1999 Ford Contour SE review from North America
"A nice deal especially the svt"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Well at first we have a problem with a real bad humming noise when it gets cold. I wish I knew what it is. No one can help me. I've asked the dealerships and none of them know anything. Dealerships and garages suck. The only ones that I can get to help me is the ones who have had this problem before. The humming noise is coming from the air intake. When I took the filter out it got twice as loud. I wish I knew what is was. If you can help me email me at Cobrafanatik22@aol.com thanks.
The doors also squeaked a lot when opened. I just have to keep greasing them up.
General comments?
Other than that this car is great.
