1997 Ford Contour UNCERTAIN review from North America

"This is the biggest lemon that ford has ever built"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Interior wore extremely poorly.

Water-pump is impossible to change due to the excessively cramped engine compartment, replaced (now) for the second time.

Over-all this car is a major lemon!!!

General comments?

This car is one of ford's worse vehicles they have ever allowed to come off of their assembly line.

The interior is impossible to keep clean.
