I purchased my 2003, mitsubshi, Galant 1 1/2 years ago and I'm having problems with the paint fading on the doors and the hood of the car. After 1 year of having the car it started to fade. My car is a black mitsubshi and with this being a black car the fading really stands out.

I was with my son leaving a store, while it was 38 degrees outside. After we got in the car and I turned on the heater, it began making a fluttering sound under the dash as if the vents were opening up. With the knob all the way to the red position and the other knob in the window defrost position, I waited for the windows to defrost and the heat to make the car warm. The windows never defrosted and the heat never came on. I had to drive home with the window down in the cold, and my son freezing in the back seat. I had it checked out and the mechanic told me this is a very popular problem with this car.

I have a 2003 Mitsubishi Galant and already the heater is gone in it, I have searched the internet and learned that many others that have this vehicle has the same problem I think Mitsubishi should pay for this defect since we paid money out of A-- to replace thermostat, water hoses, etc and the problem still exist the heater only blows out cold air.

When the car is warmed up and the air conditioning is turned on the air blowing out on the floor area is much warmer than the air blowing out in the upper area of the car. In order to get cool air to come out on the floor area, you have to use one of the last two cold air conditioning settings. The problem with this setting is that the air blowing out in the upper area of the car is extremely cold. Two different dealership service departments have checked the car and they reported that this is the normal operation of the car.
