1999 Ford Contour Steering Problems

“I was never notified of any recalls. I have had to pay out of pocket expenses lost control of vehicle replaced starter and brakes several times feels like suspension is falling apart and never notified I have small and older children shameful. These events starting taking place when I purchased the vehicle in 1999 arm control 3 times replaced I was lied to by Ford and said I must of hit a bump bump my bump 3 times almost dead.”

“Total steering loss,on slight curved rd. Total right wheel and everything attached came off. Even the collision repair shop said they never saw anything like that. I am susan canales and have my son's power of attorney he is in the navy and at sea right now thank you.”

“Repeated stalling, missing & loss of power appears mostly when it's very hot out & car has been driven a lot. Rough idle even under no load in neutral. No indicators light except during stall which happens even with clutch depressed. Missing is most noticeable during acceleration or steady highway speeds, even with cruise on. Car sometimes shakes at high speed (70mph). Multiple alignments never show same results. Dealer can never duplicate, says I am dumping clutch to stall & loss of power is due to A/C. They also claim excessive tire wear is due to my driving habits. ( DOT number: )”

“Dash was replaced, but it was installed improperly. Also, air conditioning system has leak, and will be replaced next spring. Vehicle has had the following repairs or replacements: wheel bearings, brakes, tie rods, dashboard, intake manifold, passenger rear struts, left front dome lamp switch, left front speakers, and oygen sensor.”

“On july 8, vehicle was vibrating. Took to dealer they said it was a known problem. Consumer noticed problem again on july 11 when backing out of drveway and coming up to a stop sign. Consumer let off brake, and car was bouncing and vibrating. Entire tire was flipping around. Towed to dealer, and they said tie rod was broken.”
