ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, ABOVE THE REAR WHEEL, THE PAINT BEGAN TO BUBBLE AND EVENTUALLY RUST. THIS BEGAN APPROXIMATELY ONE YEAR AFTER PURCHASE. IT IS NOW RUSTING MORE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO AND THEY TOLD ME IT MUST HAVE HAD A BAD REPAIR JOB. HOWEVER, I RECENTLY SAW ANOTHER GALANT WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM IN THE SAME LOCATION. *JB

I HAVE A 99 BLACK GALANT AND THE EARLIER PART OF 2005 I STARTED SEEING MY PAINT FADE OFF. IT STARTED ON THE ROOF AND GRADUALLY SPEAD TO THE TRUNK. NOW THE PAINT HAS FADED OFF BOTH AREAS. I WANT IT PAINTED SO I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT MY CAR AND ASKED DID THEY HAVE A RECALL NUMBER BUT HE TOLD ME HE WOULD NEED THE LAST 8 NUMBERS OF MY VIN TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL. I DIDN'T TELL HIM WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. SO AFTER THAT I GOT ON THE INTERNET TO SEE WHAT I COULD FIND AND WAS SURPRISED TO SEE THREE OTHERS COMPLAINTS ABOUT GALANTS. I HAVE A FRIEND THAT ALSO HAS A BLACK GALANT WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THERE SHOULD BE SOMETHING THE DEALERSHIP COULD DO BECAUSE THERE ARE TOO MANY GALANTS WITH THIS PROBLEM. *NM

THE COMPLAINT IS OVER THE PAINT JOB, I HAVE NOTICE SEVERAL DIFFERENT "BLACK OR DARK COLORED" GALANT HAVE MAJOR DAMAGE TO THE PAINT JOB, WHERE THE CLEAR COAT HAS TOTALLY BEEN DESTROYED BY OXIDATION. "THIS IS A MANUFACTURE'S FLAW!!" *NM

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER SWITCH/WIRING IS BROKE. THERE IS AN NHTSA RECALL, #99V305001 CONCERNING THE WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER: SWITCH; WIRING HOWEVER THE RECALL DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS AGAIN. THE HUB CAPS ALSO WILL NOT STAY ON. THE CONTACT HAS REPLACED NUMEROUS HUBCAPS. THE DEALER DOES NOT OFFER A SOLUTION, THEREFORE, THERE HAVE BEEN NO REPAIRS TO THE VEHICLE.
