“Fuel gauge stopped working. While droping it of to get repaired, the service person said, wow I got another one this morning for exactly the same problem. Odd? I think not.”
NHTSA complaint #747218, filed 2001-06“The contact owns a 2000 Mitsubishi Galant. The contact stated that the vehicle's dashboard began cracking soon after the warranty expired in 2004. The dashboard has continued to crack. In july of 2005, the fuel filler door detached and the cd player stopped operating. After being informed that her warranty did not cover any of these components, she decided not to take action. She is pursuing it now after realizing that several others are experiencing the same failures. The VIN and engine size were unknown. The current mileage is 99,900 and failure mileage was 38,000.”
