Galant

  • miles
Thermostat stuck causing engine overheating. Also, ac runs cold and then warm in city driving. On the highway it is cold. A severe vibration occurs in city driving with the air conditioner on also. I have to turn the air off to make it quit. I contacted the dealer about both of these problems and because it is not under 36K miles they will not do anything else about it.
