1998 Ford Contour GL review from North America
"To me it's a OK car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The timing belt had to be replaced.
There were lots of recalls on many things.
General comments?
Other than that the car had been great it has 107,000 and still runs like new. I have always taken care of it changed the oil keep it tuned up and that has seemed to keep it running great. people just don't get it just because it's a ford doesn't mean its junk... all you have to do is take care of a car and it will last you. it doesn't matter what make or model it is.
