Just bought a 2002 Galant.
Hey guys. As the title states, I just recently bought a 2002 Galant. I'm already having some problems with the rotors. I posted about that over in the wheels and brakes forum. I understand that brake problems, especially with the rotors, are common but my question here is what are the other top most common problems with 2002 Galants? I want to know what to keep my eyes open for. By the way, I know nothing about cars. I'm a 21 year old female and this Galant is my first car ever.

Trust me... U'll know if ur car was mistreated.... How does it run? Does the transmission shift smoothly.... Just to be on the safe side i would change out all the fluids
