I purchased my car in 03'. I own a 2002 Mitsubishi Galant which has oxidation (fading paint) on the roof and side panels. The oxidation started in 04'. the dealership has refused to fix the problem.

I have a 2002 Mitsubishi Galant, the knob that controls the air temperature in the car used to make a clicking noise when being turned from cold to hot & vice versa, it stopped making that noise and now I no longer have heat. I have searched the internet high & low and have found lots of complaints that this is a well known problem for these cars and that it is the heater control motor. I was told to file a complaint about the problem.
