When the left turn signal is turned on sometimes the headlights automatically go off. However, when turning turn signal switch off headlights come on.
This galant has a defective column switch lever that controls lights, turn signals and wipers. There was a recall on this item with a the federal safety agency campaign id number of 99v305001. Whereas, the lever fails causing the directional lamps to not self-cancel or operate, head lamps that do not turn off which causes the battery to die and windshield washers that operate continuosly or do not turn off. Dealer is supposed to replace the defective lever with a redisidned switch. The recall supposedly only affected galants built between 05/1998 to 10/1999. My galant was manufactured, according to mitsubishi, in 11/1999. It is apparent that they continued to use this defective part past the 10/1999 cutoff date. The dealer and mitsubishi have said that I must pay for the repair of this defective part. I am asking the federal safety agency to investigate this dangerous defect further and extend the recall coverage to all 2000 galant vehicles regardless of manufacturing date.
While traveling durning rain and without any indication windshield wipers /high beams/parking lights, and fog lamps failed. Dealer has bee notifed. Please provide further information.
