On a contour?
My 91 Dodge Ram 250 has a lot of grease fittings. I've checked and Wal-Mart greases the front end every time but I haven't crawled underneath and checked the universal joints or checked to see if they remove the fitting and check the rear axle lube. I usually just trust them to do all of the work.

You've got a good wal-mart. Our wal-mart can't even balance wheels correctly.
Btw, I wouldn't trust anybody.

I wish I could do the work and maintenance myself. I have pinched nerve in my back that causes a lot of pain if I use my back too much.

and make sure you have an extra set of keys with you when you take your vehicle to Walmart or you might end up like we did....stuck at a Walmart in Florida(we lived in South Carolina) for 4 hours because they lost my keys(left them in another customer's van who finally found them a week later) We had to wait for Ford to bring another key, luckily we bought our locking gas cap from Walmart, and the key from a new gas cap that was the same one I had actually fit and opened my gas cap  but also made them pay for a new alarm remote, and pay for a door key for my job. They wound up paying me $75 cash for the keys and gave me $100 gift card for my trouble. All that for them to repair a slow leak in my tire.

At least they made it right to whatever extent possible. Lotsa places will send a tourist down the road. The infamous, "WTH, we'll never see THEM again anyway." attitude. I hate that...
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.
