 At 22 years of age I purchased my 
first new car, a Ford Contour.  
Since then I have had nothing 
but problems both with the car and 
dealing with Ford. A quick 
summary of problems with the car: 
constant wind noise on the front 
passenger door, water leaks into the 
trunk, air conditioner went after 1 
year, rattling noise while 
accelerating, clogged catalytic 
converter causing my damage to my 
exhaust manifold. In addition, 
dealing with Ford and any Ford Service 
dealer that I have brought my car to 
has been a nightmare.
