Consumer Description

I BOUGHT A 1999 FORD CONTOUR, AND WHEN I BOUGHT IT I WAS INFORMED THAT THE DASH WAS COMING UP, BUT THEY WERE ON RECALL. THEN ABOUT A WEEK AGO I FOUND OUT THAT MY CAR IS NOT ON THAT RECALL LIST. EVER SINCE I DID BUY IT IN JANUARY 2003 THE DASH HAS COME UP EVEN MORE.THE ENTIRE TOP OF THE DASH IS WARPED.I HAVE TRIED EPOXY, BUT THE WHOLE DASH JUST NEEDS TO BE REPLACED,IT'S SO BAD. I DON'T AGREE WITH THAT BECAUSE IT IS A DEFAULT ON THE MAKERS END. I THINK THAT IT IS A BIG SAFETY HAZARD SINCE THERE ARE AIRBAGS UNDER THE DASH. WHY IS THIS NOT ON A RECALL LIST? CAUSE THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR MY CHILDREN AND I. PLEASE CALL ME WITH INFORMATION.
