Nothin personal dude. Water pump failure is pretty common on all cars. Have you ever changed the coolant? Rancid collant can each most of your cooling system to bits.

No, just on Contours it seems.
Before it was involved in an accident and then she sold it, my Mom had 146,000 on her 90 Chevy Corsica, the water pump failed at 142,000.
My uncle had 112,000 on his 1991 pick-up when he sold it, still had the original water pump.
So you see water pumps from eariler model years last longer than on newer Contours. Doesnt make sense does it, you think it would have gotten better over the years.
Mine hasnt failed yet only at 63k, but hoepfully it doesnt fail cause I cant afford a repair bill.
