NHTSA CRASH TEST RESULTS
Overall Safety Rating

Frontal crash ratings:
Driver: *  *  *  *  Passenger: *  *  *  * 

Side crash ratings:
Driver: *  *  *  Rear Passenger: *  *  *  * 

Results based on a 35 MPH frontal crash and 38.5 MPH side crash. Results are reported in a range of one to five stars, with five stars indicating the best crash protection for vehicles within the same weight class. This test used driver and passenger belts and airbags.

NHTSA ROLLOVER RESISTANCE RATING: *  *  *  * 

The Rollover Resistance Rating is an estimate of your risk of rolling over if you have a single vehicle crash. It does not predict the likelihood of that crash. The Rollover Resistance Rating essentially measures vehicle characteristics of center of gravity and track width to determine how "top-heavy" a vehicle is. The more "top-heavy" the vehicle, the more likely it is to roll over. The lowest rated vehicles (1-star) are at least four times more likely to roll over than the highest rated vehicles (5-stars).

2003 Mitsubishi Galant Review
"Mitsubishi's top-selling car closes 2003 as a compact sedan in preparation for a 2004 redesign as a midsize car. The '03 comes with a 4-cyl engine in DE, ES, and LS models. A V6 powers ES V6, LS V6, and sporty GTZ V6 versions. All use automatic transmission. V6 models include 4-wheel disc brakes. ABS is standard on LS and GTZ models and is optional on the ES models. Front side airbags are exclusive to LS models and the GTZ, where they're standard. Traction control is standard on the LS V6 and GTZ and is optional for the ES V6 in an All Weather Package that also includes ABS and heated mirrors. Leather upholstery is standard for the GTZ, optional for LS models. Available for ES Galants is a Sun and Sound Package that includes a sunroof, upgraded audio, and alloy wheels, all of which are standard on LS models and the GTZ.

Number of Units Affected 11,896
Summary On certain passenger vehicles, the fuel return line hose fitting on the electric fuel pump may be restricted, causing excessive fuel pressure to build up in the fuel injection system. Excessive fuel pressure may result in a leak in the fuel return hose. Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire.
Remedy Dealers will inspect the fuel pump pressure. Those vehicles exhibiting higher than normal fuel pump pressure will receive fuel pump modifications. The manufacturer has reported that owner notification is expected to begin during December 2003. Owners may contact Mitsubishi at 1-800-222-0037 or Mitsubishi Caribbean at 1-800-981-0452.
