I have a Ford Contour 1995 manufactured in 12/94 I have some complaints about my car. There are some recalls out on this vehicle. But there are not list for my Contour VIN # but I have the same problems. My car was taken to the robins Ford dealership in glenolden, pa for not starting. After they inspected the vehicle they called me and told me that I have a wiring harness defect that caused it to short circuit my spark plugs. They told me that the wires for this vehicle is out dated and for have been replacing them with updated wires. But they have not issued a recall for my VIN# but it is a known manufacturer defect with this car. I also have some problems that have just started that Ford have recalls on but again not my so called VIN#. my seat belts on this car have been breaking off at the connection tab as well as my defroster not working. Both have recalls on them. I also have concerns about other recalls they have open on this car that are safty haszerds one for which is a fuel tank assembly filler that can cause a flash fire and a fuel tank leakage that can cause a fire they also have a recall for their air bags. I have children that makes me very concered about their safty in this car. And the lack of concern by their Ford manufacturer. How can I get this things fix so their will be no accidents.
