Mom just bought a 95 Contour with V6 and automatic transmisson about 2 months ago. She called me in tears last nite saying not only did her transmission go out, but some low life hit her car parked in the Walmart parking lot and didn't even let a note. Not just a door ding, but creased half the length of the car! Anyhow, my question, her car only has 40,000 miles on it. Is this transmission known to have problems?
