Check timming belt

I bought a galant in 1999 the 5spd w/sunroof. I wanted a family car with a soorty look so I was attracted to the Galant. It ran well causing little problems alternator, battery, brake pads, rotors, and lights. It had 124k on it when I got it. I heard a squealing sound one day and had the belts changed so I thought but they did not change the timming belt and by it being a 5spd it jumped timming and it was the end. I had just paid it off too.

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.

Since the purchase of my 1996 Mitsubishi Galant, I have had absolutely no major problems with it. I make sure it has its regular check- ups, and it has been good to me. My husband loves the power behind this vehicle. Looks are definitely deceiving! It's quiet, easy to maintain, and 'sporty'. I have been searching for a 'family' car, but haven't found one that can match my Galant. I would have to go greatly out of my price range to get something in comparison.
Decent, eloquently decent

I just bought the car a few days ago and it runs beautifully and handles like a true sports car should. I found it to be very stylish and affordable and it also seems very easily serviceable. The only thing is that there is no power anything except steering and brakes and The A/C doesn't work well.
95 Galant first car

For my first car, I ended up buying a 95' galant. I had looked into many other cars, and when I finally test drove the galant, I decided to buy it. The car is incredibly powerful for only 141 horses and a 4 cylinder, especially mated to the 5-speed manual. The only problems I've had were with my alternator, which froze because i left the car sitting in the cold, through snow in the winter for 3 months without running it. Otherwise, the car has been extremely reliable, and already, I have a potential buyer when I sell it.
