FEARING THAT THERE MIGHT BE A FIRE HAZARD, I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALER. HE SAID MY CAR, PER IT'S VIN NO., HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED; SO HE DID NOTHING ABOUT MY CONCERNS.    NOW, A WEEK AGO TODAY (12/3/09), AND A WEEK OR SO AFTER BRINGING  MY CAR IN FOR THE FIRST TIME,  I WAS DRIVING 20-30 MPH, DOWN A CITY   STREET IN MY SMALL TOWN, WHEN, SUDDENLY, I HEARD A POPPING SOUND;  AND THE ELECTRICITY IN THE CAR TURNED OFF. THE CAR STOPPED DEAD IN IT'S  TRACKS, AS I WAS TURNING INTO A PARKING LOT!  I TRIED TO PUT THE HAZARD  LIGHT ON; BUT IT WOULD NOT TURN ON. THE STEERING WHEEL & STEERING COLUMN WERE VERY HOT. I TURNED THE KEY, IN THE IGNITION, IN AN ATTEMPT TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON.  INSTEAD, IT MADE ANOTHER POPPING SOUND; AND DIED COMPLETELY! SMOKE STARTED COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. WHEN I OPENED THE HOOD, THE BATTERY WATER WAS BOILING OVER, SIZZLING, AND SMOKING.  WHEN I CALLED MY INS. ROADSIDE ASSIST, AND TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED, THEY TOLD ME TO CALL THE FIRE DEPT.  SO, I CALLED THE FIRE DEPT. THEY CAME AND DISCONNECTED THE  BATTERY; AND NOTED THAT THE BATTERY WAS SMOKING. THEY PUSHED MY   CAR TO A PARKING SPOT, FROM WHERE I HAD IT TOWED IT TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALER. THE FORD DEALER MAN SAID THEY COULD DO NOTHING ABOUT IT; AND I LEFT IT THERE, IN THEIR PARKING LOT. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR, FOR FEAR IT MIGHT START ON FIRE, SINCE I HAVE SEEN, ON THE INTERNET, THAT THE '95 FORD CONTOUR HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR IGNITION FIRES!!!  BEING CAUGHT IN A BURNING FIRE, WITH MY SEAT BELT ON, IS VERY SCARY TO ME!    THE QUESTIONS, AT THE BOTTOM, RIGHT, OF MY SCREEN, ARE CUT OFF, SO I  CAN ONLY SEE HALF OF THE QUESTIONS, STARTING WITH:   \"WAS THERE....\"  \"PROPERTY DA....\"  \"WAS THERE A...\"  \"REPORTED TO....\"    I'M SORRY,I HAVE NO WAY OF ANSWERING YOUR QUESTIONS, HERE. *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"1995","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"CONTOUR","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
