Thanks anyway, But i already did all that, the only thing i haven't tried is going to a dealer in person.
The warranty start was as i thought,September 25,1995
they just wont budge the service manager at the original dealer said that if i could talk to a person thats had it done AFTER the 10years and find out how they did it to call him back, After he said He could not and if he could he didnt know how,
I dont think im gonna get it, but im gonna try at a 2nd dealer in person, Ill probably end up taping them up ever so carefully and hope the ones i cant see dont touch anything. and IF they DO, Bye bye Contour. It just doesn't make sense to pay 2000 bucks on a car thats only worth 1200 in good shape..
Id like to have a truck anyway, Not saying i dont like the contour, I do very much its a fun car and great gas mileage. But I bet trucks are allot easy to work on for us DIY'ers its not so tight underneath there so it would be easier to do oil changes,transmission and cooling sys flushes. and i would'nt think ( haven't looked) its very tight under the hood. I tell you one thing my 2004 Suburban is a dream, I don't do the work on it but that thing is bigger than some apartments under there.. lol
Well Thanks anyway, This really disappoints me. But on the brighter note the fine service manager said that he couldn't do anything, but he said they would be glad to wrap the wires backup, FOR A SMALL CHARGE. Im like Heck No. -- and IF i were to pay to have that done i wouldnt take it to him.
And i started telling him what was going on and describing it and told him the positive battery terminal cable was even cracking and he said so? most cars dont even have insulation on the battery cable!!!! <--- WHAT? You smoke'n somth'in jack?
I told him about the cooling fan wires being bare and that when he said if it bothered me so much then i could bring it in for the re insulating as i mentioned above.
Bah, Ive never liked that dealer anyway.
