problem #1

Contour 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 105,000 miles
Bought a 1997 Ford Contour and 4 days later the head gasket blew. After being in shop over a month and many other problems repaired I finally got car back and the very next day the head gasket blew again within 2 miles from my house.
