Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General General 99MO3 Wiring Harness Recall - Rejected, now what?

I left my car at the dealership this morning so that they can look at my car and determine if I "need" the recall done to my car. I came back later today and they told me that it doesnt fall under the categories. He fed me a bunch of BS and was telling me how my catylic converter may be the reason why I failed my emissions tests. I called him a bullsh~tter because he knew that the emissions only tested me for the OBDII and failed me based off of the codes. Many of the codes were for circuit failure. I pointed out the wire that fell out of my IAC (and I had to tape in with a nail to keep it in), and the bare positive wires coming from the terminal. I told him that its a recall and it has to be done, and he goes on to tell me that its not a recall. So we are sitting there arguing like little kids "its a recall" "no it isnt" "yes it is" "no it isnt" "yes it is". I backed up all that I had to say, I told him about the information I know about the car from this website filled with Ford Technicians and he still tried to feed me some B.S. I got the manager and he got the guy to bring my car around and pop the hood so that we can look at it. The man driving said "be careful, dont pull out that wire, the car wont idle without it". Eventually they told me that it wont be done unless there is a lot of cracking and bare wires already touching eachother.

Am I wrong in this situation or are they? Should I try a different dealership? Reading at this site, I see that everybody that brought their car for this recall got it done.

I am thinking about taking off my UIM and having my buddy tow my car over there with the UIM off exposing the cracked harness under there.

Help will definately be appreciated, thanks guys.

EDIT: I just remembered, there are some wires completely exposed under the steering wheel connecting to the fuse box. Is this a part of the wiring harness? They say they have to replace wires all over the engine and through the interior.
