I tried an American car and it let me down. As I write this I am looking for another Camry. The biggest let down is a total lack of dealer support. I stated to the dealer that two repairs of defects (out of warranty) in 3 months was poor, but two separate dealers didn't seem to care. They seemed to have the attitude that it happens to them all. I am used to getting over 150,000 miles from Toyotas with no problems. I enjoy driving the car, but not taking it to the dealer.
When I read this, I thought that maybe I submitted it without remembering it. This is exactly what happen to my car. I will never buy another Ford as long as I live. The service from the dealership has been terrible. I took it in 3 times for these same issues and nothing was fixed but I had paid a total of $350. Finally the fourth time was a charm and for only $141. What a bargain.
I sold a Toyota Camery for this car. My old Camery hasn't had any problems and the person I sold it to drives over 100 miles a day. I drive 10.
I bought a used 1995 ford contour gl 2.5 v6...the car had 34k miles when I bought it... two days after purchase I replaced the cooling fan... and directly after that it blew a head gasket... the dealer did nothing... also the sending unit for the temperature gauge went out all of this happened within two weeks of my purchase and of course I bought the car as is my other car was an 89 CHEVY cavalier with 179k miles on it it hasn't missed a lick and I gave it to my brother for free and he drives it everyday.
