My abs light has been on continuously for many years. a search of the internet allowed me to find many others who have the same issue with the ford contour. it appears to not be specific to any one model year. my vehicle is a 1995, but i have seen internet queries for many other newer vehicles. what is in common is that the abs system on the ford contour is faulty causing one to have to spend $4,000 to get it repaired, or drive with less affective brakes. have you received any other queries about the ford contour abs failure?*ak | |||

I'm a hearing impaired driver/owner of ford '95 contour gl (low-incomer, average $21,000 a year). i've bought this car in 1997 from a minneapolis-area ford dealership (quality auto dealership in bloomington, minnesota). at the time, i had less than $10,000 to pay for a recent used car(one that is within 2-3 years after it came on the market). i tried out few cars and the white 1995 ford contour gl. the dealer insisted that '95 ford contour gl was a good buy at an affordable price. i was willing to trade up my old car to reduce the price but it was still too high for me since it didn't included other fees like the title and registration license. after a short, persuasive negotiation, i got the dealer to agree to mark down to $9995 and i accepted that. so i bought the car. after a few days, i was experiencing a problem with it, so i had it towed back to the dealership and later told me that the whole engine was bad and need to be replaced. i was stunned but they were willing to do the repair for free. it took me a week to get my car back. everything went fairly fine for the next couple years. in 1999, the air-conditioner in my car stopped working and it was too expensive to repair at the time. i moved to columbus, oh in jan. 2000. for the last 3 years, that car has become a trouble for me. one repair after the next. the biggest repair cost i've paid out was $2060.43 to replace a flywheel. i have tried to take good care of my car by taking it to jiffy lube for oil/check-ups every 3-6 months faithfully and i'm still having trouble with my car. right now, it is at another ford service because there may be defected wiring coils in my car (a dealer recall that i'm not aware of). i have kept all the service maintenance papers in file for all the repairs and services on my car. i wanted a new car and i'm not very happy. i'm tired of paying for the repairs. thank you, rob | |||

Failure of defective manifold gasket caused power assist failure in accident avoidance situation. had i not been able to swerve around stopped car, vehicle would not have stopped in time to avoid collision due to drastic reduction in braking. dealer reports that this has occurred on a number of different model years recently. gasket is unavailable for replacement for over 2 weeks because it is being redesigned. customer service stated not to take in personal that they would not cover this safety defect. the problem with this defect is that it is sudden and without notice. car ran rough for a few days, but gave no indication of potential brake failure until it was almost too late. thank you for your consideration. *ak | |||

The transmission started to shift really hard, and i noticed that the transmission fluid was low. i added fluid and the problem lessened, but was still there. also there was a strange high pitched sound coming from the transmission. as it turned out, we had a brake system failure as well. so i took the car to the dealership. after fixing the brakes (apx $600) they informed me that the transmission had to be replaced. i wanted a second opinion, so i paid for the brakes and left. a few days later while my wife was driving the car the transmission locked and destroyed itself. i had the car towed to the closest place which was aamco resulting in a $2,500 bill and a car that is still in the shop. *ak | |||

I hvae had problems ever since i first purchased the car 8 months ago, starting with engine failure due to a missing vacuum cap. next, i encountered a drive belt that was on the verge of breaking, it was severly cracked. the brake calipers were sticking causing major veering when stopping at speeds over 40, and this also resulted in warping my rotors. also, for the first 7 months, my check engine light would come on periodically, but after a couple of fuel injector cleaners, it was much better. then, on a cross country trip, the car's idle worsened, its power decreased,at a stop, the car would start having a convulsion like feel and sound, from a stop, it wouldn't accelerate until a click in the engine could be heard. then the acceleration was very lurching and sputtery. after a diagnostic, i was informed that it was not the original engine. the mechanics sent me to the dealer who found the supposed cause of the problem. $400 later, my air mass sensor was replaced and the car seemed to do much better. however, in the past couple of weeks, the check engine light stays on the entire duration of driving, and the car has continued its lurching acceleration and convulsion like problem. the unpredictableness in my car has made me somewhat fearful to drive because i'm not sure what's going to happen next, and if i can afford to fix it. i'd like to know my buyer's rights and see if there's any resolution to be had.. | |||
