Consumer Description

I BOUGHT A 2002 MITSUBISHI GALANT I TOOK CARE OF IT BY KEEPING IT WASHED AND WAXED AND AFTER 6 MONTHS I HAD THE CAR I STARTED TO SEE SOME SPOTS ON MY CAR STARTING TO FADE,A YEAR LATER IT LOOKED AS IF I HAD MY CAR FOR ABOUT 8 YEARS BECAUSE THE PAINT JOB IS REALLY BAD. I SEE ALOT OF CARS DAILY THAT LOOKS LIKE MINE AND I KNOW THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE PAINT THAT MITSUBISHI USED TO PAINT THESE CARS BUT THEY AREN'T DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT AND I THINK THAT THAT IS WRONG. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF GALANTS OUT THERE MAYBE MORE AND THEY ACT AS IF NOTHINGS WRONG, I FEEL LIKE THERE WRONG AND THEY KNOW IT THEY JUST DON'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT AND I'M CLEARLY TIRED OF IT AND THINK SOMEONE SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE TO ME BECAUSE I CAN UNDERSTAND MAYBE 1 OR 10 CARS BUT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT A WHOLE LOT MORE THEN THAT AND IF THEY'RE NOT GOING TO OWN IT TO THERE RESPONSIBILITY THAN I THINK I NEED TO GET ME A LAWYER AND LET HIM TAKE OVER MINE AND EVERYONE ELSE'S CASE. *TR
