Wow, amazing to see some Contours haven't had any problems. I think mine has had the most repairs on it. As I just finished paying $700 for repairing the air conditioning, my airbag light is now blinking. It's so funny, after 1 thing is fixed, another thing pops up. I bought my Contour back in 1997, and I have replaced everything under the hood at least 2 times, (except for water pump and alternator - replaced only 1 time). 166,000 miles later. If I didn't like my car so much and if it wasn't paid for, I'd have gotten rid of it back in 1997.
But, if I'd buy another car, I'd just have to fix NEW problems. All cars have them.
Also, my car was probably made on a Monday. :rolleyes:
