Complaint Description: i have replaced the pads and turned the rotors on a 2001 mitsubishi galant de to correct the problem with the car shimmying and poor braking ability. this corrected the problem for only 5,000 miles. i can see that i am going to have to replace or turn the rotors again and possibly replace the brakes. i have a friend who is having the exact same problem with his 2001 mitsubishi galant es. i have also talked to other owners who are experiencing the exact same problem. after i ahve found this web site i will refer them to write a complaint. this has been very frustraiting because there does not seem to be a resolution and the car is recently out of the warranty at only 36,000 miles. i would like to know if there are other people who are experiencing the same problems and if they have found a resolution ?*ak .
