My 2005 Galant has been experiencing brake problems I reported it to Mitsubishi dealer before my warranty expired and they told me there was nothing wrong just a glaze. I finally took it somewhere else to get the brakes done they replaced the pads 2 weeks later the brakes started making noise since then I have taken them back for the same problem over and over again all they tell me, its a glaze but the noise gets louder. The engine also makes a clicking noise that doesn't sound right.

There is a recall on certain 2005 Galants but I was told not mine. I am having the same problems with my brakes as the recall states. I have had it to the dealer and told the first time that there was nothing wrong. The second time they ordered a timing part but I feel that is not the problem. I go tomorrow to have the part put on. I fear for my safety with these malfunctioning brakes. They make a terrible grinding noise and my car lurches forward about 4 inches and is only getting worse. I asked just because my car isn't in the recall it doesn't mean I am not having the same problem. How long do I need to ride around in a car with damaged brakes before the problem is corrected. I have not had an accident yet and would like to get this problem fixed so I don't end up in one.
