Yeah I ya man. My car is a piece of [censored] to, every other day some [censored] breaks. First time someone pulls in front of me and I can hit them and be confident that my car will get totalled I'm doing it. I want a Toyota.
Umm you have an 8 year old car. No sh!t it's going to need parts.
DITTO
Yes, 8 years old with 64k. I know somethings will break and it doesnt matter how many miles are on it. Like a vacuum line those break by age mainly not miles, but a power window switch at 64k, only on a Contour.
OMG, I am sick of this. From what you have told me you use your power windows 7-10 times A DAY! My brother had a 92 lebarion in 1996 and we had to replace ALL of the switches and ALL of the motors because we used them so often. ITâ??S NOT UNCOMMOIN. My mom has a 98 Pontiac Grand prix GT with power windows, about 1 year after she got it brand new she had to replace a window switch. Power windows arenâ??t perfect; in fact, itâ??s the reason why I made sure my first car didnâ??t have them, because I knew if they broke, I wasnâ??t going to fix them. Itâ??s a good thing that you like Toyota, they are good cars. But our contours are unique; sure we have to work on them a little more often then some other cars, but so what? It just means we are more mechanically inclined and when you get another car, and something on it breaks, you will know how to replace it, and not have to dish out the cash for a shop. I bought my 96 GL tour KNOWNING I was going to have to do work on it, I had to replace the timing belt about 2 months after I started driving it, then my plugs wires and coil, which was planned. My right back brake wasnâ??t planned, but that was like 60$ and I did that with the help of my uncle and father, You should know by now that ALL cars are money pits, and ALL cars that are getting older are going to need to be worked on, some more then others. If you hate your contour so much, sell it and buy something else, donâ??t bother us with you constant whining about one little tiny thing being wrong.
I really didnâ??t want to sound rude on this, or i'm not trying to offend you at all. I just want to set the record straight, all of us are sick of hearing about one little thing going wrong with your car and you want it to explode or something. "My power window switch died, now I wish my car gets totaled." I think more then one of us see something wrong with that quote.
