Complaint Description: my 1996 mitsubishi galant had several problems including, brake pads had to be changed more than usual, transmission completely failed while parked. in addition, the windows /windshield were constantly foggy. the start key could only be taking out by pressing the break. i had problems with the power locks, they will not open, leaks from the sunroof. the horn completely stopped working after three years. the mitsubishi dealer never issued a ball joint recall which i now found out was defective with the car and after returning my vehicle upon my lease termination they are requesting 1000 + dollars for wear and tear etc. the dealer has not properly followed guidelines and are been sued because of these failures and the customers who purchased these cars are been charged more money by the dealer. .
