IS A HEATER CORE OR HEAT VALVE ISSUE. *JB
