Good Car to Own
I bought this car used (it was an off- lease vehicle) several years ago. I have not had any problems (except the typical maintainance) with it, except for a recall notice on my gas tank. It rides fairly smooth. It does burn about 1/2 quart of oil every 1000 miles or so.
Car w/ Problems
I purchased this vehicle used & later found out that it had been in an accident.There are some problems w/ the transmission & my air conditioning is slipping away. I've received a couple recall notices regarding the bearings & I've had to invest way too much money on this car.
Nice car!
Trouble free auto 144000 miles. All power accessories work fine. Double wishbone suspension at all corners make this car very agile. With H rated and traction A tires this baby loves to be tossed through the curves, and at it's limits sliding is predictable, smooth and controlled with minimum understeer. A drivers car! Four valves per cylinder, sequential electronic fuel injection and factory headers for intake and exhaust translate into tire spinning low power torque when the pedal is stomped. All original power train and exhaust (stainless steel) Real reliable car. All paid for and not interested in a new car.
Blue Smoke
I bought the car used with 46k miles and it's been very reliable. Having the timing belt changed could be a bit expensive at $450 each recommended service change. Warning! Somewhere around the 96K, I started seeing blue smoke coming from the tailpipe. The dealership told me it was the valves and it would cost $3000 to repair. A friend told me it was common problem with most late model Mitsubishi vehicles. And to take notice on my way home, I took notice and it appeares that all the late models I saw did smoke.
Great Car
I bought my '95 Galant with 19,000 miles on it and drove to about 150,000 (and that was after being rearended by a semi around 60,000 miles). The only complaint I had with the car was expensive timing belts and finally a fluke that caused me to sell it. My wife took the car one day, she called me and said it was running funny. So,we had it towed to a local shop. They said that the a/c belt had come off.When the a/c belt broke, it got sucked up under the timing belt cover. The shop replaced the timing belt and the pulleys, but it never ran right after that, so I sold it. Had it not been for that fluke I'd still be driving it today.
