Consumer Description

DASH WARPED ON 2000 FORD CONTOUR. I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW IN FEB. OF 2001 AND HAD THE DASH REPLACED ONCE ALREADY WHEN IT WAS COVERED UNDER FORD'S WARRANTY. THE 2ND TIME IT HAPPENED FORD REFUSED TO HELP AS MY WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. THE DASH IS SEVERELY WARPED TO THE POINT WHERE IT'S HITTING THE WINDSHIELD. CONSIDERING MY HEIGHT, IT HAS CERTAINLY HAD AN EFFECT ON MY VISION OF THE ROAD. IT ALSO HAS AN ADVERSE IMPACT ON THE DEFROSTER FUNCTION. THE FRONT OF THE DASH IS NOW BEGINNING TO WARP AS WELL JUST ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL. NUMEROUS OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BUT FORD REFUSES TO HELP. PLEASE HELP!!!!*JB
